You seem to have the stock 2.2.16 kernel without the newer raid-pathes.
You can find a 2.2.16 path at:
http://people.redhat.com/mingo/raid-patches/
apply that to your kernel source (add --dry-run to test if the patch will
succeed before actually changing your kernel source).

In my kernel-configuration is an option for autodetect and booting from
raid. There is also a Raid-Howto which describes how to realize a raid1 at
for booting from.
I don't boot from it, but by raid is detected and started at boottime right
after the scsi-device scan and partition check.
I hope this helps,
