Is this the problem I encountered when I added auto=md to my mdadm.conf
file?
It caused all sorts of problems - which were recoverable, fortunately.
I ended up putting a '/sbin/MAKEDEV md' into /etc/rc.sysinit just before
the call to mdadm, but that creates all the md devices, not just those
that are needed.
Will this new version allow me to remove this line in rc.sysinit again
and put the 'auto=md' back into mdadm.conf?
Max.
