It should be finding metadata on both drives but it's not. It only found metadata on /dev/sdb. You probably should send in the raw data (the last megabyte or so to Heinz on that drive. (I'm guessing /dev/sda is your other drive that it should be seeing).

Subject : Kubuntu on ICH9R RAID Problem
Date : Tue, 04 Mar 2008 12:44:29 -0800
From : Randy Broman <rbroman@xxxxxxxxxxx>
To : ataraid-list@xxxxxxxxxx
I'm attempting to install Kubuntu 7.10 to be dual booted on an existing
Windows
Ultimate system. The system has Intel ICH9R RAID, with a single RAID0
striped
volume, and two partitions, Windows/NTFS and unformatted. I booted from the
Kubuntu install disk and installed dmraid, but dmraid won't successfully
activate the RAID volume(s) - see various outputs below.
Appreciate ideas on how to fix ....
$ sudo dmraid -ay
ERROR: isw device for volume "Volume0" broken on /dev/sdb in RAID set
"isw_dhbacihbbf_Volume0"
ERROR: isw: wrong # of devices in RAID set "isw_dhbacihbbf_Volume0"
[1/2] on /dev/sdb
$ sudo dmraid -r
/dev/sdb: isw, "isw_dhbacihbbf", GROUP, ok, 488397166 sectors, data@ 0
$ sudo dmraid -ay -vvvv -dddd
