Use mdraid instead of dmraid, it is a lot better in my experience lacking the annoying device is already active shenanigans. Enable it in the kernel by going to multiple device drivers, enabling raid support and whatever your raid array is (0,1, etc) and make sure autodetect array on boot is selected. Then when you reboot you should see a device called md126pX in /dev, this is your raid array. The three numbers may differ. Just look for a device with md at the beginning. Whatever partiton you want to mount will be that X, if it is Windows 7 there is a system reserved partition so the partition you want will be partition 2. So, your mount command...
Code: | mount -t ntfs /dev/md126p2 /mnt/windows |

Oh, didn't read the ending. But in order to add Windows to grub, add this entry:
Code: | title Windows
map hd0 hd1
map hd1 hd0
rootnoverify (hd1,0)
chainloader +1 |

Furthermore, if you want the raid partition mounted on startup (sorry for the bajillion posts)... add this to your /etc/fstab
Code: | /dev/md126p2 /mnt/windows ntfs defaults 0 0 |
