@jtm-moon-forum-user+launchpad So in my case, the problem is a missing device node. Not just anyone, but the one that is given to the kernel with the command line parameter "root=...". This is needed quite early during boot. That is why I inject "break", which means "break=premount", which is even earlier. This gives me the opportunity to create the missing device node by calling "udevadm trigger --action=add". The mentioned "ls /dev/mapper" is just a (very short) explanation to show that this call was successful, the device node is indeed there now.
If you want to have a closer look into the initramfs stuff: This looks like a race condition because this "udevadm trigger --action=add" was already called from /initramfs-tools/scripts/init-top/udev. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1335642 Title: mdadm runs into infinite loop and prevents initrd/initramfs phase to finish on boot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mdadm/+bug/1335642/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
