Comments/Problems:
The machine is set to install on /dev/md0 raid1.  The installer worked
like a charm, and on reboot into the live system I end up with major
failure, the scripts try to start the raid system with mdrun but I end
up with the error;

"mdadm: cannon open device /dev/hda5: Device or resource busy"

When I attempt to mount /dev/hda1 I end up with the same error.


An installation using guided partition onto hda only succeeds, and the
system boots up fine.

The hardware I have installed is:
- PVR-250 capture card
- Ethernet card
- GForce2 MX
- PATA IDE interface providing hdf/hdg

I was going to try installs without various cards, but considering the
base install works fine, it didn't look like a hardware
conflict/issue.

If you _need_ any of the above, I'll see what I can do, generally
rescue doesnt work for me because it doesnt seem to detect the raid1
and offer that as a 'root' option.

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
  Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
  the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
  D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
  fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful


The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet. 

In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.

You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.

If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.

Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
