[CentOS] MIrrored drives won't boot after installation

[Nigel Kendrick]

I'm half way to resolving this (I hope) - I removed the second drive, I have
installed Centos 4 on the remaining one and NOW I want to create a RAID 1
mirror for at least the / partition - is there a good howto on this - I
started searching via Google as soon as I discovered 'mkraid' wasn't there
any more but I've found nothing so far. Failing that I guess I'll have to
start all over again!?

I would love to have that file, also any info on how to get this done. I
need to mirror all partitions in software for a high reliability system.
