The output below is definitely not for AMD-64, and it looks to me like it might be "Squeeze" or "Sid", not "Lenny". >From the "Lenny" AMD-64 Package.bz2 file: Package: mdadm Priority: optional Section: admin Installed-Size: 776 Maintainer: Debian mdadm maintainers <pkg-mdadm-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Architecture: amd64 Version: 2.6.7.2-3 Replaces: mdctl Depends: libc6 (>= 2.7-1), udev | makedev, debconf (>= 1.4.72), lsb-base (>= 3.1-6) Recommends: exim4 | mail-transport-agent, module-init-tools Conflicts: initramfs-tools (<< 0.65), mdctl (<< 0.7.2), raidtools2 (<< 1.00.3-12.1) Filename: pool/main/m/mdadm/mdadm_2.6.7.2-3_amd64.deb Size: 273876 MD5sum: a3755364dcc80be5d940a3d423eb55a9 SHA1: a0ee5083f213f70bbb96cb8fd5b2f89a5cb8ddd3 SHA256: 10add842a74034592b8647c8e70a69502e3d915413a7da640c0172d02ef9ee7d Description: tool to administer Linux MD arrays (software RAID) The mdadm utility can be used to create, manage, and monitor MD (multi-disk) arrays for software RAID or multipath I/O. .
