I don't like the idea of mirroring partitions because
replacing a disk means having to repartition/slice the disk.
To copy the partition table from hda to hdc all you need is:
sfdisk -d /dev/hda | sfdisk -f /dev/hdc
How do you replace an entire disk in a running raid?
To the OP:
The RedHat docs have a basic guide on setting up a RAID 1 mirror during
installation:
