Target Disk Mode is not really an option as TGM on an Xserve G4

Xserve G4s out with Mirrored arrays, we couldn't start with a
fresh pair of disks to install onto as a RAID pair. Perhaps a
single drive RAID mirror might work and then add in second disk
once booted up.
Have you tried it? I booted xServe G4 in target disk mode,
connected to laptop running Leopard and both bays were visible.
And Disk Utility was quite happy to create a RAID1 array for me
using those two drives.
[Note, I don't recall whether I ran Disk Utility from client OS
or installer. But it worked just fine.]
