I'm not sure about scsi drives, but for RAID-1 IDE drives I find that I have
to add a -h argument to the halt script.
The last lines of:
/etc/init.d/halt
are:
HALTARGS="-i -d -h"
[ -f /poweroff -o ! -f /halt ] && HALTARGS="$HALTARGS -p"
exec $command $HALTARGS
What I have found is that by adding a -h (man halt: Put all harddrives on
the system in standby mode just before halt or poweroff), this somehow
flushes the drives and I don't have rebuild problems upon reboot. However,
this works for FC 1 systems and I do not know if this is still neccessary
for other distros.
