Several separate bugs! * the md module wasn't being loaded because it'd been renamed to md-mod, and even when that was fixed md-mod wasn't being loaded because modprobe doesn't put out the insmod line we'd expect from the modprobe documentation. * mdrun attempts to create an /dev/md/0. I gave up and replaced mdrun with "mkdir /dev/md; mdadm --scan --auto". for full details. And I'm pleased to report that udev properly creates the symlinks from /dev/mdN to /dev/md/N -- mdrun's symlinking is not required. -- Moshe Yudkowsky work: http://www.Disaggregate.com book: http://www.PebbleAndAvalanche.com ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
