I have failed in my attempts to get keg's RAID array back. I will be<br>
rebuilding keg with Ubuntu 14.04LTS, and then manually configuring<br>
everything (which shouldn't be too hard) and copying things back from<br>
backups. I hope *fingers crossed* to have everything back up by the end<br>
of tomorrow. If I don't, I will work on it over the weekend.<br>
Until then, tractor, helga, and the render farm in general will<br>
continue to be down. My sincerest apologies for this inconvenience!!<br>
