Hi, Sorry for the late answer, I'm not using this email address very often...
You can close this issue, I believe this was more hardware related. I don't remember to encounter this issue since a while and now I'm using a new hardware.

During the installation process I saw an error message like "invalid pointer" or "memory corruption", but the installer continue and ends as if nothing happened. After reboot I couldn't access anymore to the system. Then I plugged in a serial console to see what happened and the system couldn't start because it failed to find the root filesystem. In fact the mdadm tool crashed and randomly the error was one of the following after each reboot: - *** glibc detected *** /sbin/mdadm: munmap_chunk(): invalid pointer: 0x00089c00 *** - *** glibc detected *** /sbin/mdadm: malloc(): memory corruption: 0x0008b660 *** - double free[...] So, are there any news on all this? I don't have an affected hardware and have no idea how it all related to mtdblock devices. Has anything changed since squeeze? Can this bug be reproduced on to-be-jessie? We've a critical bug for several years... Thanks, /mjt
