Okay, did a lot of digging around and I found a few things. Checked
/etc/mdadm.conf and found that it had the old data for a previous RAID and
not the current info. Corrected the devices and changed the UUID from the
output shown from running 'mdadm --detail /dev/md0'.

dmesg shows the following;

SCSI device sdb: 145226112 512-byte hdwr sectors (74356 MB)
SCSI device sdb: drive cache: write back

However, upon bootup the following info scrolls by;

md: md0 stopped
Initializing Multiple Devices
mdadm: no device found for /dev/md0
md: Auto detecting RAID arrays
md: autorun
md: ..autorun done.
mount: /dev/md0: can't read superblock

Although, after logging in and running 'mdadm --assemble --scan' the RAID
starts and it can be mounted.

Fdisk shows all three drives with an ID of 'fd', for a Linux RAID
Autodetect.

Any ideas on how I can have device md0 start at boot time?

Many thanks,

James
