I just set up a new Debian unstable box.
It's running 2.6.18.1 kernel.
I created RAID-1 on two disks, with no data or filesystem on it.
As I'm still experimenting with the box, I reboot it quite frequently.
I noticed that RAID-1 resync starts from the very beginning after each
reboot. Is it normal?
No.
Has the resync finished when you shut down?
No, it was still running.
How do you shut down?
I simply type "reboot", so it should shutdown/reboot cleanly.
Can you post the kernel logs from boot up to when the resync has
started?

(it has so many raid levels, as I'm still experimenting with it).
