I extracted the initrd file and looked at the file "init".  in this file
I can see the following (relevant) information..

echo Creating block device nodes.
mkblkdevs
echo "loading raid1 module"
modprobe -q raid1

 some other modules look like USB related

echo "Loading ext3 module"
modprobe -q raid456
echo "Loading scsi_mod module"
modprobe -q scsi_mod
echo "Loading sd_mod module"
modprobe -q sd_mod

the libata and ahci modules are next

echo Waiting for driver initialization.  <-last thing I see before it fails!
stabilized --hash --interval 250 /proc/scsi/scsi
modprobe scsi_wait_scan
rmmod scsi_wait_scan
mkblkdevs
mdadm -As --auto=yes --run /dev/md3
mdadm -As --auto=yes --run /dev/md6
resume /dev/md3


it appears as the mdadm is not starting properly or assembling the array
properly.  Can anybody confirm if the init file appears correct?  I
tried modifying the mdadm line to remove the /dev/md3 (and 6) and it
tried to assemble all the volumes but said that /dev/mdX (listed all
my array volums) didn't exist with "mdadm: no devices found for /dev/md..."


Thanks, Jeff
