If that does not work, clean the drive out manually after removing it

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdi bs=1M
This is taking forever
I stopped it after about half an hour, hoping that it had made garbage
of whatever was the problem.
I then added it into the array and it worked as before.
However, it still wasn't added when I rebooted.
...but, there is something different. Now, when I --examine /dev/sdi, it
gives output for the whole array including 2 spares, which is the end
result I expect :
Active Devices : 6
Working Devices : 8
Failed Devices : 0
Spare Devices : 2
However, --detail /dev/md2 still denies /dev/sdi exists :
Active Devices : 6
Working Devices : 7
Failed Devices : 0
Spare Devices : 1
What's up?
Max.
