Yes. The full chain of events is:
- boot biarch kernel with "quota" added to kernel command line into
i386 Debian.
- Start RAID0 on /dev/md0 via the /etc/init.d/raid2 script
- mount /dev/md0 to /home with the option "usrquota"
- Finally, try to set a quota on a user:
coop:~# file /usr/sbin/setquota
/usr/sbin/setquota: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, AMD x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.4.0, statically linked, not stripped
coop:~# ls -lad ~bviren
drwxr-xr-x 2 bviren users 95 May 7 13:32 /home/bviren
coop:~# grep bviren /etc/passwd
bviren:x:22351:100:Brett Viren:/home/bviren:/bin/bash
coop:~# /usr/sbin/setquota bviren 600 800 15 20 /home
setquota: User bviren doesn't exist.
BTW, "edquota" gives the same error.

Okay, I'll give that a try next.
Thanks for any other hints,
