So it looks like during install time, in d-i, the system were named "hetzer" (most likely due to DHCP), and all md arrays were created using that name. And later on, it fails to boot with actual hostname. Note that mdadm.conf in initrd contains name "hetzer", while actual arrays are named "file". Is your real hostname "file" ? /mjt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
