you need to know WHICH LSI logic raid controller this system has before you can get a straight answer. the Megaraid 924x/926x/927x/928x stuff is way different than the 920x/921x HBA stuff or the 97xx 3Ware based stuff. like, COMPLETELY different. megaraid in particular is a pain to configure but performs quite well.
if its megaraid, they have an AWFUL 'web' style GUI in the BIOS, or a megacli command line which is nearly as awful. in either one, you'd need to DELETE the existing raid10 logical drive, then use the command or gui to 'convert all unassigned drives to JBOD', which is something like...
megacli> cfgeachdskraid0a0
(where a0 is controller 0)

I pulled 3 of 4 drives. Restarted and it's loading Centos. Now I need to know how to setup the Linux Raid. Do I finish a complete server setup then modify the software raid, or do I need to do it on the front end?
Thanks for the help. Norm
