I never had mdadm running in boot runlevel and I don't have a modular kernel. I have compiled everything into the kernel and hence no initrd either as I said earlier. Raid autodetection seems to work even _without_ mdadm running. ------------------------------ [ 1.202481] md: Waiting for all devices to be available before autodetect [ 1.204268] md: If you don't use raid, use raid=noautodetect [ 1.206201] md: Autodetecting RAID arrays.
