Can one simply change the partition type via fdisk on an existing system
if one is going to add a new drive to RAID1 the drives?

Or must this be done during initial install?

I like this idea but I need help. 
A server of mine has just one 20GB drive.

I have 2 spare 40GB drives.  How would I make my current install on the
20GB work on the 40GB drives that I want to setup RAID1 on?

I don't want to do a fresh install as I spent alot of time on this
particular server configuring it a certain way.

Thanks,
Andy
