 |
|
OK, first of all, this is before (just a few lines) the Gentoo initscripts start, so I strongly doubt that it's a config file problem.
ReiserFS (3.6), sata-nv (my SATA controller) and md (with RAID0 support) are all built in to my kernel statically. During bootup, I can see that sata-nv works, that the md driver gets loaded, and that the raid0 profile gets loaded.
Then I see that md starts looking for arrays to autodetect and start automagically... Then I see: | Code: | | md: ... autorun done. |
with no arrays being found. Because /dev/md0 is my root device, the kernel can not continue booting.
The array was created using
| Code: | | mdadm -C /dev/md0 -l0 -n2 /dev/sda5 /dev/sdb5 |

What does your "fdisk -l" look like ?
hint : look for partition type "fd" |
