Since md2 is his root fs, that means a.) boot from alternate media or b.) use boot parameter rd.break=pre-mount and do it at the dracut shell, but this might require manually running the array, I'm not sure whether it will be running at this point but it probably won't be mounted (check first). -- Chris Murphy -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
