I have two systems, both freshly installed Sarge systems, both with a RAID 5 array (3 drives plus a spare each). One is working perfectly. The other has a problem whenever it boots (and I've had a number of power failures lately). When the system boots, the RAID is not started. I have to run mdrun to start the RAID. Once it's started, when I try mounting it, I always get a message that it has a bad superblock. I have to run fsck, which fixes it, and then I can mount it and it works fine.
I tried dpkg-reconfigure and specifically told it to start on boot and to start the monitor on boot, but that hasn't helped. This array, when running, is a 290GB RAID, so it takes a long time to fsck and it currently holds 115GB of data. So why won't this RAID restart on boot when the other does? Thanks for any help!
