I would have just used fdisk instead of partd. If you are adding this to a raid, you don't need a filesystem, just a partition of the right size. The contents are going to be wiped by the raid sync anyway.
Thanks for comment. Fdisk was recommended me by another experienced user too, so there is probably a good reason. Though I don't know, what's wrong with using parted.
BTW, this problem partition was not the raid1 partition, but a copy of the boot partition on the startup disk. In case the boot disk ever fails, I hope I can make the 2nd disk bootable by just installing grub.
