There was an error generating the initrd (1) The previous line looked like this echo -e "${md_conf["$md"]}" >> $tmp_mnt/etc/mdadm.conf it generated this in the initrd mdadm.conf AUTO -all ARRAY /dev/md/imsm0 metadata=imsm UUID=93fb0f57:f21188ff:51e6f81e:3890f066 ARRAY /dev/md/system container=/dev/md/imsm0 member=0 UUID=94bbd8df:9bce432a:fa157cde:798e8240 copying and pasting the line mentioned above only had "AUTO -all" in the initrd's mdadm.conf. I've rebooted successfully with the initrd created from the mdadm-3.2.5-3.17.1.x86_64 code. It also turns out the grub error was another issue (likely from the couple of mkinitrd attempts) as grub failed to load after the reboot. I've had to boot to a rescue environment and force a grub2-install to recover that part too. To summarise updated mdadm to 3.2.5-3.17.1 checked initrd, looked ok applied suggested patch ran mkinitrd checked initrd, looked empty reverted patch ran mkinitrd checked initrd, looked ok rebooted grub failed booted to rescue environment reinstalled grub (grub2-install /dev/md... --force) rebooted successfully logged in. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
