the same here, the new version of casper is not working properly:
there is not only problem with assembling root FS as reported above, but
I am also not able to boot with persistent boot cmd:
reproduce:
-syslinuxed vfat USB stick: /casper/filesystem.squashfs,initrd.gz,vmlinuz
-persistent keyword on cmdline
-boot ends up in busybox
without "persistent" keyword, system boots ok
CAUSE:
initramfs-tools/scripts/casper: find_cow_device() called from
setup_unionfs("/cdrom/casper","/root"), unmounts previously mounted
/cdrom during scanning for casper-rw; /cdrom/casper/filesystem.squashfs
is then not accessible for mount ...
** Patch added: "dirty fix"
