The format failed and things seemed to be with the file system on md1. Yes, it's an order of magnitude difference, but at a glance 1.82TB and 1.87GB look similar enough to click OK before realizing you're error. The similarity in size of the two devices through me off. Somewhere along the way I managed to scroll to md1 and didn't notice that I was formatting the 2TB hard drive instead of the 2GB flash drive. I wanted to wipe the flash drive before creating the LiveUSB. I used gparted because the flash drive had been partitioned and formatted (two ext2 partitions and one swap) for an Optware install for my dd-wrt flashed router. In the process of trying to make an LMDE 201204 LiveUSB I formatted my 2TB RAID1 array, instead of the 2GB flash drive I intended due to a scroll wheel snafu in gparted. I managed to do something I really hope I can undo.
