Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.119
Severity: grave
Justification: causes non-serious data loss
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Upgrading a system from Wheezy to Jessie. The system uses a split /usr
on LVM and uses LABEL in fstab to mount this.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
fstab looks like this:
...
LABEL=usr /usr xfs ...
...
blkid's output looks like this:
...
/dev/mapper/vg00-usr: LABEL="usr" ...
...
* What was the outcome of this action?
Initramfs loops in "Begin: Running /scripts/local-block ... done."
until it gives up and drops to the shell (or panics when panic=xx is given).
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Activate volume group, mount /usr, continue to boot.
Possible workarounds beforehand:
- Changing fstab from "LABEL=usr /usr ..." to "/dev/mapper/vg00-usr /usr ..."
*before* rebooting works around this bug.
(Note that doing the reverse change - at any point after the installation -
would also trigger this bug. Basically, UUID or LABEL must not be used for /usr
when using Jessie with systemd)
Possible workarounds afterwards:
- Running "vgchange -ay; exit" in the initramfs recovery shell allows the boot
to continue
- Using init=/lib/sysvinit/init also works (because then initramfs will not
attempts to mount /usr)
Without those workarounds, which all require console access, the system will be
unable to boot after the upgrade.
I originally added this to Bug #776409, but it looks like a different bug,
after all.
Regards,
Marc
