The '/script' script in the initrd image generated by mkinitrd contains
a line initializing the VG's when the root fs is on LVM, using the
vgchange command. The problem is that it initializes all VG's, which in
my case fails because one of them depends on a feature not initialized
at this point (my root fs is on a VG on top of a software raid1, and
I have another VG on top of a software raid0, and the raid0 module is
not loaded).
In any event, only the VG containing the root fs should be initialized
at this point, the other ones being taken care by the real system
initialization.
My suggested patch, which corrected the problem for me:
