Hi,
I am running debian sarge linux kernel 2.6.8. I boot from a sata
drive /dev/sda, and set up a raid5 on /dev/hda, /dev/hdc, /dev/hde, /dev/hdg.
I turned off udev, and created /dev/md0 and I loaded raid5 module into
initrd.img.
I set up a raid5 to start up at boot by configuring raidtools2 debian package
which runs "raid2" script during /etc/rcS.d.
Weird is, raid5 does not start on /dev/md0 during bootup
( i enclose the dmesg error log which says that there are errors trying)
but after bootup when I do
raidstart /dev/md0
after boot, it starts like a charm...
Any ideas what causes the errors in the log????
Here is the output of dmesg during boot.

moreover,
once i run

Now it mounts normally.
Any idea what is wrong here???
