These are the same partitions you were using to experiment with RAID-1 before, right?
You need to do a mkraid to set them up to be RAID-0, or the superblocks will continue
to show that these partitions are RAID-1. If you don't want to run mkraid every time
you start the md device, I believe you will also need to include a
persistent-superblock line in your raidtab.
