Permissions on HD (RAID Set) (use BatChmod?)

I was messing around with my RAID array (dumb) and was paying the the permissions and ownership with right clicking "Get Info". I changed it to 'no access" figuring I could change it back. I began getting (maybe) 'error 213' when I changed it, tried to change it back. I may have changed ownership too.

In Disk Utility it appears as an 'ear-marked page' as an icon when mounted, instead of 'a disk' now, and after restart does not appear on the desktop. The Verify and Repair Disk permissions are not selectable.

I tried unmounting and mounting, restarting. I downloaded BatChmod, but can not navigate to the disk.

What do you all think I should do, besides carelessly fiddling with such settings?
 
Boot from a different system (if that is an option for you), and try repairing permisions from there.
Or sudo diskutil from terminal to fix it (man diskutil first...) - running it as root should give a full access to it again.
 
It has been quite some time since I've messed around in a shell, and never really in OSX. I have my FCP and Lightroom archive on this array, and am quitting smoking, so I'm not so confident I wont mess-up the syntax, even with the man.

How would I change the read write execute from this volume manually in root?

:~ root# diskutil repairPermissions /dev/disk2 disk2
