Package: yaird
Version: 0.0.12-20

yaird fails to create an initrd image for a raid5 system:
$ sudo mkinitrd.yaird -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.22-rc5 2.6.22-rc5
yaird error: Could not read output for /sbin/modprobe -v -n --show-depends --set-version 2.6.22-rc5 raid5 (fatal)

Seems to me it tries to add the kernel module "raid5" to the image, however, no such module exists in the kernel. Perhaps it's refering to raid456. Anyway, it's built with CONFIG_MD_RAID456=y, so it should try to load it as a module in the first place.

Is this perhaps due to the soon 2 year old bug #337724? If so, perhaps yaird should bail out with an error message like; "doesn't support raid devices" if possible. And I raise a vote to prioritize raid support in yaird. After all, from what I can see, there has been a patch available since that bug was filed.

Please tell me if I can be of further help in this issue.

Best regards,
Gustaf
