Could someone toss me a pointer as to who owns > mkinitrd at RHEL/Centos so I can report this? Basically this is not a > linux-raid bug, but a bug in the mkinitrd assumptions (or possibly > something that needs to be built into the kernel which is not > explicitly indicated in mkinitrd). http://bugzilla.redhat.com would be the first step since CentOS is rebuilding from upstream (bugs included), although it could provided it's own features in the extras repository. http://bugs.centos.org could also be used for RFE in CentOS extras http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories has a list of "recommended" repositories. One caveat, I am not sure that this bug will ever be fixed since rebuilding a custom kernel is not really supported on both distributions.
