The initramfs was created by the kernel postinstall script. I did recreate the kernel image like you suggested. Same result: /dev/md0 not found and the USB keyboard does not work in the shell. I am using the k7 kernel from unstable. You can find the initramfs image at: http://www.kubla.de/temp/initramfs-2.6.14-1-k7 Regards, Dominik -- Verschmilzt die Wirtschaft Europas zur Gemeinschaft, und das wird früher geschehen, als wir denken, so verschmilzt auch die Politik. -- Walter Rathenau (1867-1922)

Bug#336317: initramfs-tools: created initramfs is unable to boot a system with mirrored rootdisks
Package: initramfs-tools Version: 0.37 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system The created initramfs drops into a shell because /dev/md0 can not be mounted. This is a regression from version 0.30. The shell is unusable because USB keyboards are not fully initialized: they are no longer working in PS/2-Emulation mode, but not yet working in USB mode. The system is left in an unusable state. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (900, 'unstable'), (700, 'testing'), (500, 'experimental'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.13-1-k7 Locale: LANG=de_DE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages initramfs-tools depends on: ii busybox 1:1.01-3 Tiny utilities for small and embed ii cpio 2.6-8 GNU cpio -- a program to manage ar ii klibc-utils 1.1.1-2small statically-linked utilities ii mklibs-copy 0.1.18 Shared library reduction script ii udev 0.071-1/dev/ and hotplug management daemo initramfs-tools recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
