Okay, this problem has actually already been solved in 2.6.2-2. http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-mdadm/mdadm.git;a=commit;h=09b38346e8afe9e8f203bbca9ab60a2cf004898d > What in debconf tells me that this is atcually the init script > running?

Between that apt-get install and the "failure", mdadm asks you two things: Please enter MD arrays needed for the root filesystem, or 'none'. Do you want to start MD arrays automatically? It should have seeded the first one with none if there are no arrays available (thus disabling the initramfs), and if you answered 'yes' for the second one, then the init.d script does its thing. > and sure, the initscript could be disabled, but it would still be nice if > one could assemble those arrays :) > > (which is a feature request, really, as I have hopefully already written). Can you try to set INITRDSTART=none and AUTOSTART=no in /etc/default/mdadm and then let me know what you are still missing? -- .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' : proud Debian developer, author, administrator, and user `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck - http://debiansystem.info `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems "never eat more than you can lift." -- miss piggy
