Description of problem: I've just installed fc10 x86_64 on a dmraid-raid1-partition using a netinstall. After the installation the system started without dmraid, so it destroyed the raid. I've tried to build a working initrd using mkinitrd, but mkinitrd just builded an initrd without dmraid. The raid-hw is a VIA VT6420 but I assume this is not important. The entry for the root-partiton in /etc/fstab used an UUID. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mkinitrd-6.0.71-3.fc10.x86_64 How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install FC 10 into a dmraid-partition 2. Boot the freshly installed system 3. Type mount in a session Actual results: A plain partition is mounted, the raid destroyed. Expected results: A dmraid partition should be mounted Additional info: Kernel 2.6.27.12-170.2.5.fc10.x86_64 The partition onto which I installed was formatted with ext4. Bug 478355 is about mdraid and not about dmraid or an installation. Bug 484120 is about a failed post-installation but not about mkinitrd.
This is a known issue, please restart the installer in rescue mode, then update mkinitrd to this version: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=82459 (which is on its way to updates testing), regenerate your initrd and then things should work.
