Subject: RAID autodetection not working when booting with initramfs
Date: Mon, 30 Jan 2006 01:13:48 +0200 (EET) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0601300103110.2016@tassadar.physics.auth.gr> (raw)
Hi ,
I am building a diskless system with 2.6.15.1 kernel. Eveyrthing is built
in the kernel ( no modules). It is booting with the help of pxelinux and
then proceeds to nfsmount its root filesystem etc.The system has a raid1
array on two scsi disks.
Recently I added an initramfs image to the boot procedure (append
initrd=initramfs.img) for some tests. Since then the raid array is not
autodetected (with identical kernel). If I remove the initramfs line and
reboot , the array is autodetected. When I am using initramfs I can
manually activate it using mdadm.
Is this by design or something is wrong ?
TIA,
--
