Few more informations, I also met this bug on another computer, where both separate / and /usr partitions were on lvm. I didn't have problem beforehand, but the upgrade of initramfs-tools indeed lead to the same problem. Interestingly, it is clear during the boot time that the lvm root partition is correctly mounted, then initramfs waits for /usr, cannot find it and fall back to initramfs prompt. "vgchange -ay" command and exiting this prompt leads to a correct boot process. This time, I only put a "lvm vgchange -ay" line on the lvm2 script, didn't specify any kernel option to grub, and this solved the problem.
So as far as I can observe the problem on my computers: - the problem only occurs for a separate /usr partition on lvm volumes (no problem with / ): initramfs cannot find it - a "lvm vgchange -ay" line on the /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/lvm2 added before the "activate_vg" commands solves the problem (i.e. both / and /usr are correctly found and mounted by initramfs) -- Raphaël -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
