assuming you have the correct initramfs for your kernel with correct driver for raid, you may try to pass "debug=y" to the kernel command line. initramfs should pick it up and maybe output some interesting information before it panics. most notably what device it tries to use for /root/. otherwise you'll have to go through initramfs-tools scripts (/usr/share/initramfs-tools) and add this info yourself, regenerate initrafs and try again. One problem I had once upon a time is, that for some reason initrafs couldn't detect my root filesystem, so I had to add "rootfstype=ext3" to the kernel command line. mk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
