Package: mdadm
Version: 2.6.7.2-1
Severity: minor
This patch warns if /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf has some devices but not all.
I hadn't realised you were supposed to edit /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf each
time you created a new md device.
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/mdadm looks like it will ensure a
scan takes place if /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf is devoid of any MD devices.
However if you have an one from a long time ago (and have perhaps just
added another MD device into your root volume group), only the
original MD device is assembled in the initramfs and you can't boot.
Hopefully this will save someone else hitting this issue.

Source: mdadm
Binary: mdadm mdadm-udeb
Architecture: source amd64
Version: 2.6.9-1
Distribution: unstable
Urgency: low
Maintainer: Debian mdadm maintainers <[email protected]>
Changed-By: martin f. krafft <[email protected]>
Description:
mdadm - tool to administer Linux MD arrays (software RAID)
mdadm-udeb - tool to administer Linux MD arrays (software RAID) (udeb)
Closes: 497949 510641 516605 516802 519328 522300
Changes:
mdadm (2.6.9-1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* New upstream release.
* Do not set -eu in the bugscript to maximise information output in the case
of errors.
* Make initramfs script depend on multipath to ensure its script is run
before ours (closes: #516605).
* Provide an alternative (postfix) for mail-transport-agent (closes:
#522300). I chose postfix because that's the only one I could recommend,
and since the alternative does not affect people who already have an MTA
installed, or have a preference, it won't affect them.
* Honour debconf pre-selection of mdadm/initrdstart (closes: #516802).
* Incorporate patch from Adrian Bridgett: the initramfs hook now checks to
see if all known arrays are listed in mdadm.conf and issues a warning if
this is not the case (closes: #519328).
* Make checkarray skip over arrays still marked auto-read-only
(closes: #510641).
* Add cron.daily snippet from Paul Slootman to run one-shot scans every day
to ensure that failed arrays don't go unnoticed (closes: #497949).
* Bumped Standards-Version to 3.8.1; no changes necessary.
