** Description changed: Hi, I have installed Feisty (alternate CD). I created an md0 device (raid1). I was surprised that there is still not something like a progress bar for the resync of the partitions of my previously created md0 device. In case of a small partition it doesn't matter so much, but in case of a 300 Gb one could run into trouble after a reboot. Maybe it would be a nice idea to regard the resync of md devices during installation. ;o) Then I have created a volume group for LVM. When I told the installer to create that logical volume I got a blue screen and the installer seemed to hang. On another console I have made this screenshot: - http://www.asapos.de/transfer/IMG_0131.JPG + http://www.asapos.de/pub/feisty/root-on-lvm-on-raid/IMG_0131.JPG There you see that it hangs for three upto four minutes. After that you get an error message: partman-lvm: Rendezvous with udev timed out for 'vgsys-root'; stat failed: No such file or directory partman-lvm: Logical volume "root" created As you can see in the screenshot this keeps on going for all my logical volumes. At the end I was able to boot cleanly into my system with lilo. But now I want to test the raid functionality. At first disconnected the second SATA drive. And started my PC again. - The system hangs up for several minutes: - http://www.asapos.de/transfer/IMG_0140.JPG + The system hangs up for several minutes: http://www.asapos.de/pub/feisty + /root-on-lvm-on-raid/IMG_0140.JPG After a while I got dropped into the busybox: - http://www.asapos.de/transfer/IMG_0141.JPG + http://www.asapos.de/pub/feisty/root-on-lvm-on-raid/IMG_0141.JPG With "mdadm --assemble --scan" I could reactivate my md device: - http://www.asapos.de/transfer/IMG_0142.JPG + http://www.asapos.de/pub/feisty/root-on-lvm-on-raid/IMG_0142.JPG and by pressing CTRL-D I could reboot into my system. At least I found my self in a full functioning system. I turned the machine off and connected the other drive again. Started it up and I did a resync of my md0 device. The next test is to disconnect the first drive of my two SATA disks.

In the middle of the bootprocess it got completely stuck and I wasn't - dropped into a busybox: http://www.asapos.de/transfer/IMG_0145.JPG + dropped into a busybox: http://www.asapos.de/pub/feisty/root-on-lvm-on- + raid/IMG_0145.JPG I turned the PC off again and booted up completely and I could do my resync again. Normally one should not be dropped into the busybox only because of a drive failure of one md device. If you guys need any further information or testing let me know. This problem is reproducible... Thanks a lot for any hint...
