Yes, when using live-initramfs 1.130.1-2 (without any grml patches)
I notice that the squashfs kernel module is missing in the
initramfs.
The kernel module is present in the chroot:
/lib/modules/2.6.23-grml/kernel/fs/squashfs/squashfs.ko
but it's not present in the initramfs, even though I see:
# grep -r 'manual_add_modules squashfs' /usr/share/initramfs-tools
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/live:manual_add_modules squashfs
Running manual_add_modules() of
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions in debugging mode (using
'set -x') it does not give me a single line mentioning squashfs.
When running /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/live in debugging mode
as well I see:
cp: `/lib/libdevmapper.so.1.02.1' and
`/tmp/mkinitramfs_f26814/lib/libdevmapper.so.1.02.1' are the same file
The reason why the 'set -e' of the hooks/live-script is being
triggered when executing the code is:
for hidden_klibc_dep_library in libacl libblkid libuuid libdevmapper libattr
do
cp -a /lib/${hidden_klibc_dep_library}.so.* "${DESTDIR}"/lib
done
Because of the /lib/libdevmapper.so.1.02.1 error the initramfs isn't
"ready to go" for live-setup. When running
/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/live without 'set -e' it works
again. AFAICS that's the trigger of my problem, because booting with
the "workaround" initramfs works again (seeing "mount: you must
specify the filesystem type" during initramfs sequence three times,
not sure whether that's relevant though).
The software packages being involved in the live-initramfs setup:
ii busybox 1:1.9.2-3 Tiny utilities for small
and embedded systems
ii cryptsetup 2:1.0.6-1 configures encrypted block
devices
ii dmraid 1.0.0.rc13-2.1 Device-Mapper Software RAID
support tool
ii initramfs-tools 0.92 tools for generating an
initramfs
ii klibc-utils 1.5.9-2 small utilities built with
klibc for early boot
ii libdevmapper1.02.1 2:1.02.24-4 The Linux Kernel Device
Mapper userspace library
ii live-initramfs 1.130.1-2 Debian Live initramfs hook
ii lvm2 2.02.33-2 The Linux Logical Volume
Manager
ii mdadm 2.6.4-1 tool to administer Linux MD
arrays (software RAID)
ii udev 0.114-2 /dev/ and hotplug
management daemon
