How do I repair my software RAID5 disks?

Solution 1:

It looks a bit like you managed to knock off all four drives from the array? I think you get some kind of achievement badge. :-)

You should be able to just re-add them to the array:

sudo mdadm /dev/md1 --re-add /dev/sd[bcde]

Then watch cat /proc/mdstat to see it rebuild them.

See man mdadm for more.
