I'm not sure if this is a feature or a bug, but I've never been able to
read the partition table on a software RAID device (md#). The partitions
are still there and work just fine, I just can't read the partition
table. You may want to try accessing the partition as usual and see if
you have any luck. It may still be there just not readable by disk
partitioning tools.
