  I have a machine with a 7disk raid5 (software/md).  2 of the disks
failed durring a reboot, the machine came up marked the raid unusable
and dead.  Both drives just came unseated (love that Hardware QA on
assembly) and the array was never actually accessed.  Is there any way
to "force" it up or is it completely gone?
