I switched kernel versions during that server rebuild. Last running
system was with 3.2.5, then rebuild and switch to 3.3.1 ant with that it
crashed. Kernel is vanilla selfcompiled, x86_64.
mdadm is 3.1.5, selfcompiled, too.

Yes, i found that, but as i reordered and rewired the drives due to
thermal reasons so I have no idea which drive was mapped to which device
name. In the normal system logs are only the model names and i had
multiple drives of the same type.
