Thanks for the pointer, Mike. I was using Google's mailing list
archive, but it seems woefully incomplete.
http://groups.google.ca/group/mlist.linux.raid

Another linux-raid archive had the message you mentioned:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-raid&m=112318177226599

The directions were...
sfdisk -d /dev/sda > /tmp/sda.part
sfdisk /dev/sdb < /tmp/sda.part
read the Software RAID-HowTo, and look for the Root-RAID section

Cheers,
Shaun
