Meep. I have done some major work on mdadm in experimental, which is now at version 2.5.2-1. I still have not received enough success reports to make me comfortable enough to upload to unstable, so here's another request for testing (or else etch will ship with 2.4.1).
I am 95% confident that it's a smooth upgrade, though it helps if you make sure that the output of the script /usr/share/mdadm/mkconf looks okay before you reboot. Come and find me on IRC if you need reconfirmation (see below). Previously, mdadm required a newer version of initramfs-tools, one which did not exist yet. I have addressed this issue with this version, meaning that you can install it with *any* initramfs-tools out there, and it will just do what it can do. Details are in http://madduck.net/~madduck/scratch/mdadm.README.experimental, which is a little more up to date than the included /usr/share/doc/mdadm/README.experimental . Please test mdadm 2.5.2-1 and drop me a line if it works, or if it does not! The package is in experimental or available here: http://debian.madduck.net/repo/dists/experimental/main/binary-i386/admin/ http://debian.madduck.net/repo/dists/experimental/main/binary-amd64/admin/ Again, do not hesitate to bug me on IRC (#debian-devel/irc.debian.org) if you have questions or need assistance. Thanks, -- Please do not send copies of list mail to me; I read the list! .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' : proud Debian developer and author: http://debiansystem.info `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system "the vast majority of our imports come from outside the country." - george w. bush
