I got a ghost in my system!

Ok, I'm still having weird issues and as nobody replied, I'm still
unsure how to proceed...
Here, I tried reformating (dd'ed some zeros on the whole drives),
repartitionning them.

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sdb1               1           1         961   83  Linux
/dev/sdb2               2        1015     1005888   fd  Linux raid autodetect

I have 3 identical drives, fresh made, i issue the command:
mdadm --create --verbose /dev/md1 --level=raid5 --raid-devices=3
/dev/sdb2 /dev/sdc2 /dev/sdd2

My system is a new install (nothing left in /etc, etc...), so I really
don't get what's going on, check the output of several programs:
