as told you several times, live-initramfs just *does* *not* *care* about
extended partitions, as they have no filesystem and thus are not looped
over.

in order to help you with your problem (which i guess is the well-known
#565456), you need to give the full partition list, including the used
filesystems.

why this?

this is wrong, rw is included in $opts here.

this looks wrong too, to avoid panic you have to fix it earlier already,
not here. if you cannot bind mount, then there's something wrong.

same as above with $opts.

why?

certainly too intrusive.
