OK, I found the rootdelay paramater but it didn't do what it needed |
| 33 |
(presumably because the root partition wasn't mounted so creating |
| 34 |
entries in /dev didn't happen any faster.) |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
I added the following three lines to add a delay: |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
# Delay to allow devices to register |
| 39 |
einfo "Waiting for RAID devices to settle/register..." |
| 40 |
sleep 25 |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
I've rebooted a few times and it starts up correctly now. I don't really |
| 43 |
care if that PC starts in two seconds, I need it to start up |
| 44 |
consistently as it's acting as a server. |
