Bug#576845: initramfs-tools: Forgets to add mdadm and related scripts
Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.94.1
Severity: important
Tags: sid
Last update to initrd.img left the system unbootable due to lack of
sbin/mdadm and scripts/local-top/mdadm (even scripts/local-top/ is
missing), as checked by manual inspection with zcat -d <
/boot/initrd.img-... | cpio -i. Currently I am booting thanks to
initrd backups.
I looked at other bugs and found a suggestion to install lvm2 (I do
not use it, RAID here is plain /dev/md*, but nothing to lose...), then
local-top was added to the initrd, with lvm2 in it, but still no trace
of mdadm.
