I will try to explain as best as I can. I wanted to install LVM on RAID. I saw that was not possible actually, so I decided to only use RAID. First, I booted, and I deleted all my first partitions. My old partions were somethings like: /dev/hda1 /boot /dev/hda2 swap /dev/hda3 / /dev/hda5 /usr /dev/hda6 /var /dev/hda7 /home /dev/hda8 data /dev/hda9 data Same for hdc. I did not want to delete hd[ac]8 and hd[ac]9, so I deleted everything, but them. Then, I created /dev/hda1 for /boot as primary, /dev/hd[ac]2 for swap, /dev/hd[ac]3 for root. No problem. But when I creaed a logical partition for /usr, it was named /dev/hda7, because partmon decided that hda8 and hda9 were now hda5 and hda6, because they were alone as logical partition. And that the point: because I continued to install the system, it worked, but when I rebooted, the kernel did not autodetect these raid arrays, only md0 (/dev/hd[ac]2). Quite annoying. "cfdisk /dev/hda" or /dev/hdc said that the partition 7 was a bad logical partition because it was overlapping another, something like this. So I rebooted (again), re-ran debian-installer and used cfdisk to partition. cfidk worked perfectly. I used partmon to create MD array on partition made with cfdisk, and everything worked perfectly. By the way, another thing is weird: devfs is used and path in /etc/mdadm/mdadm.conf are in devfs format, so "/etc/init.d/mdadm-raid start" does not work, because kernel-image does not use devfs (at least by default).
