I have an array of two disks /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1 as a raid5 array
/dev/md0 on top of which I run lvm and mount the whole lot as /home

This is strange... For an RAID-5 array you need 3 disks at least. Youcan not have RAID5 with just two disks.

Are you absolutely sure it was an RAID 5 array? If that's the case, thearray was already in degraded mode..... It is not possible to recoverdata from an RAID5 array if you have just one disk. Therefore u need atleast two disks...
