RAID setup automation problem

Hi guys,

I'm trying to write a small script that sets up RAID using MDADM without asking user for any input.
Here's what I'm doing:

Code:

start=`mdadm --create $2 --level=$3 --raid-devices=$4 $5 $6 <<  MAYDAY
y
MAYDAY`

When I it, I get this

Code:

./redundancy -setup /dev/md0 1 2 /dev/files/test0 /dev/files/test1

MDADM Module successfully loaded. Starting the RAID Array.
mdadm: /dev/files/test0 appears to be part of a raid array:
    level=raid1 devices=2 ctime=Thu Aug 28 18:56:33 2008
mdadm: /dev/files/test1 appears to be part of a raid array:
    level=raid1 devices=2 ctime=Thu Aug 28 18:56:33 2008
Continue creating array? Continue creating array? (y/n) Continue creating array? (y/n) mdadm: create aborted.

Can someone help me fix this please?
Thank you
