At the moment, flash-kernel will use /dev/sda2 as root when the root device specified in /etc/fstab doesn't exist. > This time, I didn't close the installer without verifying the > installation logs (yes, it seems I can learn): > > Oct 8 22:17:48 in-target: UUID 2c064f75-5ef4-4390-9993-977a697aca49 doesn't > exist in > /dev/disk/by-uuid > Oct 8 22:17:48 in-target: Warning: /etc/fstab parse error; guessing that the > root device is > /dev/sda2 > > And that's true: only md0's UUID appears in /dev/disk/by-uuid. I've had two similar reports in the meantime. I do all my tests with one RAID device and all failure reports had more than one RAID so I'm wondering if the UUID links in /dev/ are only created for the first RAID device. I'll test this when I get some time. In any case, I'll upload a new flash-kernel package that no longer sets the root device to /dev/sda2 when the specified root device doesn't exist since this seems to do more damage than good. -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-arm-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
