Josh,

Here ye go. Note I'm using new stuff which includes autoconfigure at boot.
Just remember you can't have / on raid without autoconfigure and you should
name /etc/raid0.conf-auto as /etc/raid0.conf to get /etc/rc to configure it
at boot time.

The commands you need to set up the initial raid set (once you've
disklabelled the disks) are:

# raidctl -C /etc/raid0.conf raid0
# raidctl -I 100 raid0
# raidctl -iv raid0
# disklabel -E raid0 # I ran fdisk -i raid0 too but it's not necessary
# newfs /dev/raid0a
# mount /dev/raid0 /mnt

After each boot you need to run raidctl -c /etc/raid0.conf raid0, but
/etc/rc does this for you if your conf file is in /etc and follows the
naming convention.
