RAID worked fine under TSL2.1, including auto detect on boot.
After upgrading to TSL2.2, running kernel 2.4.29, I don't get an "md:
autorun ..." after it's just found a controller card that might (in
fact, does) contain a valid RAID. The partitions are still type "0xfd".
Do you have an /etc/mdadm.conf? It should contain something like this:
DEVICE /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1
ARRAY /dev/md1 level=raid1 devices=/dev/sda1,/dev/sdb1
Thanks. I'm just messing around with very small stuff here, so I don't
usually need mdadm.conf - and had forgotten about it.
That's a lot cleaner than starting the RAID manually.
Also, you could try adding the module to /etc/modules to force an early load
of it, though I have no idea if that could possibly help.
All the modules are in the initrd.
"mkinitrd --with=raid0 --with=raid1 --with=scsi_mod --with=sd_mod
--with=iteraid /boot/initrd-bzImage.img 2.4.29-2tr"
Whilst looking in the kernel list I found that 2.6.10-ac12 has a very
nice driver for my card. I'll probably end up using that kernel.
Both the 2.6.10-ac12 kernel and a vanilla 2.4.29 kernel will autodetect
correctly, but not 2.4.29-2tr.
Could still be me that's the problem, of course, but I thought I'd
mention it anyway - in case others start throwing up similar problems.
