I did give you the error in the kernel log in the original email .. it
was in quotes (the very last line). Here is more, along with some
superflous logs. This was stop and a start of the raid array, and two
attempted mounts of the file system:

[270303.640240] EXT4-fs (md0): VFS: Can't find ext4 filesystem
I am running this on Linux Mint 12 .. I don't know the kernel version
as I cannot boot so I am booting of whatever I downloaded from Mint's
website (13 rc I think) off a pen drive to try and save my data.
mint mnt # uname -a

I ran the cat of /proc/partitions and copied the data from previous
emails to the linux-raid DL (which forwarded me onto this one). Must
have gotten it before the raid was working. Here is an updated one.

Can you give me specific e2fsck commands to run which will not ruin my
disks and data? I have seen people online recommending re-writing the
super blocks but I am now sure I want to write anything until I know
it will not damage something and erase my data.
as for the last command you asked .. can you give me more info on it?
mint mnt # dumpe4fs -h /dev/md0
No command 'dumpe4fs' found, did you mean:
Command 'dumpe2fs' from package 'e2fsprogs' (main)
dumpe4fs: command not found
mint mnt # apt-get install dume4fs
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package dume4fs
if you meant dumpe2fs ... here is the output.
mint mnt # dumpe2fs -h /dev/md0
dumpe2fs 1.42.5 (29-Jul-2012)
dumpe2fs: Bad magic number in super-block while trying to open /dev/md0
