With 2.6,

should do the trick (assuming root is on /dev/md0.  If it is elsewhere,
choose a different process name).
   

Thanks, this is what I was looking for!

I will try remounting read-only and killing the md0_raid1.
I will keep you informed.

 

Why should this trickery be needed? When an array is mounted r/o it 
should be clean. How can it be dirty. I assume readonly implies noatime, 
I mount physically readonly devices without explicitly saying noatime 
and nothing whines.
