The rpm file for this one places mdadm and mdadm.conf under /usr. So you have: /usr/sbin/mdadm /usr/etc/mdadm.conf I rebuilt the rpm using mdadm.spec with: rpm -tb mdadm-0.8.tgz This is on a RedHat 7.2 system (2.4.18) and it correctly fixed mdadm.conf by placing it at /etc/mdadm.conf, but mdadm is still under /usr/sbin. I'm afraid this is beyond the scope of my knowledge of RPM, but I suspect that it's either a very simple fix in the .spec file, or I have a misconfigured system. Anyway, maybe this was intentional, but I'll make the case that both these files need to have / (not /usr) as their base, because mdadm and mdadm.conf should be on the root partition in the event that their was a problem during startup. --- Derek Vadala, derek@cynicism.com, http://www.cynicism.com/~derek - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
