I'm ignorant about RAID, but your symptoms sound as if your boot
loader is installed on the MBR of /dev/hda, and is not also installed on
the MBR of /dev/hdc. I suppose that in /etc/lilo.conf there's a line
"boot=/dev/hda". If you did "lilo -b /dev/hdc", or instead changed
lilo.conf to (temporarily) have "boot=/dev/hdc" and then did "lilo", that
might solve your problem.
