Hi,
Thank $DEITY for testers. We discovered another issue when root is
on LVM is on RAID. If that's your setup, please hold off on using
mdadm 2.5 until I managed to fix #375879. Sorry for the
inconvenience, and again, thanks to Alec Berryman for his help. He
also spotted the last issue.

Both sides in this discussion seem to have valid concerns:
FOR making --wildcard the default
- compatibility with upstream
- compatibility with standards
- compatibility with other distributions
- whatever reasons POSIX had for this were probably sensible
- upstream's judgement on

Hi again,
I am sorry, but there is a stupid, minor glitch in the
README.experimental file, which may lead to an unbootable system
with initramfs-tools << 0.65.
The cause of the problem is the sed call:
