Urm, actually I don't have a raidtab, because I used mdadm:
mdadm -C /dev/md7 -l 5 -n 3 /dev/hda9 /dev/hde1 /dev/hdg9
mkfs.ext3 /dev/md7
Possibly mdadm has other defaults than the raid-tools.
Generally I recommend to use mdadm, because it is more flexible and
actively maintained by Neil Brown, the Linux SoftwareRAID guy.
Cheers,
Juri
