Cool. Now I just gotta figure out why I can't create the raid. Sadly when this
system crashed I lost the old /etc/raidtab config so I really have no idea how
the raid was set up, but here is what I've done so far.
alfalfa:~# mdadm --examine /dev/hdg
/dev/hdg:

I then try to assemble the raid with
mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 /dev/hdg1 /dev/hde1
This appears to work fine but then the computer locks up. With this info in syslog.

Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks much
