Hello, I have a machine with an LSI Megaraid Sofware RAID fakeraid, which uses ddf format. About two weeks ago, when I wanted to install the machine, I configured a RAID 1 array in the BIOS config utility and then booted the machine from PXE with an NFSROOT. mdadm and dmraid are installed in the NFSROOT, dracut is used for initrd generation. As dracut prefers mdadm over dmraid, mdadm was chosen for RAID management. But though mdadm detected the RAID (it created container device /dev/md127 and raid device /dev/md126), it destroyed it - that is, though I did not perform any action on the raid disks, at the next boot, the BIOS RAID utility had "forgotten" about the RAID configuration it had created before. Why are the possible reasons for that?
