Raid 1, but only arrays with 2 elements have been affected so far. I have some arrays set up with only one element (so that I can easily add another one later) and so far none of those have had a problem. But the sample size is small. > using strictly software raid?

Does that mean udev is probably the correct component to file a bug in this case? -- fedora-test-list mailing list fedora-test-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-test-list
