Yes. You can either use mdadm to create a partitionable raid device, |

or use LVM/EVMS (which would be my recommendation) to create logical |
| 7 |
volumes on the array. |

Just beware that /boot should either be it's own partition (non-raid), |
| 10 |
or on a RAID-1 array (with no partitions). Otherwise the boot loader |
| 11 |
will have trouble locating and loading the kernel. |
