Package: initramfs-tools Version: 0.83 Severity: important Tags: patch
Booting via disk-labels when your root-label is on a md device, results in the system hanging at "Waiting for root file system..." untill it times out. At this point there are no /dev/disk/by-label enteries for the md devices, and running a udevtrigger will populate it. Ive attached my quick fix to te problem.
