Yep, I admit it's out of date. When raid is released and stable in
the 2.2x kernels I will update it. Until then I suggest you use
initrd but use a small partition (duplicated) on your drives to hold
an initrd boot/rescue system rather than ram-disk to get a
kernel loaded and a rescue file system should raid fail. The kernel
can then automount the raid device.
