Summary: mkinitrd doesn't assemble non root and non resume
devices
Classification: openSUSE
Product: openSUSE 12.1
Version: Beta 1
Platform: All
OS/Version: SuSE Other
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: P5 - None
Component: Installation
AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
ReportedBy: konwol123@xxxxx

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:2.0b12) Gecko/20110222
Firefox/4.0b12

Install with following devices on software raid:

boot on md0 (mirroring)
root on lvm
swap on lvm

lvm made on md1 (stripping).

Just after reboot, boot can't be mounted because md0 isn't assembled by
mkinitrd. As a workaround I commented the line in /etc/fstab so boot doesn't
get mounted at all. This forces me to assemble and mount the filesystem before
updating anything on /boot. I guess this will happen with other devices besides
root and resume as well.

From initrd md script I see only /dev/md1 is assembled because it is a device
with root filesystem. /dev/md0 isn't written anywhere on initrd.

It occurs on both OpenSUSE 11.4 and 12.1 Beta. I didn't check other versions.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install with software raid as described, just after reboot emergency console
is enabled because a device from /etc/fstab can't be mounted.
