There are a couple of ways;
Sneaky: add a second drive (match the first one) then run a 4r restore cd on
it.

Other: Check to see if the 4i has files called /proc/mdstat and /etc/raidtab
If /proc/mdstat is there do "cat /proc/mdstat" It should say you have the
right RAID
personality registered,
Personalities : [linear] [raid0] [raid1] [raid5] [translucent]
and that no RAID devices are currently active
/etc/raidtab can be made if it does not exist.
Each partition needs to be raid enabled (1, 3, 4, 6)
If you need a raidtab file, let me know and I'll send you one.
See: http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Software-RAID-HOWTO.html#toc4
for more information

Don't attempt to raid enable a production machine!!!
I have done this on a RedHat system, but never on a RaQ, should work though!
