{{note box|Now we will create two partitions for md1 and md2, as it is the default partitioning of SME. You can make another choice to create just one partition if you want a data disk in a raid array. At this point you will give the whole disk to the partition 1. In this case there is no need to give a boot flag (see below the flag "a")}}
