Description of Problem: When RAID-arrays are started from within an initrd (using "raidautorun /dev/mdX" in linuxrc"), the boot fails in rc.sysinit. When trying to initialize the RAID arrays from within the script, it backs out with the error "raid device has already been started" or something. I have also been experiencing the "Typo in RAID setup"-bug from #71087. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): initscripts-6.67-1 How Reproducible: Very. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set your lilo config to use /dev/mdX as root file system, and modify /etc/fstab to use the same mdX as / filesystem. 2. Run mkinitrd with raidmodule loaded 3. Reboot. Boot raid array will be initialized in initrd, and the RAID initialization in rc.sysinit will fail. Actual Results: Expected Results: Additional Information:
Hm, we've done root on raid here before, without problems. Can you post the *exact* errors?
