I have a similar problem. I usually can't boot, and I get these floods of "already has disks" messages. I've found it goes away if I explicitly describe my array in mdadm.conf (listing the devices in the array) and rebuild the initramfs.
I'm intrigued by this OOM. I get something that looks similar if I boot with mem=128M. I get several OOMs until the kernel runs out of processes to kill (init is last) and then panics. Maybe limiting the system to 128M just puts it under too much stress. But I wonder the loop which generates this message and consumes too much memory is inside the kernel. -- long bootup, dmesg full of md: array md1 already has disks! https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/139802 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
