I've been upgrading a debian testing machine pretty regularly. This machine has a RAID1 across /dev/hde1 and /dev/hdg1. Over this holiday weekend, I rebooted the machine for the first time in a few weeks. Now, I seem to have lost my RAID devices.
Looking at the machine after it boot up and complains about not being able to find my LVM logical devices that live on the /dev/md0 RAID device, I see that I have /dev/hde and /dev/hdg, but I don't have /dev/hde1 or /dev/hdg1 on my machine anymore. Should I just recreate those by hand? I think that they're supposed to be there, right? How could a simple apt-get update; apt-get upgrade lose some of my devices? Some additional info: since my root device is not on the RAID, I generally don't worry about getting the RAID devices up during initial boot. That is dpkg-reconfigure -plow mdadm Set the devices to bring up to none. Then have it bring up all other RAID devices at the end of the init sequence. I'm hoping to figure this out soon since /home lives on the RAID.
