pinniped:

I've noticed the last week or two that you've done a tremendous job at
providing answers to a lot of questions. Great work!

However, might I suggest that you provide some context to your answers?
Each post of yours I've seen over this time period has just come out of
the blue, and the only way I would know to what issue(s) you are
responding would be for me to go dig in the mailing list archives. You
would do me, and I suspect others, a favor by including enough of a
snippet of the original post to provide some background to your answers.

Thanks!

It seems they are:

# mdadm --detail /dev/md0
/dev/md0:
[...]
Persistence : Superblock is persistent
[...]
# mdadm --detail /dev/md1
/dev/md1:
[...]
Persistence : Superblock is persistent

 Also check backwards 
 through scripts to see where md2 might fail.

md2 is no failing, md0 and md1 are failing, which are / and swap. I haven't 
written any scripts myself, any ideas about what I should check?

Make sure the RAID device is set to be 'persistent'.  Also check backwards 
through scripts to see where md2 might fail.
