Description of problem: By default 'mdadm' is installed and its startup service turned on. This results in the following message every time a machine is started Starting mdmpd: Kernel md module does not support events [FAILED] This message is rather misleading. That modules possibly does support events but it does not exist. How about abusing a modprobe a bit and adding close to the top of /etc/rc.d/init.d/mdmpd something like that: modprobe --show-depends md >/dev/null 2>&1 || exit 0 Hm, that would prevent mdmpd from running also for a custom kernel with md support "built-in"; but maybe then its existence can be checked by other means (through '/proc/mdstat')? Or I am mistaken here and mdmpd attempts to do something which it cannot? md driver is reported in dmesg: md: md driver 0.90.0 MAX_MD_DEVS=256, MD_SB_DISKS=27 md: Autodetecting RAID arrays. md: autorun ... md: ... autorun DONE. If the action is infeasible then why /etc/rc.d/init.d/mdmpd is not bailing out silently? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable) mdadm-1.5.0-3 How reproducible: Always
