I was very, very careful to ensure that the drives were plugged in in the corresponding order that they'd been plugged in in the first machine. Now, fdisk shows no partitions in two of my three mirrors. This fills me with a distinct lack of warmth and fuzziness. /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf addresses the two (MIA) mirrors with /dev/sd[abef]1 designators, which can, of course, get jumbled in a transition. Any tips on how to go forward would be gratefully appreciated -- I *really* don't want to have to go to backups.
