Partly Yes, Yes, No
Currently (i did a bit further - Included raid & md into kernel instead module)
the machine does not crash but gets stuck.
I am just able to press CTRL-ALT-ENTF but it doesnt reboot - It gets stuck
at "Unmounting filesystems" although i haven got anything mounted on raid.
With modules the machine didnt even accept "CTRL-ALT-ENTF".
