Its been a while so I am a bit rusty. I have a g2 box, was using mdraid. I Can boot with kernel off boot partition normally and see the array. I know its a good md device. But I had an issue i need to use the minimal cd to boot with. I am having trouble finding the comand to re-mount my md0 array so I can chroot that partition. I have done..

modprobe md-mod
modprobe raid0
modprobe raid1

but boot minimal wont see md0

njcwotx,

Look in /dev it may not be md0 any more.

If there are no /dev/md* you need to use mdadm to assemble your raid set

Code:
mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 <list of component devices>

so, mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1 ...
