From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.1) Gecko/20020827 Description of problem: When booting with a raid 5 array the boot fails due to library dependancies. output of ldd /sbin/mkraid libpopt.so.0 => /usr/lib/libpopt.so.0 (0x40027000) libc.so.6 => /lib/i686/libc.so.6 (0x4002e000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000) /usr is not mounted when system loads raid. Correct fix would be to use no dynamic libraries in /sbin or /bin binaries. The redhat fix will probly be move the popt package to /lib Quick fix copy libpopt to /lib Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.make a raid 5 array with persistant superblocks 2.reboot the system 3.Watch boot fail when it can't load the raid 5 array Actual Results: Boots into single user mode Expected Results: Boot into proper run level Additional info: All binaries in /bin and /sbin should be compiled staticly. At very least all libraries needed by binaries in /bin and /sbin should be in /lib.
