That would probably happen if mdadm is still syncing the RAID when the initrd is created (during kernel installation in base-installer). While the array is being synced, the secondary device is not yet active. One option would be to detect this and display a dialog while waiting for this process to finish. We could probably even display a progress bar using info from mdadm. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
