Make matching partitions on each disk with fdisk, setting the type to FD
(raid autodetect), then 'mdadm create ...' to specify the options and
start it. See the create section in 'man mdadm'. You'll need at least
--raid-level= --raid-devices= --auto=yes.
Then you'll probably want to add an entry in /etc/fstab to mount the new
md device somewhere.
