reopen 431291 stop I can reproduce the problem again. :( The system hangs at "Begin: Waiting for root file system... ...". when booting using root=UUID=... whereas it works fine using root=/dev/... syntax. No use of mdadm, lvm2,... (though the tools are installed), but really nothing complex involved...
The problem does *not* exist with initramfs-tools 0.87b whereas it does not work with 0.90a and 0.91a - verified with always the same setup and software, just switched the initramfs-tools version between the single tests. $ROOT is set correct (I added debug output to the scripts), but /dev/disk/* just does not exist even though /dev is udev's tmpfs - that's why it is hanging with "Waiting for root...". There weren't any changes in the udev setup and I can reproduce the problem between different versions of initramfs-tools without touching anything else - so I assume this seems to be a problem of a new toolchain mechanism anywhere in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/.... Any pointers what I could do, maks? What do you think might be the relevant changes where I could start debugging this problem? regards, -mika-
