Where is the write-intent bitmap stored? /lib/init/rw is available r/w even before checkroot. I'd rather not move mdadm-raid around because it took months to settle on the current position. So instead, we should make sure that mdadm knows where to try to drop its files. -- .''`. martin f. krafft <[email protected]> Related projects: : :' : proud Debian developer http://debiansystem.info `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck http://vcs-pkg.org `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems
