Bug#517473: linux-image-2.6.28-1-686 fails to boot, no /dev/md0, no /dev/sd*
Package: linux-image-2.6.28-1-686
Version: 2.6.28-1
Severity: important
New 2.6.28 fails to boot as it finds no md0 (for root dev). mdadm
complains it is unable to assemble it. With the provided shell it is
clear sd[ab]* devices are missing at the point of boot sequence.
OTOH, /sys/bus/scsi/ shows the SCSI controller (aic79xx) and the two
disks. mdadm.conf in the initrd.img has the /dev/ paths and UUIDs to
identify the md devices, fstab uses /dev/md0 though. 2.6.26 boots
fine.
