Until you can show some, I regard this bug > as release-critical. we had a short exchange about it, i don't remember any conclusion. regarding the severity i may cite yourself #353809 -- snipp "Nothing in this report has described actual breakage. If using initramfs-tools to generate initramfs images prevents the system from booting, that is indeed a critical bug, but that's not the bug that Jonas filed." -- by design initramfs-tools needs that: a) allows each hook to add it's boot device detection scripts if you want evms root you simply install evms. thanks to it's initramfs hook you get evms root support. b) prevents races in install order: mkinitramfs-kpkg run by newer linux-image when not _all_ hooks are yet unpacked, so latest updated initramfs has all content. thus _only_ latest initramfs gets updated. c) allows moving around root currently due to lvm2+mdadm not having yet the initramfs-tools hooks the user does have to regenerate the initramfs when moving to lvm2 root. as the initramfs was generated before lvm2 installed. regards -- maks ps added jbailey on cc as i may have forgot details about his implementation thoughts. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
