This would be fixed with Bug #251164 boot impossible due to missing
initramfs failure hook / event driven initramfs
** Description changed:
- My linux system isn't booting anymore.
+ My linux system isn't booting anymore and
+ boot does halt/not drop to busybox anymore
+
My system setup:
4 sata drives which are combined to a raid10 on /dev/md0
Situation:
After one of the later updates of the jaunty 2.6.28-11 kernel my system did
not boot properly anymore. When I disable "quiet splash" in the boot args it
shows to set up the sata drives and md0.
Trying to use the md0 as root it says "md0: Unknown partition table".
Once that's done it prints a "Done." message and then nothing happens (does
not even drop to busybox).
When I hit CTRL+ALT+DEL it says it's stopping the md device.
Even when I tell the kernel to use a non existant root "/dev/efghr" it does
not drop to busybox.
--------------------------------------------
I had also a previous 2.6.28-10 kernel which booted fine. So I figured it had
to be a bug in the kernel so I did a update-initramfs on the 2.6.28-10 kernel
and afterwards I have the same behaviour as with the 2.6.28-11 kernel.
The thing that IMO changed is via update-initramfs a newer version of mdadm
seems to be put in the initramfs which seems to be screwed - that's at least
the only plausible thing I can think of.
** Summary changed:
- Boot does halt/not drop to busybox anymore
+ superblock on md0 confuses boot
