[OSR-devel] MD Software RAID

[Gordan B. <go...@bo...>]

It would appear that OSR doesn't start up MD software RAID arrays.

Well, now it does. Patches attached. :)

It fires up any MD arrays that can be assembled right after the DM 
arrays. I'm not sure if this should be made optional (only do it if 
mdadm is present, which will only be the case of the mdadm.list files 
are added to the initrd. Any thoughts on this?

On an unrelated note, mkinitrd seems to put all the .pyc and .pyo files 
into the initrd. I only found this out because I wiped them while 
troubleshooting the cdslDefaults_element issue, since it complains those 
files are not there. Are these really necessary? I would have thought 
those non-essential, and anything making the initrd smaller is probably 
a good thing... Speaking of which, did my mkinitrd -l parameter optional 
"diet" kernel module patch ever make it into the trunk?

Thanks.
