I'm running into a bit of a hiccup with my RAID setup. I have several mirrored partitions between sda (SATA) and hda (ATA). Everything appears to be setup and mirroring correctly but upon reboot, only the sda partitions are added to the array. I can re-add the hda partitions manually and after syncing, they're back up and running like champs.
What documentation I've been able to find is a little confusing, some saying that the arrays should be detected and joined automatically and others saying about generating /etc/mdadm.conf. Basically, I think I'm missing a step somewhere and would appreciate a pointer of where to look.
