Compare http://www.texsoft.it/index.php?c=hardware&m=hw.storage.boot-raid-squeeze&l=it which should be still similar in Debian 7. If you are new to RAID, also simulate the case of disk failure and replacement. The step ``Install GRUB to all disks'' is better described as # dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc Also, if you manually want to create a RAID 1 of two partitions use # mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=1 --raid-devices=2 \ /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1 HTH Linux-Fan
