I guess mdadm is a pretty critical component :-), but do I really need to rename the binary to prevent it being started?
Maybe blacklist it out of initrd to keep it from loading. Locking it out should allow use of a RAID mirror disk as a regular disk, in case you ever need that. :-p
It's not in the initrd, it's simply part of the system that was installed.
If mkinitrd made your initrd you might try a switch to dracut, which I hear defaults to a hostonly option that leaves unneeded components out.
Not related here, but dracut doesn't default to hostonly, and it doesn't seem to support network booting and iscsi. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (15.2°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - dedicated server rental in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
