Dmesg should show something like this if you had a raid1:

Well, it did not, sorry to say...
If you built it with disk druid it's pretty easy to get raid0
accidentally since that's the drop-down default and you have
to change it for raid1.
I did not originally build it, so I don't know. I did specify Raid1
though. I guess that did not happen.
And if you omit the -t ext2?
It told me to specify the file system type...
Anyway, thanks for the help. I downloaded a utility that was able to
read the disk and with that I am able to recover a good part of what was
lost. :)
I owe you a pint for your troubles.
Cheers!

Please forward the utility to the list as it may be useful.
I have been away for a week and just catching up on the list mail.
You may have missed the previous request for the utility that you used.
Thank you
