Package: udev
Version: 0.105-4
Severity: important

I'm using root=UUID=.... to make sure to use the right rootdevice for
booting. On a testing system the rootpartition is on SW-RAID (mdadm).

Booting using initramfs-tools/udev/mdadm fails because udev does not
provide the symlinks in /dev/disk/by-* for the md arrays.

It does not work since udev 0.105-1 due to the following change:

,---- [ /usr/share/doc/udev/changelog.Debian.gz ]
| udev (0.105-1) unstable; urgency=medium
|
| [...]
|   * persistent.rules: ignore md* devices because their add events are
|     unreliable.
`----

Re-enabling the md* devices (so not using the GOTO="no_volume_id"
for md* in persistent.rules) provides the symlinks necessary for
booting the system via root=UUID=....

regards,
