Surge,
It looks like you are working off old documentation. Have a look at Jakob's
HOWTO, either in the raidtools package, at /usr/doc/raidtools, or at
http://ostenfeld.dk/~jakob/Software-RAID.HOWTO/.
I think Glenn has spotted your main problem. You say you haven't made the md
device yet, but yo
You know the boot process... first your boot manager boots up (lilo) which
calls your kernel, once your kernel has done its thing it looks for a file
called init init starts all your shell and all your initialisation files.
If your getting the message that it cant find init, it measn that the ini

Um raid0 should strip everything evenly across both hda1 and hdc1.
You should have roughly the same amount of data on each partition.
