How often do unload the md module while your system is running? Never? Then build md directly into your kernel, not as a module. Problem solved. In fact, if you're building a custom kernel for use on a single machine, remove module support entirely, and build all of your drivers directly into the kernel. I've done this for many many years. It makes many things much easier. -- Stan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
