I've have a headless server set up and sharing an external RAID array for several years now. I do occasional manual updates, first with pacman and more recently with yay.
After what seemed like a successful software upgrade recently, I'm now getting stuck during boot, when it tries to mount the RAID. I get a timeout message:
"[TIME] Timed out waiting for device /dev/[UUID of RAID]"
...after logging into maintenance mode, and removing the RAID from fstab, the system boots up normally.
From there, I can login as a normal user, mount the RAID manually (i.e. "sudo mount /dev/md0 [mountpoint]"), and then everything works fine. I can still access shared files on the RAID from other machines; services that interact with the RAID work fine; etc..
But if I add the RAID back into fstab -- using either the UUID or the name (/dev/md0) -- it breaks booting again, with the same timeout message.
Any help getting back to what I had, where the RAID mounts automatically during bootup/login, is hugely appreciated!
