Once again booting from RAID is broken.
There were similar bugs in Jaunty, Karmic, and Lucid.
I don't recall encountering this error in Natty.
It was definetly not present in Oneiric.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Upgrade to Precise (fresh install not tested, but likely has the same problem)
2. Reboot
3. Observe failure to find root and drop to busybox
initramfs is not loading dmraid and therefore fails to boot.
To work around this, when given the busybox prompt enter:
dmraid -ay
and verify that your raid devices are initialized, thn enter:
exit
and booting should continue. |
Booting from RAID is often broken after upgrades or fresh installations of Ubuntu.
initramfs is not activating RAID devices.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Upgrade or Install Ubuntu on a RAID
2. Reboot
3. Observe failure to find root drive and drop to busybox
To work around this, when given the busybox prompt enter:
dmraid -ay
Verify that all of your raid devices are initialized, then enter:
exit
Booting should then continue.
See comment #2 for a persistent (rebootable) workaround. |
