    never having done this, I'm not sure I'm right, but I'll take a shot.

    I think if you get the RAID array set up in the raid bios and it gets all built and sees your array as drive C, you should, I think be able to power off, plug in your other drive to the regular IDE controllers, then boot with a ghost boot disk and clone. I think you'd probably have to do a partition dump, not a disk to disk clone.

    seems reasonable. When I set up RAID mirror, I did as above and booted with win98 boot disk to FDSIK and format the raid array then install windows.
