 From the output below, assuming the system is running OK, the RAID  
doesn't need rebuilding. The BIOS is just confused about the state of  
the array, it will probably still boot from it OK.

[I've got a system with Intel ESB2 in the same state, anyone who  
knows how to make the BIOS see sense (short of a full rebuild) please  
tell.]
