Re: Converting system to raid

Is that 
  /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf
or
/mnt/md0/etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf

Both are the same in his case, but of chroot moves the root point to the array, shouldn't it look at that conf?

Yes, he should provide correct /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf and
update-initramfs -u on md boot, smth like
chroot /mnt/md0
update-initramfs -u
