--- Begin Message ---Neil, could it be that $MDADM --assemble --scan --run --auto=yes cannot assemble arrays whose ARRAY definitions have metadata= or name= in the mdadm.conf file? I am not in a position to test this at the moment, unfortunately...

You can find the corrected initrd at http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/anton/tmp/linux-2.6.25.6.perfctr/initrd.img-2.6.25.6-perfctr If you replace the (manually fixed) mdadm.conf in it with the automatically generated http://www.complang.tuwien.ac.at/anton/tmp/linux-2.6.25.6.perfctr/mdadm.conf-broken it exhibits the problem. > Alternatively, zcat it into cpio > -i and inspect the md* files under conf/* and etc/* and let me know > what you find. IIRC (I had a good grasp at the time, but that was two weeks ago:-/) the problem is not that the script is wrong but that the $MDADM --assemble --scan --run --auto=yes step does accept ARRAY lines with "metadata=1" and/or name='c8':1 - anton ----- End forwarded message ----- -- .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' : proud Debian developer, author, administrator, and user `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck - http://debiansystem.info `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems "it is impossible to foresee the consequences of being clever." -- cristopher strachey
