Description Jurgen Kramer 2010-11-07 10:07:02 UTC
Description of problem:
After installing F14 on my system with a raid5 md array on separate disks it was not online (and dmesg showed a segfault in mdadm).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
anaconda version that came with F14 install DVD (x86_64)

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install F14 on empty HDD
2. Disk partitioning shows the software raid partitions -> keep intact
3. Finish installation 
  
Actual results:
No md0 raid device

Expected results:
Working md0 raid device

Additional info:
The raid array was created with F11 and is/was running properly. I did supply the correct /etc/mdadm.conf. Checking the kernel messages and the output of /proc/mdstat suggested the raid is not online due to dracut configuration. The kernel line in /etc/grub.conf shows rd_NO_MD !! after removing this and rerunning dracut the raid array is working as it should.
