Description Erik Selberg 2001-10-25 06:03:56 UTC 
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0)

Description of problem:
I upgraded my RH 7.1 to RH 7.2. After it booted, raid0start failed because 
it couldn't load libpopt.so.0. This file is in /usr/lib/libpopt.so.0, and 
on my system /usr (and /usr/lib) weren't mounted yet, as raid is started 
immediately after the root filesystem is mounted. Workaround: I copied 
libpopt.so.0 into /lib, which is on the root FS.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Use a software raid disk (/dev/md0)
2. Put /usr and / on different partitions
3. Upgrade from RH 7.1 to 7.2
4. Watch it crash

	

Actual Results:  raid0start halted, as did boot-up. Then got into maint 
mode. Wee!

Expected Results:  Either (a) raid0start would have found libpopt.so.0 in 
the root filesystem (/lib) or /usr would have been mounted before raid, 
so /usr/lib would be available for raid0start.

Random thought: this is /sbin/raid0start. Perhaps raid0start (symlink'd to 
mkraid) isn't STATIC like it should be in /sbin? :)
