Description Bruno Wolff III 2009-04-20 00:23:18 UTC
Description of problem:
When using rescue mode to try to fix up a munged install I was seeing improperly set up raid devices (one element each according to /proc/mdstat) and I needed to stop them and then restart them manually in order to be able to use them.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
The boot.iso was from April 19th and should be based on anaconda 11.5.0.46-1.

How reproducible:
Seems to happen everytime when booting to recover this particular install.
I don't know if it is a problem for any system using raid 1.
This was on i686 system.

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Expected results:

Several fixes for pre-existing mdraid have gone into anaconda-11.5.0.47-1. Please reopen this bug if the problem still exists with that version of anaconda.
