No, I come along at S25 and I do not give a flying food for whether /dev/md0 exists or not.

Thanks! I think it would be best if you could file a new (wishlist) bug against mdadm and attach the patch to that, so that we can treat the two as separate issues. -- .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' : proud Debian developer, admin, user, and author `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system Invalid/expired PGP subkeys?
