Hi,

I am a new arch user and this is my first post on this list, so welcome everyone :-)

29th I upgraded my system using pacman -Syu and after that my system does not boot.

The problem is that I have root partition on software raid1 and for some reason scripts from initramfs are not able to create /dev/md device and mount it on /new_root.

I am using mdadm hook.

Have you tried using the mdadm_udev hook? I think this is the better way to go. In my experience in the past, it was certainly the faster more reliable hook. -- Curtis Shimamoto sugar.and.scruffy [at] gmail.com
