Public bug reported:
the /scripts/local-top/mdadm script is broken in initrd-
img-2.6.20-16-386. My boot partition is /dev/sda1 and I'm using lvm on
top of a mirror on /dev/sda3 and /dev/sdb1. I get dumped into the
busybox shell on boot and have to run
mdadm --assemble /dev/md0 /dev/sda3 /dev/sdb1
by hand.
After that, the lvm volumes show up so I type 'exit' and it boots up w/
no problems.
The /scripts/local-top/mdadm script doesn't build the
/etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf file properly. This chunk of code doesn't work:
CONFIG=/etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf
# in case the hook failed to install a configuration file, this is our last
# attempt... the "emergency procedure"... <drumroll>
if [ ! -e $CONFIG ]; then
log_warning_msg "missing mdadm.conf file, trying to create one..."
mkdir -p ${CONFIG%/*}
echo DEVICE partitions > $CONFIG
$MDADM --examine --scan >> $CONFIG <<<<--------------PROBLEM!!!!!!! nothing
detected here!!!
if [ -s $CONFIG ]; then
verbose && log_success_msg "mdadm.conf created."
else
verbose && log_failure_msg "could not create mdadm.conf, the boot will
likely fail."
