my info:
mandrake 9.1
mdadm 1.2.0

 do you have  ARRAY or DEVICE entries in your /etc/mdadm.conf ?
 if so try commenting them out and run the mdadm command again.


 Did the GENTOO mdadm come with a  monitoring script for in /etc/init.d 
?  Mandrake's rpm did not. 
RedHats's mdadm rpm contains  /etc/init.d/mdmonitor  script which does a 
great job running mdadm --monitor.
I used RH's mdmonitor on the Mandrake computer. works great, with just 2 
lines in /etc/mdadm.conf.

 RedHat seems to have software raid implemented better than Mandrake.
