10 So, back from speed-lunch now ;-)
11
12 While cooking the pasta I got a bit further:
13
14 Box boots now with kernel 3.14.1 and with commented LVs in fstab.
15
16 When I login and check there are no mdadm-raids assembled.
17
18 When I "mdadm -A --scan" they get correctly assembled:
19
20
21 # cat /proc/mdstat
22 Personalities : [raid1]
23 md4 : active raid1 sdb3[0] sdc6[2]
24 52395904 blocks super 1.2 [2/2] [UU]
25
26 md1 : active raid1 sdb6[0] sdc3[1]
27 623963072 blocks [2/2] [UU]
28
29 (Don't ask for the strange setup with sdb3/sdc6 and sdb6/sdc3,
30 historically grown somehow ...)
31
32 "vgchange -ay" then gets me all my LVs. Great so far.
33
34 So the question is, what part of the whole setup should now assemble the
35 arrays?
36
37 I think, dracut, right?
38
39 So I will now test booting with these funny "rd.auto" kernel line
40 parameters ...
41
42 Has mdadm.service to be enabled as well? Or is that redundant in a way?
43
44 Stefan
