The Noob offering a bribe for help

[Earle Beason]

I have been playing with Fedora 8, still being the lin-noob here I have 
two things that I haven't been able to figure out. I would like to set 
up raid and configure it for my machine, I am using the m2n-sli deluxe 
board on a custom machine and use it as a media server for the house. 
Preemptively, yes they are better systems for this, and Fedora not set 
in stone an anybody welcomed to change my mind.  However back to the 
issue  I would like to have both Linux and M$ be able to read and write 
from the media-server. while I know the group meets regularly, I am 
unable to make any of the meetings due to other commitments. So I throw 
out the offer if anybody wish to crash my house on a Saturday evening 
and show me what i have been doing wrong, I'll throw up some Pizza and 
Beer, or any other drink that may be desirable.

Also if anybody is interested and has rug rats to deal with. My wife 
wouldn't mind watching them for a couple of hours, the house has been 
kid tested and the walls have already been drawn on
