Summary: Root on software raid don't boot on new 2.5 kernel since
after 2.5.45
Kernel Version: 2.5.65
Status: NEW
Severity: high
Owner: bugme-janitors@lists.osdl.org
Submitter: tlb@rapanden.dk
Distribution:
Linux Mandrake 9.0 (std kernel 2.4.21-pre1)
Hardware Environment:
ASUS A7M266-D ACPI BIOS Revision 1006
Promise 20268 PCI IDE Controler
Intel Ethernet Pro 100
ATI Radeon QD
Problem Description:
The software raid setup I have boots on 2.4 but not on newer 2.5 kernels, i
have everything need compiled in and the 2.5 kernel also rapports that it has
found /dev/md2 but it rapports that is's unable to mount the root partition for
this device. I have tried to pass /dev/md0 as the root but this hangs the
kernel, is root on raid broaken in kernel 2.5 or am I doing something wrong?
