[SOLVED] Software RAID + LVM = Fail to boot

I followed several articles from the arch's wiki over RAID, LVM and RAID with LVM.

Booting with Arch ISO, the RAID looks ok, the LVM is perfect. I can run the CHROOT, install software, execute "mkinitcpio -p linux
" (that read the properly generated /etc/mdadm.conf file) and install syslinux with "/usr/sbin/syslinux-install_update -iam".

syslinux is executed when the computer is turned on and boot "properly" the system. But fails when fsck tries to check /dev/sda3 that is a "linux_raid_member".

From the rescue shell I can view the array settings /dev/md0 (lvm), /dev/md1 (swap) and /dev/md2 (boot).

What can I do? This is my first adventure with these tecnologies.

Here the error: Image here!

Thanks!

Please paste your mkinitcpio.conf and your syslinux config

Not a Sysadmin issue, moving to NC...

Maybe installation?

btw, the solutions was change the APPEND entry in syslinux.conf
