But seriously, a dmesg in Ubuntu showed it's kernel detecting hde1 and
hdf1 as part of md0, and obviously then I could just mount /dev/md0
somewhere, whereas if I do a dmesg post boot in Fedora, I see a message
along the lines of "failed to find array members" (not the exact message).

Out of curiosity though... the current advice about populating
/etc/mdadm.conf is theoretical or so totally obvious I should be hanging
my head in _shame_ for asking on ILUG?

Perhaps I'll just do the dirty and backup my raid array elsewhere.
