Newbie: SuSE Sparc64 and Software RAID on Ultra 5

I am new to Linux (and any flavor of unix in general.) I am trying to set up
software RAID 1 with all my partitions. I am able to do this via YaST2, but
I cannot set up mirroring for the /boot or swap partitions. I get a message
that says "Error: you cannot use the mount points /boot and swap for RAID."
Is there a step-by-step or FAQ available for mirroring the /boot and swap
partitions? It seems rather daft to not allow this at all... Any help would
be appreciated!

Thanks...
Adam
