Is taking me longer than I had hoped because Linux duplicated an entry in the /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf file (a bug that it does once in a while), and when it does this it won’t boot up all the way.  It gets to where it’s time to assemble the RAID device but since the raw devices are assigned multiple RAID devices (even though they are the same just duplicate entries) it just stops.  So normally I would boot with a rescue disk and fix it but the rescue disk does not have mdadm on it so first I have to install that, however the rescue disk I had was too old, so the repos no longer existed, so had to come back and burn one with the current repositories.  AARRRGGGHHH!
