BTW, I had to add the 'mdadm -Ss --wait-clean' command to a KDE shutdown script (instead of one of the normal system shutdown scripts under /etc/init.d) because the shutdown scripts would not wait for this command to complete. It takes long enough to '--wait-clean' that something during shutdown wo

The files that have to be customized or overridden by adding hooks under /etc are: /lib/udev/rules.d/64-md-raid.rules /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/mdadm so I think this is more of an MDADM issue instead of a generic setup/config issue. But, that depends on which package actually owns thes

Ben McCann, it would be most helpful if this documented procedure is noted in the Ubuntu Community documentation https://help.ubuntu.com/ . Would you say the fact you have to make post-default configuration MDAM hooks to get RAID to work would be a bug in MDAM or a setup/configuration issue (ex. b

I found and fixed this problem and it has nothing to do with the kernel. Intel RAID is *extremely* finicky and I remembered that it required two tweaks to the initrd build process. I originally implemented those tweaks in a couple of the MDADM 'hook' files under /usr/share. That was my mistake. Th

Thanks for the feedback, Ben. Can you test the 3.2.45 kernel, since 3.2.46 does not have an amd64 kernel: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.2.45-precise/ If 3.2.45 is good, I'll build a 3.2.46 kernel for testing. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of

I can't test 3.2.46 because there are no amd64 packages available in http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v3.2.46-precise. (There were no Intel CPU packages at all). I did test 3.2.47 and 3.2.48 images and *both* of them fail to detect my Intel fakeraid array. I also looked into updating

I'm reluctant to upgrade the BIOS on a PC that is otherwise working fine but I agree that my BIOS is quite out of date. So, I'll probably upgrade tomorrow. (Have to go to work now). That said, I'm skeptical upgrading the BIOS would matter because Linux 3.2.0-49 works fine and 3.2.0-51 doesn't. Som
