Well you found the same bug I found doing it that way. Remove udev. file a bug against kernel-source-2.6.8-1. Ask the Debian Kernel Team. As far as the bug, here it is and read Marco's response and re-assign to the kernel. http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=273182 > well what do i do to make it appear each boot? or perhaps, once i > create the initrd with raid5 module in it, then it will appear without my > doing mknod /dev/md0 each time, or do i need a script in /etc/rcS.d > or /etc/rc2.d to do > mknod /dev/md0 b 9 0 > each reboot? > any ideas? > mknod /dev/md0 Oh, yes my child... all you haav to do is remove udev for the time being or recompile a kernel with raid* compiled in statically. -- greg, [EMAIL PROTECTED] The technology that is Stronger, better, faster: Linux
