I'm still working on how it works because I'm still unclear whether this is a kernel feature, or just a result of init scripts. An older RedHat reference: > http://www.redhat.com/support/resources/tips/raid/RAID-4.html Autodetection works in kernel, before kernel tries to mount root filesystem. At this time, kernel looks at all partitions of type "raid autodetect" to see if this is a part of an array, and brings up all it can find (In fact, this seems to be not true sisnce at least on 2.2 here, only root mddev is started while another two also marked as "autodetect"). The rest is done in initscripts, after root filesystem gets mounted (kernel has no clue about initscripts at all). /mjt - 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
