This: [ 11.550355] md: could not open unknown-block(8,20). [ 11.550455] md: md_import_device returned -16 [ 11.550766] md: could not open unknown-block(8,20). [ 11.550857] md: md_import_device returned -16 should have alerted me to that. It suggests that 'mdadm' found /dev/sdb4, but by the time that the 'md' kernel driver tried to open it, it has disappeared. Other error message seem to confirm that. The drives seem to work fine once boot has completed, but maybe when it is all booting and trying to identify all the devices, some race or something is causing some confusion. Unfortunately I cannot help with the nv SATA driver. So I'm reassigning to "default assignee". It should probably be reassigned to someone who knows about SATA drivers or libata or something like that. -- 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.
