Hi, I wonder why metainfo from /dev/sdf1 thinks that there're only 5 devices in raid6. Did you try to grow your array recently? Show the output of mdadm -D /dev/mdX when array is assembled on Ubuntu. Can you assemble the array with 4 disks: /dev/sd[a-d]? P.S. According to mdadm output metainfo on /dev/sdf1 claims that it's from another md-array (check Array UUID field). You may need to zero metadata on /dev/sdf1 and re-add in to existing raid6 array.
