According to the man page, using 'partitions' as your DEVICE should cause mdadm to read /proc/partitions and scan all partitions listed there. The sda*/sdb* partitions were in /proc/partitions (at least after the machine fully booted) but for some reason when mdadm assembled the array it was not adding those partitions. Changing the DEVICE to '/dev/hd* /dev/sd*' rather than 'partitions' resolved the issue. - 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
