I considered it a necessary step in my analysis, but if you prefer to do things your way, it's your system. Note that I would have never proposed anything that made permanent changes without adequate warning. > I'm not reporting this bug because I must have an amd64 kernel- > like I said, the 686 and 686bigmem kernels are working. > I initiated this bug to help get the amd64 version of the kernel > (or mdadm?) fixed.

I think your problem is that the kernel doesn't initialise the drives you're using properly, so mdadm doesn't find them when trying to assemble. You will have to make sure the kernel sees your drives. From what you've allowed me to see, I can conclude that this is not a RAID problem. -- .''`. martin f. krafft <madd...@d.o> Related projects: : :' : proud Debian developer http://debiansystem.info `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck http://vcs-pkg.org `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems fashions have done more harm than revolutions. -- victor hugo
