Today a new kernel version entered testing and I thought i could give it a try first and it worked :-) => the update of linux-image-3.2.0-2-amd64:amd64 from 3.2.12-1 to 3.2.14-1 fixed at least my problem. some details: - adding external disk while having internal bitmap still silently fails (only hint is mdadm exit status=1) this works: - remove internal bitmap - add disk and wait for sync - add internal bitmap (no kernel panic anymore) - fail/remove/re-add works again greetings karme -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
