Finally rebooted after the last stable x86 baselayout update, and had
some problems when my system started up again.

The first was that while I did have the evms package installed, the
kernel I'm using is the ac-sources, which doesn't have the evms patch.
/etc/init.d/checkfs and /etc/init.d/evms check for the existance of
/sbin/evms_activate and run evms_activate if it does, but don't (can't?)
check to see if it's actually supported in the kernel, giving ugly
errors.

The second was I moved a RAID array off my box some time ago, but
apparently still had it listed in /etc/mdadm.conf.  The new 
/etc/init.d/checkfs saw it there, tried to start it, found that it
didn't exist and bailed me to a console.  It took a bit of digging to
figure out what the heck was going on.  Maybe adding a suggestion of
where to look, or consider this a less fatal error (maybe only if it's
not / perhaps?) might be better.

alan, heading to bugzilla now
