The first time I run :
# dmraid -ay  :
RAID set "isw_hgbhgbbcd_Volume0" already active
RAID set "isw_hgbhgbbcd_Volume1" already active
The second time , I get
 # dmraid -ay  :
RAID set "isw_hgbhgbbcd_Volume0" already active
RAID set "isw_hgbhgbbcd_Volume1" already active
RAID set "isw_hgbhgbbcd_Volume01" already active

This doesn't look like a partition table
Probably you selected the wrong device.

Partition 4 does not end on cylinder boundary.

Partition table entries are not in disk order

note I don't intend to use software raid in fc5 anyway for the moment
