No newer version are available yet

I do not have devmapper installed, and none is available (my other,
working, feisty install does not have any devmapper either)


It looks like I have another problem: after running udevtrigger, /dev/md0 was 
_not_correctly_ assembled (it was last time). It had been assembled while only 
two disks (out of four) had been detected. After stopping md0 and running 
/scripts/local-top/mdadm, it as back and working.

running lvm by hand seemed to work, but I could still not mount my root 
partition, this time mount complained:
"failed: Invalid argument"

as I could not find /dev/static, I can not compare the majors/minors of 
/dev/mapper/* :/
I had my 3 LVM volumes as (254,[0-2]). After booting on my working install I 
see here 253[0-2] so this might be the problem, right ??

I tried to mount my /boot partition to copy the output files but this
failed as well, and I can only attach the faulty initramfs.

rebuilding the initramfs did not help (it was rebuild due to an update
of usplash, done in a chroot)


I see two problems now:
* /dev/md0 is assembled too early (in 3 boots one worked, one had a single 
device in the RAID volume and one had two devices), see my comment in bug 
#75681.
* I am unable to mount ANYTHING in the initramfs, maybe due to a wrong major 
number ? I guess I can mknode my devices in the initramfs, but I am a little 
worried that the boot will not go well if udev mangles major codes :/
