--- Begin Message ---Package: mdadm Version: 2.5.2-7 Followup-For: Bug #383727 Hi, I've seen quite a few bugs related to this matter on the BTS, and have seen that a new version of mdadm is already in unstable, but, as none of the bug reported apply exactly to my case, I decided to open mine. HISTORY ------- As some others, my "Debian testing" doesn't boot since I upgraded a few weeks ago. after rebooting on my "Debian stable" (on the same computer), I saw that the upgrade changed the names of my raid arrays. Hopefully, not enough to make this distribution unbootable. So, after a little work, I updated my grub config and rebooted my "Debian testing"... But the boot process got stuck "waiting for root filesystem". Back to my "Debian stable", chroot to my "Debian testing", I could upgrade it again and see that "mdadm" was complaining a little. Now, I think I solved it, but it still gets stuck "waiting for root filesystem". CURRENT SITUATION ----------------- If I wait long enough for the boot process to give up and to give me a busybox shell, I see that the /dev/md3 device exists and that all required modules (md and raid1) are loaded, but, still, when I try "mount /dev/md3 /", I got a very strange error "Invalid argument". Second problem, if I run "mdadm --examine --scan", the output gives me 2 entries for /dev/md4 (I updated manually the mdadm.conf file hereunder to leave only 1 entry). Now, maybe a third problem I'm discovering while writing this report, "mount" says that "/dev/md2" is mounted at root... Well, that's it. I cannot say much more. It seems that my raid setup is completly screwed up but it is very difficult for me to debug such a problem within a chrooted environment. Is all this due to an mdadm bug?

Gunderson to ensure mdadm does not interpret a superblock as belonging to a device when it's actually part of a partition on that device (closes: #385951). * Do not override the superblock default version in mdadm.conf to prevent creation of superblocks that the kernel can't handle (closes: #384614). * Added a note to alert people that the warning about arrays not listed in the configuration file is only relevant if the arrays are needed to be brought up by mdadm from initramfs during boot (closes: #385017). * Added bootloader/cmdline info to bugscript so that future bug reports via bug/reportbug include information on how the system is booted with respect to RAID (the root partition). * If mdadm is being configured in a chroot, it now defaults to starting all arrays from the initial ramdisk, rather than trying to figure out the root MD array (we're using /proc information, so it would be the one of the host, not the one of the chroot) (closes: #386468). * Added LSB headers to init scripts. * Reworked the documentation with respect to the use of "MD" and "RAID", and added a FAQ entry on the meaning of "MD". Thanks to Frans Pop for his help! * Updated debconf translations: - Czech by Miroslav Kure (closes: #384754). - French by Florentin Duneau (closes: #385690). - Russian by Yuri Kozlov (closes: #387017).
