** Description changed: Binary package hint: mdadm Hi, I could not boot from my /dev/md1 -> /dev/vg01/lv_root partition, because the initrd could not assemble the md0 and md1 devices. After reading mdadm.conf, I added these two lines to my config: # definitions of existing MD arrays ARRAY /dev/md0 devices=/dev/sda1,/dev/sdb1 ARRAY /dev/md1 devices=/dev/sda5,/dev/sdb5 and updated initramfs. After this, the system started normally. Before figuring out this, I used dpkg-reconfigure mdadm. So this seems to produce a non working config, which is copied to the initrd. Kind regards Christian -> However on hotplug systems mdadm.conf should not have to contain any references to specific DEVICEs, ARRAYs or HOMEHOST. - -> We need to switch to a pure and secure UUID-based raid assembly, - after the boot up scripts already support and use UUIDs.
