These two sentences above togeher sound somewhat strange to me. Maybe somebody with a better than mine grasp of all technical details here can comment? Is this inability to find RAID disks possibly your problem if an array should show up? It sounds like something else than what I suggested as a possibility. In any case - those signatures are on "closer to the metal" devices, like /dev/hda and similar and not on /dev/md...', and with 'dmraid -r' you should see something of that sort: /dev/sdb: pdc, "pdc_cjfeejidea", stripe, ok ..... if they are really present.Would mdadm --zero-superblock /dev/md1 work?If you are asking if this will have effects you desire then I have no idea. :-) Michal
Must be something else then because:
[root P4C800Deluxe ~]# dmraid -r
No RAID disks
[root P4C800Deluxe ~]# mdadm --detail /dev/md* | egrep '/dev|Level|State'
/dev/md0:
Raid Level : raid5
State : clean
Number Major Minor RaidDevice State
0 8 33 0 active sync /dev/sdc1
1 8 49 1 active sync /dev/sdd1
2 8 1 2 active sync /dev/sda1
/dev/md1:
Raid Level : raid5
State : clean
Number Major Minor RaidDevice State
0 8 34 0 active sync /dev/sdc2
1 8 50 1 active sync /dev/sdd2
2 8 17 2 active sync /dev/sdb1
/dev/md2:
Raid Level : raid1

0 8 35 0 active sync /dev/sdc3
1 8 51 1 active sync /dev/sdd3

Thanks for your interest...you have given something else to investigate.
And, perhaps, as you say, someone else will take an interest and
provide some clues or some debugging avenues.
