Did the RAID array every finish syncing? It may take a long time
(1048576 megs / 10 mb/sec / 3600 seconds/hr = 29 hours!) ... 

I have one (SCSI) system with a slower CPU, syncing the array I was sure
something was wrong. Once the array was up, though, everything has
worked great. I just have to be sure it shuts down clean or the rebuild
is painful!

Maybe I'm way off, but I'd just give it a day to see if it eventually
syncs. If you can login, do a cat of /proc/mdstat every 15 minutes, if
it's making progress I'd leave it.

Matt
