Well, seems I was slightly too fast to claim that it had been fixed.
The problem is that I have created the MD RAID device as "/dev/md/raid1" (resp.
"/dev/md/MyPC:raid1"), but "mkinitrd" is *only* creating the device
"/dev/md127" in the final installed system!
This discrepancy in naming handling of the "mkinitrd" causes problems later on,
while the "/dev/md/raid1" (resp. "/dev/md/MyPC:raid1") does not exist in the
finished installed system.
The problem seems to be with the creation of the "/dev/md" devices:
# ll /dev/md
total 0
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 8 Jul 7 01:25 MyPC:raid1 -> ../md127
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jul 7 01:25 MyPC:raid1p1 -> ../md127p1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jul 7 01:25 MyPC:raid1p2 -> ../md127p2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Jul 7 01:25 MyPC:raid1p3 -> ../md127p3
# ll /dev/md127*
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 9, 127 Jul 7 01:25 /dev/md127
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 259, 0 Jul 7 01:25 /dev/md127p1
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 259, 1 Jul 7 01:25 /dev/md127p2
brw-rw---- 1 root disk 259, 2 Jul 7 01:25 /dev/md127p3
Apparently "mkinitrd" follows the symlink of "/dev/md/MyPC:raid1*" instead of
using the actual name and thus resulting in only setting up "/dev/md127*" and
not "/dev/md/MyPC:raid1*" as well as /dev/md127*"!!??
