raid problems

Hey,

  I'm having an issue setting up a RAID5 on a solaris 8 box...I'm sure
I'm just overlooking something obvious. I have a machine currently set
up with mirrored boot disks and I am using SDS to add an additional
raid device.
Set up using:

# metadb -a -f -c 2 -l 2068 c1t2d0s2 c1t3d0s2 c1t4d0s2 c1t5d0s2
# metainit d0 -r c1t2d0s2 c1t3d0s2 c1t4d0s2 c1t5d0s2

All goes well until I reboot and then I get this error:

md: could not load misc/md_raid

Any thoughts? The only thing I can think it might be is that I'm not
adding the raid db to the area on my mirrors that currently have my
mirror metadbs. While I don't recall this being an issue from other
times I've done this. I've also made sure to 'touch /reconfigure' since
I can't drop to the ok prompt to issue a 'boot -r' because my term
program is whack. I've also verified that my disk geometries are
identical. I've looked through the archives but didn't get anything
useful back.
