Thanks,
I have set the filesystem type of the partitions on sda and sdb
(excluding /) to 'fd'. I then did a umount /dev/sda5 then mkraid for my
/dev/md0. When I boot the machine now I get this as the output of dmesg:

This looks good except for the md0 stopped message. Once the boot is
complete a cat /proc/mdstat shows nothing about md0? What is the kmod
error?
Thanks for the help,
