Hi all

最近mdadm有更新,更新信息里面写道,
It is recommended that users remake their initramfs images they boot
from after installing this update and then reboot their machine to
verify that the new mdadm package does not prevent proper booting of
their computer. For safety sake, it's possible to create a totally new
initramfs, modify your boot loader configuration to add a test boot
instance that uses the new initramfs image as the initrd, and then boot
to that test image before updating their known working initramfs images.
This update brings mdadm to the latest upstream git repo plus a number
of specific bug fixes. It addresses far more issues than the short bug
list here depicts.
In order to fully test this update, users need to not only install the
package, but also rebuild their initramfs images using dracut and then
reboot their machine to test that the newly generated initramfs images
still work properly on reboot (this obviously only applies to systems
that have their root partition on an md handled raid device). This
update brings mdadm to the latest upstream git repo plus a number of
specific bug fixes. It addresses far more issues than the short bug list
here depicts.

我还没有尝试过remake initramfs,不知是否有风险。
另外,mdadm是不是raid相关的软件。我不用raid是不是可以不去更新mdadm,
甚至可以删除相关软件?
