Re: RAID issue (Fedora 9 issue?)

Hi

I use Debian so nothing Fedora specific, sorry.

For others, I note from the name of your initrd that you are running x86_64 and
2.6.26.5-45.fc9

So the arrays seem to be OK. Good :)

Which mdadm.conf? The one on /dev/md6?
Youy need to check/update the one in the initrd.

Shouldn't have changed though unless you did a rebuild or something.

What superblock version are you using?
Is it possible the hostname changed? Later superblocks care about the homehost
(never used this feature so I don't know if you have to invoke it - just
throwing it out there).

OK
Kernel patches? Or rpms?
