-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I haven't used software raid for a while, and when I did, it was under the 2.4.x series of kernels. However, having said that, note that back when I used software raid, any partitions which were a part of a raid device had to be set to signature "FD", autodetect. My second observation is that you seem to have 2 raid devices, one for boot, and one for root. Under 2.4 kernels, this wouldn't work, since the boot partition has to be on an actual partition, not on a raid device. I've also had a look through the partition types that cfdisk supports, and I don't see "55AA" as being one of them, so I don't know what kind of a partition that is, though a google search would probably answer that question. Again, keep in mind that things have probably changed in newer versions of the raid tools, and in the 2.6.x kernels, so what I've just mentioned here may, or may not still be accurate, so you get to keep the pieces if you follow what I've just said, and it screws things up even more. Good luck and hth.
