Then use RAIDframe, which allows Root-on-RAID. But be aware, that is -not- the same as boot-on-raid, which is not possible. The value of Root-on-RAID is to continue operation in the event of an underlying drive problem associated with the root filesystem. For my RAIDframe systems, I keep a small filesystem on each drive in containing kernels and bootloader.
