My apologies if this is not the right place to ask this question.
Hopefully it is.
I created a RAID5 array with:
mdadm --create /dev/md0 --level=5 --raid-devices=5 /dev/sda1 /dev/sdb1
/dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1 /dev/sde1
mdadm -D /dev/md0 verifies the devices has a persistent super-block, but
upon reboot, /dev/md0 does not get automatically assembled (an hence is
not a installable/bootable device).
I have created several raid1 arrays and one raid5 array this way and
have never had this problem. In all fairness, this is the first time I
have used mdadm for the job. Usually, I boot to something like
SysRescueCD, used raidtools to create my array and then reboot with my
Slackware install CD.
Anyone know why this might be happening?
