Package: mdadm Version: 3.1.4-1+8efb9d1 Severity: critical Tags: d-i Justification: breaks the whole system
during install of squeeze i partitioned my disks and setup different MD-RAID devices using the partition tool. the corresponding /dev/mdX devices were created properly and i went on creating LVM ontop of it and successfully installed the system. first boot into my new system failed because the root FS could not be found, leaving me in a initramfs-shell. i assembled my RAID devices by hand and compared /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf (inside initramfs) with 'mdadm --examine --scan', which listed completely different UUIDs. the count of my MD-devices was ok, but all names were prefixed with hostname 'hetzner'. after booting, fixing (the systems) /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf and update-initramfs all went fine. i don't remember the exact content, but install generated a mdadm.conf like: ARRAY /dev/md/0 metadata=1.2 UUID=12345678:12345678:12345678:12345678 name=hetzner:0 ARRAY /dev/md/1 metadata=1.2 UUID=24680135:24680135:24680135:24680135 name=hetzner:1 ARRAY /dev/md/2 metadata=1.2 UUID=abcdef12:abcdef12:abcdef12:abcdef12 name=hetzner:2 (UUIDs are made up) disks used were new & empty and had no affiliation to hetzner online AG you can search the net for '"name=hetzner:" mdadm.conf' to yield probably the original UUIDs. pille --- initrd.img-2.6.32-5-amd64: 47498 blocks 3718babf31303bc28114430ec0182e14 ./etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf d24ed7389311fb002ff017c8acb3a032 ./lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/kernel/drivers/md/dm-mirror.ko 4818680648975a4d4181181df95de446 ./lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/kernel/drivers/md/dm-log.ko bb013669544366b71ebd8b335a7d8b0a ./lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/kernel/drivers/md/dm-mod.ko ee2079d7e0bf4da6b64af9e579f6c0ae ./lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/kernel/drivers/md/raid456.ko b210dd35ca38b2e33637351a979561c9 ./lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/kernel/drivers/md/multipath.ko 0c8325eb1abcf4ad33e45a20d44c5bf8 ./lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/kernel/drivers/md/dm-crypt.ko f25a213d65a481b66cfdbf8f6453aacf ./lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/kernel/drivers/md/dm-region-hash.ko cc5177855661025115a2ef74d0d394d6 ./lib/modules/2.6.32-5-amd64/kernel/drivers/md/raid0.ko -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0.2 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages mdadm depends on: ii debconf 1.5.36.1 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii lsb-base 3.2-23.2squeeze1 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii udev 164-3 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo Versions of packages mdadm recommends: ii exim4-daemon-light [mail 4.72-6+squeeze2 lightweight Exim MTA (v4) daemon ii module-init-tools 3.12-1 tools for managing Linux kernel mo mdadm suggests no packages. -- debconf information: mdadm/autostart: true mdadm/mail_to: root mdadm/initrdstart_msg_errmd: mdadm/initrdstart: all mdadm/initrdstart_msg_errconf: mdadm/initrdstart_notinconf: false mdadm/initrdstart_msg_errexist: mdadm/initrdstart_msg_intro: mdadm/autocheck: true mdadm/initrdstart_msg_errblock: mdadm/start_daemon: true -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
