Hi. I am having some problems with some of my initrds on some of my
debian 9 systems. For instance, when I try to boot the system, the
initrd seems to lack lvm support and since my root fs is a logical
volume, the boot does not work. So, I have booted the system to
sysresccd and look at things. All the logical volumes are still there
when I do this. In the boot directory there is an initrd, but when I
look at it with cpio, it just has the following:
kernel
kernel/x86
kernel/x86/microcode
kernel/x86/microcode/.enuineIntel.align.0123456789abc
kernel/x86/microcode/GenuineIntel.bin
4712 blocks
This seems abnormal to me, I have another Debian system in the cloud
and when I do the same cpio command on its initrd, it has lots of
modules and libraries and all the correct lvm binaries.
It looks like the /etc/makeinitramfs/initramfs.conf are the same on
both systems, so I am stumped as to how to get things working.
Any assistance would be appreciated, as this is driving me to ...
