you dont describe your raid at all. do you have one ? what is your config file look like ? what if you use the verbose flag ? mdadm-3.0 works just fine on my stable system.

Re-opening. LMK if there's anything else I can provide to help. Thanks!
I've also got this problem. mdadm devices are all ok, just get the "[!!]" at boot time :-(
The same here. mdadm devices are all ok, just get the "[!!]" at boot time. This has started happening after I upgraded the kernel, which has setting to "Autodetect RAID arrays during kernel boot".
This is a 'me too'. I experience the same problem using sys-fs/mdadm-3.0 # uname -a Linux wwwood2 2.6.32-gentoo-r7 #1 SMP Mon Apr 26 17:13:15 CEST 2010 x86_64 AMD Athlon(tm) Dual Core Processor 4850e AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux The RAID devices appear okay. System is running fine. Just getting the [!!] during startup of the RAID devices.

Otherwise, all the raid devices seems to work fine at runtime.
I too have this problem, but would like to propose a solution. I am building a system with 3 x RAID 1 and 1 x RAID 5 arrays. All have 0.9 superblocks and all are autodetected by the kernel. Hence, none need to be built using the /lib/rcscripts/addons/raid-start.sh script. So why not suppress the script by removing "raid" from the list of augments assigned to RC_VOLUME_ORDER variable in /etc/conf.d/rc. I have done this and it stops this error: * Starting up RAID devices ... [ !! ] It also suppresses another error which I encounter when my system shuts down. This error reads: mdadm: fail to stop array /dev/md0: Device or resource busy md0 is my root partition This error occurs when the machine is rebooted or halted and is emanating from the /lib/rcscripts/addons/raid-stop.sh script If you refer to comment #11 of bug report 119380, it seems Neil Brown (the mdadm main developer) believes that it not necessary to shutdown RAIDs during reboot or halt. I would be interested on other people views on this approach to solving this problem. Many thanks, theDuck
(In reply to comment #8) > I would be interested on other people views on this approach to solving this > problem. On my system I also use the kernel autodetect functionality to detect my raid1 to yield /, but works only from 0.90 and 1.0 metadata, not newer so people with large arrays need something for the startup. I would be close the say that I agree to drop these scripts but that is not possible. But, the scripts could grep through /proc/config.gz or /etc/mdadm.conf and not fiddle with those arrays which have the < 1.1 metadata or if the kernel feature is available. If the file(s) does not exist, keep current behavior. I think the culprit on shutdown is that files (probably the pid files of running processes) are opened on / while the script is started. In my case on several machines, I have md0 which is /boot and md1 which is the root filesystem. I think that md0 is shutdown first while md1 after, which should be correct for my layout, but could be an issue for others. Nevertheless, I see these messages on start and stop everywhere where I use raid.

I found a root of problem in my case - It's udev. I disable mdraid service, and have # CONFIG_MD_AUTODETECT is not set, but cat /proc/mdstat shows me properly configured raid array. So I find 'mdadm' string in /lib, and it was found in /lib/udev/rules.d/64-md-raid.rules. I've deleted this file, add mdraid service to boot runlevel, and now there is no error on boot
More precisely, conflict with mdraid is in these lines: ENV{ID_FS_TYPE}=="linux_raid_member", ACTION=="remove", RUN+="/sbin/mdadm -If $name" ENV{ID_FS_TYPE}=="linux_raid_member", ACTION=="add", RUN+="/sbin/mdadm --incremental $env{DEVNAME}"
Confirming comment #11 and comment #12. I commented the two lines in /lib/udev/rules.d/64-md-raid.rules, and, with mdraid on boot runlevel, the error is gone.
Can you please all retest with newer mdadm? raid-start.sh is long gone.
(In reply to comment #14) > Can you please all retest with newer mdadm? raid-start.sh is long gone. Please define 'newer'. I just did a fresh stable amd64 gentoo installation with some RAID1 arrays, mdadm-3.1.4 here, and the problem is still there. Comment #13 is still valid.
Same error occurs here. Fresh amd64 install, mdadm-3.1.4 and sys-fs/udev-171-r6.
On a stable system I recently upgraded to mdadm-3.2.6-r1, and the mdraid init script fails to start correctly : > * Starting up RAID devices ... [ !! ] But RAID arrays are mounted.
For me the problem was solved by removing lvm and mdraid from the boot runlevel. These services are obviously not necessary if raid/lvm are assembled by genkernel's initrd although they are recommended by this popular howto: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/de/gentoo-x86+raid+lvm2-quickinstall.xml

Can someone please reopen this bug ? Thanks.
