Software Raid not autodetected with bsd disklabel

[MC <mike@avendesora.net>]

Hello -
I set up a software raid-5 array on my as1200 running 2.4.21 custom
kernel.  I want to at least have / on the array - ideally I would like to
boot to the array - but if i partition the drives using bsd disklabels,
the array is not autodetected.  Using dos partitions, autodetect wrks
fine.  fdisk did not list a type fd for partitions.  It didn't list it,
but it didn't complain either when thats what I put for the type.
Perhaps this is the problem.
Anyone have any ideas?  And has anybody ever been able to boot to a raid
array?
Thank's,
Mike Campbell
