From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.78 [en] (Win98; U) Description of problem: A direct result of the fix to bug 51231 "Bug in GREP causes raid initialization to fail" appears to be that rc.sysinit now attempts to raidstart devices which are not actually defined in /etc/raidtab Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 5.84.1-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Edit /etc/raidtab and insert a comment like, for example: # sample raiddev configuration file 2. Reboot Actual Results: rc.sysinit will try to raidstart device "sample". Expected Results: rc.sysinit should ignore the comment line. Additional info: While I found this when looking for the source of a startup error message on a server running RHL 7.1, I believe that this bug occurrs in RHL 7.2 as well (it seems to use the same regular expression). I would humbly suggest that you replace the line: for i in `grep "^[^*]*raiddev" /etc/raidtab | awk '{print $2}'` with the line: for i in `grep "^[[:space:]]*raiddev" /etc/raidtab | awk '{print $2}'` Which should, AFAICT, fix this without re-breaking 51231
