I cannot explain the mounting problem.  Maybe if you give more
specifics....

Well what I did was:

mdadm -Cv -l2 -n2 /dev/hde1 /dev/hdg1 /dev/md0
mke2fs -j /dev/md0
mount /dev/md0 /home

then I unmounted it and when I tried to mount it again right after
unmounting it I got the Wrong FS type error and I get a bunch of error
message on the console.

If that is really what you did, no wonder it didn't work.  The md
device must be listed first, not last.

However if it is a typo, and you really listed /dev/md0 first, it is
strange.  Maybe if you could include the 'bunch of error messages' - 
   dmesg > /tmp/afile
should get them for you.
