[FIXED] Mageia 2: mdadm does not fully start RAID1 array

[m-fl]

I have upgraded from Mageia 1 to Mageia 2. My /home disk resides on a RAID 1 device consisting of 2 devices that are correctly specified in /etc/mdadm.conf.

After the first boot after the upgrade I noticed a renaming of the devices so I had to adjust the names in the /etc/mdadm.conf.

However during subsequent boots the first messages read:

Code: Select all

udevd[239]: failed to execute '/bin/bash' '/bin/bash -c '[ ! -f /dev/.in_sysinit ] && /sbin/mdadm --incremental /dev/sdb1'': No such file or directory
udevd[249]: failed to execute '/bin/bash' '/bin/bash -c '[ ! -f /dev/.in_sysinit ] && /sbin/mdadm --incremental /dev/sdc1": No such file or directory


Both devices are dedicated for the RAID device. After boot the RAID is started with only one drive. I did re-add the 2nd drive /dev/sdc1 using mdadm but after the next reboot the problem persists.

/etc/mdadm.conf reads now:

Code: Select all

 DEVICE /dev/sdb* /dev/sdc*
ARRAY /dev/md/0 metadata=1.2 UUID=89498e68:b6b21016:3d92295f:a3e10355 name=linha:0 auto=yes

Any help is greatly appreciated
Thanks

found this bug report which should fix it https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4768.

Works but I had to remake the initrd using

Code: Select all

bootloader-config --action rebuild-initrds

in order to work.
