And during the load up i get something like udevd-work[114]:inotify_add_watch(6 /dev/sdb1, 10) failed : no such file or directory and that changed to another device as well.System loads up ok but i noticed also that the swap is not being used.

free gives me this :

total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 2059668 2006172 53496 0 77904 1451996
-/+ buffers/cache: 476272 1583396
Swap: 9762684 0 9762684


Why is that? Is something wrong w/ my RAID? I have RAID0.

Have you tried:
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9967736

Is your issue actually causing a problem or just reporting an error?
Is your swap not being used and it should or just not being used?
Try to load up something that should make use of swap?

I don't think this will help but I am researching issue around raid in prep for building my first raid system.

I just get the error msgs.The system loads and works fine.What about my swap?I tried to load it up and the used swap remains 0.What should i do?

If the system is working fine I would just file a bug report.

Add your information to the Ubuntu forums as well it may add more weight to it.

I don't know your set up but i have a Ubuntu box with 1.5 GB ram and it very rarely uses swap, maybe you just don't need it yet!
As a really brutish way of checking the swap load up some virtual machines on the system at one go and see if it starts using the swap?

Sorry I'm not of much help.
