There were issues in the 2.2 raid code on Sparc hardware which may have been resolved by redhat, and may have been resolved differently in 2.4. Look for a line like: md.c: sizeof(mdp_super_t) = 4096 is the number 4096 in both cases? If not, then that is probably the problem. It is quite possible that raid in 2.4 on sparc is not upwards compatible with raid in redhat6.2 on sparc.
