SubjectRe: Drives missing at boot
Hey Tejun: I guess this is the same patch that you sent me to fix my issue
with missing drives. Good news: I've been through about 10 reboots now
and no problems. Based on my prior experience, I'd say with the old
setup, 10 clean boots in a row was probably less than a 1% event. So, it
seems that this has fixed my problem.

Thanks!

Regards, Paul
