Thanks. I tried this on a scratch Debian VM I had lying around, and found I could exactly reproduce your symptoms. I found that, unlike on the first Debian system I looked at, there is a line in /lib/udev/rules.d/64-md-raid-assembly.rules # Disable incremental assembly to fix Debian bug #784070 GOTO="md_inc_end" Remove that and the problem goes away. Arrgg... I wish people maintainers would *ask* upstream when they don't understand, rather than just breaking things. NeilBrown
