You don't need to rename the raidtab, mdadm doesn't use it.  You should
be able to do a 

mdadm -A --run /dev/md1 /dev/hde1 /dev/hdf1

&gt; 
&gt; cat your /etc/raidtab.  Also, I'd change both hde1 and hdf1 to type &quot;fd&quot;
&gt; which is raid autodetect.  Do you have &quot;mdadm&quot; installed?  It's the
&gt; sucessor to raidtools and is MUCH better.
&gt; 
&gt; 
&gt; Thus spake John Cole (JohnC at LGEFCU.org):
&gt; 
&gt; &gt; Howdy!
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; :)  I meant /dev/hde1 and /dev/hdf1
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; Dev		Boot	Start	End		Blocks	ID	System
&gt; &gt; /dev/hde1	*	1	116358	58644400+	83	Linux
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; /dev/hdf1	*	1	116358	58644400+	83	Linux
&gt; &gt; 
&gt; &gt; In actuality, /dev/hde is a new 60GB drive.  /dev/hdf1 is a 50 or 55 GB
&gt; &gt; drive (don't remember how it got that odd size but it's a few years old.)
&gt; &gt;
