Comment 9 for bug 1077650

this is *not* a duplicate (of bug #728435) as bernd wrote.
i am not entirely sure, because in my case i am also suffering from another crypto-related bug, but i think lvm2 might be involved too:

mountroot_fail() in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-premount/lvm2 does never return 0 although scanning for new lvs might actually fix things and should restart the search for the root device. but as said i am not sure... initramfs-tools are pretty complicated regarding interoperability of the various scripts/packages.

anyway, this needs way more attention... raids should be used to up reliability not downtimes :/
best (as always) would probably to see if debian is also affected and fix it there first then...
