I cannot confirm this bug.
I use this kernel command line:

Hi Mika,
the additional test before calling fai-divert was added because in
the next FAI release, we will move from sysv to systemd by default.
I think I will not drop the code for sysv support immediately.

I've check with the upcoming FAI version, and there the md device
names do start with md0.
I've already added your fix to the git repo.

regards Thomas
FYI: Since the next FAI version will move to systemd I will not add an
override.

Hi,
if you want to create a .vdi image just call
# fai-diskimage . image.vdi
What else is needed as an example?
