Since the stock md/raid0 is now horribly broken in 2.1.12[89],
I decided today to try the latest raid1 stuff:

        raid0145-19981110-2.1.127       -- kernel patch
        raidtools-19981105-0.90.tar.gz  -- raid utilities

After patching the kernel and rebooting, I created /etc/raidtab:

        raiddev                 /dev/md0
        raid-level              1
        nr-raid-disks           2
        nr-spare-disks          0
        chunk-size              32

        device                  /dev/hde1
        raid-disk               0

        device                  /dev/hdg1
        raid-disk               1

and then did:

        mkraid /dev/md0
        #.. waited for /proc/mdstat to show sync'ing 100% completed, then..
        mke2fs /dev/md0
        mount /dev/md0 /u
        cp -auvfx / /u          ## copy everthing to md0
        umount /dev/md0
        e2fsck -f /dev/md0

and lo.. the e2fsck finds *tons* of filesystem errors.

Running e2fsck -f /dev/md0 *again* finds more errors!

Not looking too good at the moment.
