Is this the problem I encountered when I added auto=md to my mdadm.conf file?


It caused all sorts of problems - which were recoverable, fortunately.

I ended up putting a '/sbin/MAKEDEV md' into /etc/rc.sysinit just before the call to mdadm, but that creates all the md devices, not just those that are needed.

Will this new version allow me to remove this line in rc.sysinit again and put the 'auto=md' back into mdadm.conf?

Max.
