The RAID5 array is still a problem, dmesg says:
md: running: <sdc2><sdb2><sda2> raid5: device sdb2 operational as raid disk 0 raid5: device sda2 operational as raid disk 1 raid5: cannot start dirty degraded array for md1
Odd. Perhaps a bug. Not sure it will help, but try upgrading mdadm to latest stable (v2.5 or so).
raid5: failed to run raid set md1 md: pers->run() failed ... md: do_md_run() returned -5
Rather unhelpful to not print an error message. Unfortunately, I've no clue what -5 means, or where one may look up do_md_run() errors. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-raid" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
