I have a newish high-end machine here that's causing me some problems
with RAID, but looking at log files and dmesg I don't think the
problem is actually RAID and more likely udev. I'm looking for some
ideas on how to debug this.
The hardware:
Asus Rampage II Extreme
Intel Core i7-980x
12GB DRAM
5 WD5002ABYS RAID Edition 500GB drives
I had an asus mobo that turned out to be great in the long run, but a few
of its newer hardware gadgets took months to be well-supported by linux.
I'm thinking (completely guessing :) it sounds like a driver that's not
setting some bit properly in a hardware register during boot.
That turned out to be a problem with the network chip on my asus, which
randomly didn't work after reboots. Finally the driver got fixed after
I whined a thousand times to the driver maintainer at Broadcom :)
