severity 378344 grave # Upping severity, since this bug makes a PReP d-i install not being able to # boot in the resulting system. Furthermore, this is a general regression from # sarge and initrd-tools. Thanks
Max, ... When playing with initramfs-tools Motorola Powerstack PReP box, i noticed that the machine didn't find the root device on reboot. I had chosen a LVM setup, not sure if this influence the issue. I had to give the root=/dev/powerstack/root argument by hand on the kernel command line, which is less than optimal. I booted into the system, and added ROOT=/dev/powerstack/root, but it would be nice if this was autodetected, as it is done in both yaird and initrd-tools. Furthermore, it would be nice if the ROOT= option would be documented, and an empty entry would be present in the default config file, like the other options. Does ROOT=probe also work in initramfs-tools, like it did for initrd-tools ? Friendly, Sven Luther -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
