This message is just to let you know the drives arrived and I've
already installed ubuntu (kubuntu actually) using the schema I
describe above.

The installation was very easy -using the alternate install cd- and it
works really really well.

I've simulated drive failures and the computer continues to work as
normal. After drive re-installation, the raid is reconstructed (using
mdadd -add /dev/raid-dev /dev/partition)

The final schema for both drives is:

  partition1: raid1  /boot (256M)
  partition2 raid1  LVM  (999M)
                              swap
                              /
                              usr
                              var
                              home

HTH someone.

Best regards,
Norberto
