Chris,
I suspect that what happened is that the array was in the process of
re-syncing when I powered off the box because it had frozen because of
an ATA timeout error.
When I re-booted, the RAID1 root partition was dirty and wouldn't
re-sync while the RAID 5 array was re-syncing.
Whatever, I got it back up and running by disconnecting the failed drive.
Cheers,
R.
