Before you upgrade the kernel, did you upgrade raidtools to the latest version? Plus did you do all the other updates? A side note about performance: If you switch hdd and hdc the array might be a bit faster (assuming you get it to work again ;) . > I am trying to upgrade to kernel-2.4.20-18.7, but am having some difficulty > with Software-RAID working once I have installed the RPM. > It > looked like everything was okay after that, but I wasn't getting any statistics > from the second drive in the array (hdd1). What happens if you run raidstart /dev/md1 by hand? Getting the same errors? > I noticed that I have kernel-headers-2.4.9-34 installed Don't bother about the kernel-headers.

Not sure, but I would think it's not a problem, since you are running on a live file system, so there are probably open files. Maybe if you'ld remount / ro the file system is reported as clean.
