The problem seems to be related to a hard drive connectivity problem. I shut down my system, and wiggled all the SATA cables connecting the drives to the electronics. They seemed to be firmly connected. But after that, when I rebooted, I could repair the RAID with no problems. Still, mdadm shouldn't be giving a segmentation fault on hard drive connectivity problems. -- hendrik -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
