John et al., 

Thanks for the help earlier.  I ran the followning commands, and all 
completed without error: 

# fdisk /dev/sda1
  IN fdisk, I made sure there were no pre-existing partions left (deleted 
them), than selected to create one primary partition, partition 1.  I wrote 
this to the drive. 

# mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sda1 

This completed without error.  The activity lights on the drive array 
indicated that writes were occuring on all disks. 

I then ran the following, and received these errors.  Any ideas? 

[root at Leah mnt]# mount -t ext3 /dev/sda1 /mnt/raid
EXT3-fs error (device sd(8,1)): ext3_check_descriptors: Block bitmap for 
group 34 not in group (block 0)!
EXT3-fs: group descriptors corrupted !
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1,
      or too many mounted file systems
[root at Leah mnt]# 

Thanks - Erich Hennig
