this is the correct raidtab entry for your config:
raiddev /dev/md0
raid-level linear
nr-raid-disks 2
persistent-superblock 0
chunk-size 8
device /dev/sdb1
raid-disk 0
device /dev/sdc1
raid-disk 1
to get your array running simply do:
raid0run /dev/md0
and thats all. Note that to get 'raid0run' you'll have to get and install
the latest raidtools. (RedHat 6.0 includes the latest code but raid0run
was added shortly after RH 6.0 was released, raid0run will show up in an
errata)
let me know if it still doesnt work,
