Right. The installer doesn't run this. It was just an example. But when mdadm is installed in the chroot, it doesn't know about the RAID devices and runs this command to find out what they are and to create a config. > It would be safer to use > mdadm -As > to ensure all arrays are assembled, then > mdadm -Ds > to create mdadm.conf > > ... but why do you even want to create mdadm.conf ??? I'll let madduck answer this. In any case, it seems the short-time fix for this bug is to make sure /dev/md/X are created in Debian installer. -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
