    Solaris will let you mirror using 1+0 your root and other drives, as I
    had that setup with our Solaris 8 machine. However, I'm trying to
    install Solaris 9, and I can't find any way to get mirror/striping to
    work with the installation system. I've got a V880 system with 6 36GB
    FC-AL systems. I'd like to mirror some of those disks for my root
    partition and oracle partitions, but the Sun documentation is pretty
    horrible. I can't find any way to do this right now while installing
    Solaris 9. Anyone out there familiar with Sun Solaris install have any
    suggestions? Advice? Help? Etc.?
    I'm trying to do the install through the WebStart GUI.
    Thanks!
