The current md driver is broken-by-design in the autodetection issue.
You have to compile the driver into the kernel and mark the partition as
type 0xFD to make it autodetecteable. When using modules, you will be
forced to reconstruct the array from a userspace utility. I suggest, you
install mdadm, add mdadm to /etc/mkinitrd/exe, then edit
/usr/share/initrd-tools/linuxrc
and add something like
/sbin/mdadm -R -A /dev/md0 /dev/hdx /dev/hdy
in the first lines. There should be an easier way of modifying the
start-script of initrd, I am just writting a wishlist bugreport about
that.
Gruss/Regards,
Eduard.
