Did you create /etc/mdadm.conf ?
echo "DEVICE /dev/sd*" > /etc/mdadm.conf
mdadm --brief --examine /dev/sd* >> /etc/mdadm.conf
Check the raid with
cat /proc/mdstat
It tells you which devices are part of the array.
Finally put the raid flag on the partitions. I'm not sure whether it's
really needed, I just do it:
parted /dev/sda
set 1 raid
set 2 raid
print
1 0.031 101.975 primary ext3 boot, raid
2 101.975 194474.355 primary raid
quit
