Package: mdadm Version: 3.0-2 Severity: normal
I upgraded grub and mdadm this afternoon, and whilst the process appeared successful, after rebooting the system would not come up - my mirrored root device was seemingly gone. Attempting to start it from the mdadm included in my initrd failed, claiming that there is no raid on /dev/hda1 nor /dev/hdb1 (where md0 lives). It did however happily start my raid5 array on /dev/sda1 and /dev/sdb1 (md1 - lvm host). Lacking any other initrd images to work from, I booted up to a partedmagic live cd, which using a 2.x version of mdadm, happily assembled my raid1 array. Once mounted, I noticed a backup initrd image in my /boot directory, which when used in place of the generated one, brought the system right up. mdadm 3 is happily working with my raid1 array now the system has booted. It's been a fraught afternoon - this was my internet router...so I've been reading this bug report on my mobile phone as a reference as I had no other access! -- Package-specific info: --- mount output /dev/md0 on / type ext3 (rw,errors=remount-ro) 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) 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/mapper/main-homes on /home type ext3 (rw,usrquota,grpquota,user_xattr,acl) /dev/mapper/main-static on /usr type ext3 (rw) /dev/mapper/main-variable on /var type ext3 (rw) rpc_pipefs on /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs type rpc_pipefs (rw) nfsd on /proc/fs/nfsd type nfsd (rw) --- mdadm.conf # mdadm.conf # # Please refer to mdadm.conf(5) for information about this file. # # by default, scan all partitions (/proc/partitions) for MD superblocks. # alternatively, specify devices to scan, using wildcards if desired.
