Ahhh,
Don't give up just yet?
I issued these commands:
mdadm --create /dev/md127 --level=1 --raid-devices=2
--metadata=0.90 /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1
mdadm --create /dev/md125 --level=1 --raid-devices=2
--metadata=0.90 /dev/sda3 /dev/sdb3
mdadm: /dev/sda3 appears to be part of a raid array:
level=raid1 devices=2 ctime=Thu Apr 14 13:22:32 2011
mdadm: /dev/sdb3 appears to be part of a raid array:
level=raid1 devices=2 ctime=Thu Apr 14 13:22:32 2011
Continue creating array? y
mdadm --create /dev/md126 --level=1 --raid-devices=2
--metadata=0.90 /dev/sda2 /dev/sdb2
I'm not sure if I just wiped the drives clean (empty)?
If so, I'll have to start over.....?
mdadm --detail /dev/md1
mdadm: cannot open /dev/md1: No such file or directory
same now for md2 and md3...
Look (ma no hands!):
