These drives were hda, hdi, and hdk (I only know this because .. > the drives' new names were hde, hdg, and hdo. So your drives are now hde, hdg, hdo, hdh, hdm, hdn, hdp. Something like mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 hd[egohmnp] should do the trick. -- BTW, speaking of mdadm, with no config file, the commands mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 mdadm --assemble --scan /dev/md0 mdadm --assemble --scan /dev/md0 /dev/hd[egohmnp] all segfault. They're probably not sensible commands to run, but it should give an error in that case. -jim
