Bug#434138: bug 434138

[Eric Lauriault]

Hi Martin,

I understand this is an ugly solution but it's the only one I have found 
yet. I only have problems with it when using it in conjunction with a 
sparc64-smp kernel with scsi drivers. Same os, setup and package version 
on 686-smp: no problems at all. I don't think it's a problem with the 
package so much as  it is a race condition between the initialization of 
the disks by the kernel drivers and the assembly attempt of the array by 
the script. Could there be a nicer way to check if the devices in 
/etc/mdadm.conf have be initialized before trying to proceed with the 
array assembly?
