So here is my problem. Any time I reboot only the partitions on the first drive are active. If I switch drives it's always the first one that is active.
I'm not sure about scsi drives, but for RAID-1 IDE drives I find that I have to add a -h argument to the halt script.
The last lines of: /etc/init.d/halt
are:
HALTARGS="-i -d -h" [ -f /poweroff -o ! -f /halt ] && HALTARGS="$HALTARGS -p"
exec $command $HALTARGS
What I have found is that by adding a -h (man halt: Put all harddrives on the system in standby mode just before halt or poweroff), this somehow flushes the drives and I don't have rebuild problems upon reboot. However, this works for FC 1 systems and I do not know if this is still neccessary for other distros.
