I havent touched the md setup on this box since it was built ~6years
ago, but for the latest kernel/udev i've finally disabled the old IDE
stuff, so the disks will now appear as sda/sdc instead of hda/hdc at
next boot. Will the change be autodetected, or will I need to update a
configuration file? There's no references to the hd devices in /etc...

The system was updated to openrc a while back, and has been restarted
a number of times since then.

Its still running lilo, which references the meta devices; and the
raid-extra-boot is just a fallback if the metadevice is down IIRC (its
a mirror obviously)

boot = /dev/md0
raid-extra-boot=/dev/hda,/dev/hdc

image = /boot/kernel-2.6.38-r6ata
        label = 2.6.38-r6ata
        root = /dev/md2
        read-only
