I just noticed that with slowly-appearing drives (with md devices on it) the md device will not exist on the regular run of init-premount/mdadm. But since introducing another waiting loop into the coldplug driven boot does not make much sence it'll be preferable to just do degration with failure hooks after a full rootdelay.
That means that with a degraded md array two wainting loops will have to time out. (the one in local-top/cryptroot and the rootwait in local) But this is now an issue of local and local-top/cryptroot. So the remaining list for package mdadm is down to the array degration of md devices on which the fstab depends in /etc/init.d/mdadm. BTW /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/cryptroot contains code to determine cryptdevices that the rootdevice depends on. Similar approach may work to find md devices the rootdevice depends on. It may help to identify the particular arrays to degrade and solve this bug in a way that does not introduce new problems. -- cannot boot raid1 with only one disk https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/120375 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
