Details

mdadm 3.2.1-4 has got broken hook for initcpio.
Problem occures when you move / to software raid. Result: udev is unable to assemble an array and booting ends with something like:

udevd[21476]: failed to execute '/sbin/mdadm' '/sbin/mdadm --examine --export /dev/sdb': No such file or directory

It looks like you've messed two hooks: mdadm for assembling arrays with /sbin/mdassemble and mdadm_udev for assembling arrays with udev and /sbin/mdadm.

Udev needs to have /sbin/mdadm but it's missing in initcpio image. Instead of it, there is /sbin/mdassemble.


I've created two patches which fixed it and made my system bootable.

It is still wrong with latest systemd?

I've got no opportunity to check that. I'm no longer a Chakra user.
