Mdutils boot problem
Hi all,
I seem to have a mis-configured mdutils package (version 0.35-14
running on an up-to-date hamm system) and hope someone can help.
I have a single entry in /etc/mdtab created by mdcreate:
/dev/md0 linear,4k,0,8fd9453a /dev/hdb1 /dev/hdc1 /dev/hdc2 /dev/hdc3 /dev/hdc5 /dev/hdc6
and an entry in /dev/fstab:
/dev/md0 /share1 ext2 defaults 1 0
During boot-up the system complains that it can't fsck /dev/md0 and
asks for a root-password to fix the problem manually. What seems to
be happening is that mdadd and mdrun are executed, but not in time for
the mount step. This may be related to a dangling symlink in /etc/rsS.d:
S05keymaps.sh -> /etc/init.d/kbd-boot.sh
S10checkroot.sh -> ../init.d/checkroot.sh
S20modutils -> ../init.d/modutils
-> S25mdutils.sh -> ../init.d/mdutils.sh
S30checkfs.sh -> ../init.d/checkfs.sh
S35mountall.sh -> ../init.d/mountall.sh
S40hostname.sh -> ../init.d/hostname.sh
S40network -> ../init.d/network
S45mountnfs.sh -> ../init.d/mountnfs.sh
S50hwclock.sh -> ../init.d/hwclock.sh
-> S50raid -> ../init.d/mdutils
S55bootmisc.sh -> ../init.d/bootmisc.sh
S55urandom -> ../init.d/urandom
I don't have a /etc/init.d/mdutils.sh:
root@galaxy:/# ls /etc/init.d
README kbd-boot.sh netstd_misc sysklogd
apache kerneld netstd_nfs umountfs
atd logoutd network urandom
boot.OLD lpd rc urandom.dpkg-old
bootmisc.sh mdutils rcS xdm
checkfs.sh modules reboot xdm.dpkg-old
checkroot.sh modutils rmnologin xfs
cron mountall.sh sendsigs xntp3
functions mountnfs.sh single xntp3.dpkg-dist
halt netatalk skeleton
hostname.sh netbase smail
hwclock.sh netstd_init ssh
Should I change S25mdutils to point to /etc/init.d/mdutils and remove
the S50raid entry? Is this a bug in the package, or something wierd
with my setup?
Thanks!
