Package: mondo Version: 2.20-1.1 Severity: normal I have a system with two raid devices, swap on /dev/md2 and the main filesystem on /dev/md3. I backed up a directory with the following command:
mondoarchive -O -i -s 700m -k FAILSAFE -F -I /home/root -d /backup/isos Then I wrote the CD image from /backup/isos to a CD, and booted from it to see if the bits compared. I said "compare" at the boot prompt. During the boot it started /dev/md0 and /dev/md1 instead of /dev/md2 and /dev/md3. The compare failed with the message "Could not mount devices [sic.] /dev/md3 - shall I abort". I did abort, and I refused to run the cryptic and evil-sounding post-nuke script since I was just doing a comparison. This left me at a shell prompt, running from the rescue CD. The workaround was to give these commands: mdadm --stop /dev/md0 mdadm --stop /dev/md1 mdadm --assemble /dev/md3 /dev/hda3 /dev/hdc3 mondoarchive I think mondoarchive should save /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf during the backup and consult it during the restore so it can give the RAID devices the same names they had during backup. -- Package-specific info: -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages mondo depends on: ii afio 2.5-4 archive file manipulation program ii buffer 1.19-8 Buffering/reblocking program for t ii cdrecord 9:1.1.2-1 Dummy transition package for wodim ii libc6 2.3.6.ds1-13 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libfribidi0 0.10.7-4 Free Implementation of the Unicode ii libnewt0.52 0.52.2-10 Not Erik's Windowing Toolkit - tex ii lzop 1.01-4 fast compression program ii mindi 2.20-2 creates boot/root disks based on y Versions of packages mondo recommends: pn dvd+rw-tools <none> (no description available) Versions of packages mindi depends on: ii binutils 2.17-3 The GNU assembler, linker and bina ii bzip2 1.0.3-6 high-quality block-sorting file co ii dosfstools 2.11-2.1+b1 Utilities to create and check MS-D ii file 4.17-5etch1 Determines file type using "magic" ii gawk 1:3.1.5.dfsg-4 GNU awk, a pattern scanning and pr ii mindi-busybox 1.2.1-2 Collection of shell utilities in a ii mkisofs 9:1.1.2-1 Dummy transition package for genis ii module-init-tools 3.3-pre4-2 tools for managing Linux kernel mo ii ms-sys 2.1.0-1 Write a Microsoft compatible boot ii nano 2.0.2-1 free Pico clone with some new feat ii parted 1.7.1-5.1 The GNU Parted disk partition resi ii syslinux 1:3.31-4 Bootloader for Linux/i386 using MS -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
