not good ..
- is the partition type set to "FD" and the boot flag ( a ) turned on
- i assume you have the raid modules in your initrd for the
kernel you're booting

sometimes, some distro, bootloaders cannot boot from raid5
- you are guaranteed to be able to boot anything from raid1
- for raid stuff, always use grub from cvs checkout and/or
lilo from the primary lilo ftp site
( /boot on raid1 which is one of the few times oyu need
a different explicit /boot partitions in todays PCs )
