Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.98.8
Severity: normal
(resending manually because exim hadn't been configured yet)
This is a new Wheezy install on an old server machine. The machine has four
PATA disks, tied to two controllers. The four disks are combined into a SW-raid
volume using mdadm:
ladmin@fury:/tmp$ sudo mdadm --detail /dev/md0|grep /dev/
/dev/md0:
0 8 36 0 active sync /dev/sdc4
1 8 52 1 active sync /dev/sdd4
2 8 4 2 active sync /dev/sda4

[ 1.157034] ata4: PATA max UDMA/100 cmd 0x170 ctl 0x376 bmdma 0xffa8 irq 15
During installation, I configured initramfs-tools to determine the required
modules automatically, which resulted in a non-booting system (notice that
the sil680 module is missing):
ladmin@fury:/tmp$ lsinitramfs /boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-5-686 |grep ata
lib/udev/ata_id
lib/modules/2.6.38-2-686/kernel/drivers/ata
lib/modules/2.6.38-2-686/kernel/drivers/ata/ata_generic.ko
lib/modules/2.6.38-2-686/kernel/drivers/ata/pata_serverworks.ko
lib/modules/2.6.38-2-686/kernel/drivers/ata/libata.ko
As a workaround, I've now added both pata_ modules to /e/i-t/modules,
but that is about as far as my knowledge of initramfs-tools will go.
I'll be glad to try other suggestions, or provide more info.

(regarding the below: I apologize, I can get carried away sometimes...
I'll leave solving this up to you :)
From my reading of sh -x output, it appears that there is just one level too
much indirection going on. We have a
+ readlink -f /dev/mapper/fury-root
/dev/dm-0
Which finds the correct dm device. Following the trace,
+ ls -1 /sys/block/dm-0/slaves
+ block=md0
md0 is identified as the correct md device underlying the lvm VG. But this is
also where it breaks down; the sed expression following it reduces /proc/mdstat
to just a single block device:
+ block=sdc
[...]
+ readlink -f /sys/block/sdc/device
This code maps to dep_add_modules() in hook-functions, particularly the sed
expression on line 288 (preceded by comment "lvm on md"). The code surely
doesn't look like it's designed to handle more than one block device per
invocation, but that is probably what's needed here. It's trivial to modify
the sed expression to that end (replacing the last -e argument):
sed [...] -e 's/\[[0-9]\+\]//g' -e '/^'${block}' :/s/^[^[]*\[ //p'
But that still leaves the issue that the rest of the code expects $block to
only represent a single block device. At the very least, the "#Error out" and
"# sys walk ATA" code blocks (line 350+) would need a loop.
