** Description changed: Binary package hint: mdadm + after a timeout mdadm in initrams degrades all arrays instead of just + those required for the rootfs. - The dependencies are not checked, it looks into /proc/mdstat and uses "mdadm --assemble --scan --run". + The dependencies are not checked and saved to initramfs. Instead the script just looks into /proc/mdstat and uses "mdadm --assemble --scan --run" starting all arrays, if some arrays are incomplete (very likely during initramfs state). (Additionaly a legacy non-hotplug command.) - - The best way to fix the so many mdadm bugs is probably to adopt the event driven upstart/mountall init within intiramfs. + The best way to fix the so many mdadm bugs is probably to adopt the + event driven upstart/mountall init within intiramfs.
