What happened was: a) wrong order of md so /home got mounted in spite of / (somehow fixed, it seems it was a mdadm problem but I can't reproduce it) b) devices didn't mount but once left into the busybox shell I was able to mount them manually so every time I was drop in busybox ALL the modules needed WERE there I never had the need to modprobe ANY module manually *This exclude it was a module related problem* What I had to do was just mkdir /z; mount /dev/mdN /z or mkdir /z; mount /dev/md/N /z as you may notice device name was different depending on initramfs-tools version > so i really that debug output from an default initramfs > with MODULES=most and the output of the following commands > after your are dropped into shell > ls -l /dev > cat /proc/mdstat > if you trouble are cured in between due to newer mdadm > hooks i'd also be happy to know about. Upgrade to 0.74 didn't solve the problem. Commenting out /etc/udev/rules.d/z60_mdadm.rules partially fixed the problem since I got trapped in another bug http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=383555 I did report to you and cc to bugs.debian.org on 19 Aug. My message didn't reach the list. Since I didn't receive any bounce... (or maybe it got filtered too by anti spam or whatever) I thought at least you received news. If you didn't receive that mail I can resend it to you so you can track down what the cause of the problem really *was*. I just did an update/upgrade and these notable packages got in: busybox udev initramfs-tools I *can* boot with stock kernel and stock initrd. Even 383555 seems fixed. I'd consider the problem solved.
