Raid rebuilding

Hey folks -
Well, it finally happened. The machine housing my beautiful software
RAID 5 no longer recognizes the keyboard. I can't get the machine to
boot, since it halts on the keyboard error.
There are four drives in the machine. The first, on the first IDE
channel, is the boot drive, which holds the RH boot drive and the rest
of the system. The second IDE channel on the mobo holds the first raid
drive, an 80 GB drive. There is an IDE controller card with two
channels, each holding one 80 GB drive on the raid.
What is my best hope for recovery? My thought is that I can swap out the
motherboard, leave the drive ordering the same, and if Tux truly loves
me, I will get my raid back.
