I followed your advice and was able to make a file system on /dev/mdo. I
enter this entry in fstab 
/dev/md0   /home/apps   ext3   defaults  1 2

I tried ext2 and ext3 and got the same error after re-booting.this
happens when Checking file system runs
" The superblock could not be read or does not describe a valid ext2
file system/. 

the odd thing is that as soon as I create the file system on /dev/md0, I
can mount it using mount -t ext3 /dev/md0 /home/apps. I can go in and
see the lost and found folder. it only fails after a re-boot. Also if I
remove the mdo entry in fstab, reboot and try mounting it manually, it
now fails (invalid file system)

thanks
