 11. If you're going to boot from the raidset, you probably want to have an 'a' partition.  Here's the partition from my other, bootable, raidset:  11. If you're going to boot from the raidset, you probably want to have an 'a' partition.  My bootable raidset has members wd0 and wd1, which are labeled like this:
   
           5 partitions:
           #        size    offset     fstype [fsize bsize cpg/sgs]
            c: 488395120      2048     unused      0     0        # (Cyl.      2*- 484520)
            d: 488397168         0     unused      0     0        # (Cyl.      0 - 484520)

 12. You will also need to run installboot(8) to make the raidset bootable. Do this for each member drive.  Please note that installboot is run for the RAID partition on each member disk, and NOT on the raidn disk!  This also assumes that the RAID partition (the 'e' partition, see step 4 above) starts at the beginning of the whole-NetBSD 'c' partition.  If you don't do this, I don't think that the i386 MBR boot code will be able to find your bootstrap image.  13.
