Its seems like as soon as they proccess the --auto|-a they immediately pick the name of the md device, instead of waiting till all of the CLI is proccessed to do this. So if you have the md device defined after the --auto, it will pick the first available, and if you have it defined before --auto, then it uses what you specified.

[CentOS] GDM problems whe using LDAP for user id information
Hi all, I have a CentOS-5 workstation configured to retrieve user id information from LDAP server and password from another kerberos server. If I setup a user entry on /etc/passwd file all works ok, user can logon on GDM and password is verifiyed via kerberos. But If I use LDAP to retrieve user information, GDM doesn't works. On the other side, I can login on console using ldap for user information. GDM returns this error on /var/log/secure: Nov 5 13:45:40 deagol gdm[2484]: pam_unix(gdm:auth): check pass; user unknown Nov 5 13:45:40 deagol gdm[2484]: pam_unix(gdm:auth): authentication failure; logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty=:0 ruser= rhost= Nov 5 13:45:40 deagol gdm[2484]: pam_succeed_if(gdm:auth): error retrieving information about user testuser And on /var/log/messages: Nov 5 13:45:41 deagol gdm[2484]: Couldn't authenticate user All other services that I use with ldap (ssh for example) works ok.
