Description Bardur Arantsson 2003-01-17 17:58:58 UTC

Hi there, 
 
(Sorry if this bug has been reported before. I tried searching a bit, but find any bugs for this 
exact issue). 
 
In /etc/init.d/checkfs, an incorrect device name is given to the raidstart command. 
 
The line that reads 
 
	/sbin/raidstart /dev/${x} 
 
should read: 
 
	/sbin/raidstart ${x} 
 
(or perhaps should use a bit of bash magic to prepend /dev/ *unless already present*). 
 
This causes problems (at least) when some md devices are started from the kernel command 
line (e.g. when using an md device as the root device) and some devices are not (e.g. /home).

It has.  What version of baselayout ?  I redid raid totally in 1.8.6.2 if you
just want to test the checkfs script from there with your current setup .. testing
would be appreciated.

I have tried the checkfs script from baselayout-1.8.6.2 and it seems to work fine. 
Thanks.
