In the past, I have read: --scan will cause mdadm to crash if there is no config file. Don't use --scan, or create the mdadm.conf config file.
But you are using a much newer mdadm. I don't know if this has been fixed or not, I guess not. The man page for mdadm has the details for the config file.

I'm using on my system[1] the mdadm tools[2] and I just tried one of the examples of the manpage: % mdadm --examine --brief --scan --config=partitions Segmentation fault I started up the ddd: in the routine 'load_conffile' the string "DEV partitions" will be passed to the routine 'devline'. And this routine pass this parameter to the macro 'dl_next' and I think (after seeing the definition of 'dl_next') this is brocken. Can somebody confirm this bug? I don't know how to fix this so there is no patch in this mail sorry.
