Bug#428399: Followup to #427514
Hi there Maximilian,
I found this bug and I think that it's what's blocking my report
#427514. I guess my 2.6.20 works because its initramfs has been created
with the old version, while the newer kernels don't because of
initramfs-tools = 0.88.
Anyway, I have checked what has been suggested in the thread:
/lib/udev/vol_id -t /dev/md0
and the output was
LVM2_member
To my surprise, since I never had LVM on this machine.
In #427972 it was suggested that it could be the partitioner's fault:
this machine has been partitioned only once at install time, with the
d-i. Should this be reported against d-i or against (I think) parted? It
is potentially very very troublesome...
Anyway, I have tried to blank the sectors of the two partitions member
of /dev/md0 as well as /dev/md0 itself, but with no luck, the output is
still the same and the system does not boot.
Is there any additional idea? It's worth noticing that if I mount
manually the root:
mount -t ext3 /dev/md0 /root
and then exit the initramfs, the system boots just fine. That's why I
think it's the same issue as the one of the OP here.
Thanks again!
