It is independent of the type of underlying devices. The problem is that with incremental array assembly, when not all devices are present, we need some timer, and have to run the array with whatever number of devices available as we currently have. This is something I overlooked when switching from one-time array assembly to incremental mode. Incremental mode is needed when the underlying devices are slow, there were multiple bugreports about debian mdadm which can't assemble raid arrays on devices such as mpt or usb. Current initramfs-tools infrastructure does not have necessary infrastructure for such a timeout. But more important, personally I can't work with any package which touches debian-installer, because apparently some of the more important d-i team members dislikes me. So I can't really fix anything in mdadm anymore, as it produces d-i component. Thanks, /mjt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
