[opensuse-kernel] openSUSE 12.1: boot problem: Mount Race when Using Software RAID (md0)
I upgraded an opensuse server from 11.4 to 12.1. the server's boot config includes an externally attached md RAID array for additional storage. Something in the switch to systemd caused the mount to fail -- and I was never able to get the RAID array to attach on boot; doing so manually AFTER boot worked fine. I found this thread, which another community member posted, "openSUSE 12.1: boot problem: Mount Race when Using Software RAID (md0)" http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help-here/install-boot-logi... where similar problems were identified. The 'fix' discussed there -- to boot to init=/sbin/sysvinit instead of systemd -- worked for the OP, and it works for me as well (http://bit.ly/tPkEMP). Before filing it as a bug, it'd be good to get a more detailed idea of the actual problem. Since it looks like a systemd &/or RAID issue, I thought -kernel list would be a good place to explore & discuss. I'd appreciate if someone in the know here could take a look at the forum post, and maybe make a suggestion or ask some leading questions. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner@opensuse.org

It is in the "home" directory of systemd 's maintainer, it will be released as update at some point in the near future. Cheers. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner@opensuse.org
