[Bug 83231] Re: linux software RAID not working after herd 3 installation..
Even more on this. I've i've got Feisty on 2 of my servers (IDE and SCSI drives in RAID1), these are the servers, so they aren't rebooted frequently. What I found was that the machine with SCSI drives would eventually fall to busybox upon reboot and I'd have to reboot it manually to get working. Today I rebooted the machine with IDE drives and it seems like the same thing happened (I didn't manage to physically get to the server yet). To sum this up, the bug is more nasty than it seems and udevsettle --timeout 10 doesn't help sort it out.

My box did boot fine showing that mdadm message though. The trouble began as I installed the server kernel and initrd images got regenerated. The box became unbootable. The proposed fix worked out, thanks for that, but I'm still getting an error message at system shutdown (like Stopping MD0 [fail]) and have no clue what's the reason for that.

Thanks Quikee. I tried your latest, most elegant workaround, and it worked great here. I don't think that this is an lvm problem, especially since me and a lot of the others here aren't using lvm. I am going to add udev to affected packages, since upgrading to udev-105 from debian unstable also fixed this bug.

If somebody else has already filed a new bug, DO NOT hijack it, please FILE ANOTHER NEW ONE.

[Bug 83231] Re: linux software RAID not working after herd 3 installation..
It's better as it is cleaner. For me the problem is from udev, so the correction should be in udev. udevsettle --timeout=10 waits for udev to end its works with a maximum of 10sec. So it should be shorter than the sleep 10 solution. -- linux software RAID not working after herd 3 installation.. https://launchpad.net/bugs/83231 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm having the same problem on a dmraid root partition. I've had a look at bug #85640 about problem on crypted root partition. It seems their problem is due to the fact that /dev is not completely populated when it try to decrypt. I wonder if we don't have the same kind of problem here... They solved it by using udevsettle.
