i believe it should look something like this
raiddev /dev/md0
raid-level linear
nr-raid-disks 2
persistent-superblock 0
device /dev/hdc
raid-disk 0
device /dev/hdd
raid-disk 1
persitent-superblock 0 means you have an array created with
old mdtools which does not have a superblock, changing this
would require destroying the array
spare disk are not an option for linear and raid0
chunk size also does not apply to linear.
