37 I continue to see this problem. I booted multiple times this morning
38 and cannot get the system to show /dev/sde:

66 sda, sdb & sdc are RAID1 partition drives. sdd & sde are RAID0. As sde
67 is not seen the RAID0 cannot be started.
68
69 I have rebooted mutiple times. BIOS says the drives are there and are
70 functional, at least as far as SMART data is concerned.
71
72 This is vanilla-sources as a few weeks ago anyway there wasn't yet the
73 right gentoo-sources to support my video card. That has probably
74 changed by now so I'll try that.

106 I note in the info at the very end there are daemons for device-mapper
107 and udev-mount that are not running. Would they be involuved in this
108 problem?

110 Anyone who can give some guidance, please do.
