Software RAID on Linux (md devices) have nothing to do with reiserfs.
One is a filesystem, the other is a block device.
You should start with reading Documentation/md.txt in your linux source
tree. Then you should read the documentation that comes with the
raidtools that ships with the linux distribution you use.
Once you have created an md device reiserfs treats it just like any
other block device.[1]

Learn the difference between a block device and a filesystem.
It will help you to no end.

not work right.
