--- Begin Message ---Package: mdadm Version: 2.6.8-12-gb47dff6-2 Severity: important Tags: patch After recent upgrade, mdadm stopped working for me. The modules did not load and thus array was not assembled. Manual inspection revealed, that when modprobe is called as: modprobe -kq md from /etc/init.d/mdadm-raid, it complains about unrecognized option -k and does nothing. People who have root on md device are not affected, because the script used in initramfs does not specify that option. Attached patch removes -k option from all invocations of modprobe I found in the package. The one in mdadm-raid was the one that hit me. Since there was no upgrade of mdadm, but there was upgrade of module-init-tools, I am CC'ing it's maintainer. I leave it up to you to consider whether modprobe should silently ignore -k for compatibility with legacy scripts. Because I use etckeeper, I can tell you the packages I upgraded between last successful and today's unsuccessful boot: Date: Sat Mar 14 11:18:21 2009 +0100 Package changes: -asciidoc 8.2.7-2 +asciidoc 8.2.7-3 -awesome 3.2~rc4-1 +awesome 3.2-1 -dictionaries-common 1.1.1 +dictionaries-common 1.2.0 -groff 1.18.1.1-21 -groff-base 1.18.1.1-21 +groff 1.18.1.1-22 +groff-base 1.18.1.1-22 -libdes425-3 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-9 +libdes425-3 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-11 -libgssapi-krb5-2 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-9 +libgssapi-krb5-2 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-11 -libgssrpc4 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-9 +libgssrpc4 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-11 -libhesiod0 3.0.2-18.3 +libhesiod0 3.0.2-19 -libk5crypto3 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-9 -libkadm5srv5 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-9 +libk5crypto3 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-11 +libkadm5srv5 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-11 -libkdb5-4 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-9 +libkdb5-4 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-11 -libkrb5-3 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-9 -libkrb5-dev 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-9 -libkrb53 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-9 -libkrb5support0 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-9 +libkrb5-3 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-11 +libkrb5-dev 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-11 +libkrb53 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-11 +libkrb5support0 1.6.dfsg.4~beta1-11 -mc 2:4.6.2~git20080311-4 +mc 2:4.6.2-1 -module-init-tools 3.7-pre5-1 +module-init-tools 3.7-pre9-1 -x11proto-core-dev 7.0.14-2 +x11proto-core-dev 7.0.15-1 Date: Fri Mar 13 17:02:26 2009 +0100 Package changes: -alsa-base 1.0.17.dfsg-4 +alsa-base 1.0.19.dfsg-1 -autoconf-doc 2.59-3 -kde-icons-oxygen 4:4.2.1-1 +kde-icons-oxygen 4:4.2.1-2 -kdebase-runtime 4:4.2.1-1 -kdebase-runtime-bin-kde4 4:4.2.1-1 -kdebase-runtime-data 4:4.2.1-1 +kdebase-runtime 4:4.2.1-2 +kdebase-runtime-bin-kde4 4:4.2.1-2 +kdebase-runtime-data 4:4.2.1-2 -kdelibs-bin 4:4.2.1-1 +kdelibs-bin 4:4.2.1-2 -kdelibs5 4:4.2.1-1 -kdelibs5-data 4:4.2.1-1 +kdelibs5 4:4.2.1-2 +kdelibs5-data 4:4.2.1-2 -libpod-pom-perl 0.17-6 +libpod-pom-perl 0.18-1 -libxi-dev 2:1.2.0-2 -libxi6 2:1.2.0-2 +libxi-dev 2:1.2.1-1 +libxi6 2:1.2.1-1 -libxrandr-dev 2:1.2.3-1 -libxrandr2 2:1.2.3-1 +libxrandr-dev 2:1.3.0-1 +libxrandr2 2:1.3.0-1 -linux-sound-base 1.0.17.dfsg-4 +linux-sound-base 1.0.19.dfsg-1 -x11proto-randr-dev 1.2.99.3-2 +x11proto-randr-dev 1.3.0-1 -- Package-specific info: --- mount output /dev/sda1 on / type ext3 (rw,relatime) tmpfs on /lib/init/rw type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,mode=0755) proc on /proc type proc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) procbususb on /proc/bus/usb type usbfs (rw) udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw,mode=0755) tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,noexec,nosuid,gid=5,mode=620) /dev/md0 on /home type ext3 (rw,relatime) /home/.tmp on /tmp type none (rw,bind) binfmt_misc on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev) --- I have reinstalled the package while trying to find the root of the problem.
