old-style raid is no longer supported. You may wish to read the
s/w raid howto at http://ostenfeld.dk/~jakob/Software-RAID.HOWTO/
specifically, the "requirements section" (1.2)
quick summary: patch kernel, get new raidtools, create raidtab, mkraid

it still would appear that you have no valid sd[cde]2. perhaps fdisk -l
/dev/sd[cde] output so we can see the partitions on those drives?
also helpful would be your raidtab (mdtab in this case) contents and
/proc/mdstat output
My guess would be either /dev/sd[cde] aren't valid drives (for whatever
reason) or they only have a single partition. Shot in the dark, of
course, as there's not enough information to make a good assessment.
Good luck!
