Re: md0 AND md2 RAID not detected anymore



hello joey,

yes, it seems like i'm using udev, dpkg -s udev says installed ok. but in
fact i didn't even know what it was before following your link. but i
stumbled over comments regarding udev and devfs (was it devfs?) on
my search for the solution to this problem. but i don't know if udev was
updated or first-time-installed with my last upgrade because i was using
this root-lvm-raid setup for about 3 month now and aptitudes update list
was quite long.
i can show you an excerpt from my syslog if i don't draw on your patience too much. it shows errors regarding devfs, i don't know if udev and devfs
are related, but i never noticed such a message before.
i have a devfs dir in etc, but believing dpkg, the package is not installed
on my system.

**** / ****

from here on, it checks the other lvm2 volumes which are reiserfs (my
boot partition is just a raid1 ext2, not lvm, the one giving the unable to
read superblock error on which fsck fails later on).

what confuses me is, that my boot partition doesn't get started/mounted,
my root partition does and my home partition again does not. but home is
still accessible (it's lvm2 too).

however, i am able to start and mount my boot raid manually when the
system is up.

so, can you verify that this is the udev bug you mentioned? and if it is,
should i just purge the package and everything would be okay again?

was the kernel upgraded with the same version number because of the
udev module?

best regards,
oliver

mdadm and lvm2, the upgrade updated the kernel, but with the same
version that i
was already using, which is 2.6.10-1-k7. do you hav any ideas, hints,
suggestions?

Are you using udev? See
