Question generating grub.cfg - error: mdadm: Unknown keyword ;


Hi,

I have raid0 and when generate grub.cfg by update-grub I have got:
mdadm: Unknown keyword ;
mdadm: Unknown keyword ;
mdadm: Unknown keyword ;
...
...

many times it is repeating but grub.cfg is finally generated.

What could be the problem to obtain this message ?
where should I look into to find it ?

thank you,
kind regards,
M.

It has to do with mdadm driver reading the metadata on your drives and finding a keyword that it does not recoginize and is not set in the conf file.

I see these often and I ignore them, I just verify my config files for grub or whatever I'm working with are setup correctly.
