Quick and Dirty RAID 1 on CentOS 5.2

July 23rd, 2008 mike Comments off

Had this question a couple of times this week so we decided to do a quick screencast. In this setup, there are 3 SCSI drives:

sda = 20GB
sdb = 40GB
sdc = 40GB

The OS will be installed on the sda as / and the 2 40GB drives will be setup as RAID 1 and mounted as /vmware

Need help with your setup? Email us at support@imapenguin.com.

We’re still playing with the resolution settings on Vimeo, the source video will be available for download soon…

So we all use some pasting service, but check out Gist, from Github. Each paste gets it’s own git repository. I’ve been using it all morning and love it.

Some cool features:

  • Multiple revisions
  • multiple files in a “gist”
  • Forking
  • Offline use via git
