RAID0

I'm trying to set up a RAID0 device. I have an external unit of 4 scsi
drives. They are hooked up properly, reconised by the kernel. I can
partition them, and use them individually.

I use the following commands to try to get the raid going

mdadd /dev/md0 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1 /dev/sde1
mdrun -p0 /dev/md0

I tried partitioning that device. No dice, so I tried to mkfs -t ext2
/dev/md0. This creates a filesystem on it, but when it's done creating it is
not accessable. I tried creating an msdos fs on it, and it worked just fine.

What step am I missing here? Also when I try any other personality on mdadd
(I compiled in all the personalities in 2.1.90) is return Invalid Option.
