        i am newbie raid'er. i've a problem such that.

me:~# mkraid /dev/md0
handling MD device /dev/md0
analyzing super-block
disk 0: /dev/hdc2, 1048950kB, raid superblock at 1048832kB
disk 1: /dev/hdb2, 1052257kB, raid superblock at 1052160kB
disk 2: /dev/hda2, 1052257kB, raid superblock at 1052160kB
mkraid: aborted

and strace output is such that.

....
read(6, "/dev/hda1 / ext2 rw 0 0\nnone /p"..., 4096) = 47
read(6, "", 4096)                       = 0
close(6)                                = 0
munmap(0x400ca000, 4096)                = 0
_llseek(0x5, 0, 0x400, 0xbfffe740, 0)   = 0
read(5, "8\232\tf\r\21\212I\n\360T\202v\347"..., 1024) = 1024
_llseek(0x5, 0, 0x40380000, 0xbfffe740, 0) = 0
read(5, "ht.  All rights reserved.  By ac"..., 4096) = 4096
close(5)                                = 0
open("/dev/md0", O_RDONLY)              = 5
ioctl(5, 0x40480923, 0x804f758)         = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
write(2, "mkraid: aborted\n", 16)       = 16
close(4)                                = 0
munmap(0x40008000, 4096)                = 0
_exit(1)                                = ?

        my raidtab file is as follows

raiddev                 /dev/md0
raid-level              5
nr-raid-disks           3
chunk-size              128
persistent-superblock   1
parity-algorithm        right-asymmetric
device                  /dev/hdc2
raid-disk               0
device                  /dev/hdb2
raid-disk               1
device                  /dev/hda2
raid-disk               2

kernel is 2.2.3 and tools are raidtools-0.90.
        i have feel like that i am missing something obvious :-) 
Thanx in advance.
