Bug#526525: Kernel linux-image-2.6.26-2-amd64 does not see root RAID device /dev/md0

[Tony Godshall <togo@of.net>]

Package: linux-image-2.6.26-2-amd64
Version: 2.6.26-15
Severity: important



Kernel from linux-image-2.6.26-2-amd64 does not see
root RAID device /dev/md0 so boot sequence drops
busybox shell.  2.6.26-2-686-bigmem and 2.6.26-2-686
work properly.

This is after an install with no issues from the std
32-bit install iso image.

Machine is a Dell T610 server with 8 GB RAM and
8 cores (two four-core Xeons, I think)
