Package: multipath-tools Version: 0.4.8-15.1 Severity: important My Squeeze system booted fine last time (85 days ago). Today, after a system upgrade, it was unable to mount at boot time the /home partition from a multipath fiber channel (QLogic ISP2532).
At /etc/rcS.d/S10mountall.sh time, the multipath was not started. I have "auto" as fsystem type in /etc/fstab, so the boot process continues. At boot end the multipath is started, but the partition is not mounted. I found a /etc/rcS.d/S14multipath-tools-boot, don't know if the boot order was re-arranged by insserv. I moved the script to /etc/rcS.d/S08multipath-tools-boot and now the system boots nicely. I don't have the multipath-tools-boot package installed, should I? The /home partition is the only one on multipath. The upgrade involved - among many others - the following packages: sysvinit 2.87dsf-8 2.87dsf-10 sysvinit-utils 2.87dsf-8 2.87dsf-10 sysv-rc 2.87dsf-8 2.87dsf-10 initscripts 2.87dsf-8 2.87dsf-10 dmsetup 2:1.02.39-1 2:1.02.45-1 module-init-tools 3.11-1 3.12~pre2-1 udev 150-2 151-3 -- Package-specific info: /etc/multipath.conf does not exist. -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.30-2-686 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages multipath-tools depends on: ii initscripts 2.87dsf-10 scripts for initializing and shutt ii kpartx 0.4.8-15.1 create device mappings for partiti ii libaio1 0.3.107-7 Linux kernel AIO access library - ii libc6 2.10.2-6 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libdevmapper1.02.1 2:1.02.45-1 The Linux Kernel Device Mapper use ii libncurses5 5.7+20100313-2 shared libraries for terminal hand ii libreadline5 5.2-7 GNU readline and history libraries ii lsb-base 3.2-23 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii udev 151-3 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo multipath-tools recommends no packages.
