no worries. I appreciate the help. What I think might have happened is that
somewhere between where I made the raid array years ago and now the mdadm
guys got all cute and made software raid arrays partitionable, so mount is
looking for a partition table that doesn't exist. It probably doesn't help
that when I originally assembled it it setup partitions 1 through 4 and I
had to stop the array and change the options to make it an old style
software raid with no partitions.
