How to change Control File locations?

This is the first time that I have ever installed Oracle (Oracle 10g on linux), so bear with me. Everything installed fine, but I can not figure out from the documentation the proper way to change the paths to the Control Files, so that they reside on different hard drives.
I pretty much selected the standard install options and the Oracle installation program put all the Control Files into a single directory on a single disk. I would like to now distribute the Control Files among three separate disk drives. This was extremely easy to do for the Redo Log Groups in the "Oracle Enterprise Manager" by just specifying the new file names and paths, but if I try to do the same thing with the Control Files, there are no user changeable parameters.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am just installing Oracle so I can brush up on SQL, Forms and Reports.
