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
