Hey Edgars and Gabi,

nice that both of you could solve this problem.
Could you tell what kind of raid it was? Was it a "fake raid" or a real
raid controller, and how did the raid setup look when it failed and how
did it look afterwards?
I'd like to capture these informations to nail down this problem a bit
more.

Thanks
fabian
