udev is supposed to do all of these things. It's supposed to
automatically activate the LVM when the md devices appear, too. I
don't know why it isn't, yet.
Could you please boot with break=premount, and do this:
udevd --verbose >/tmp/udev-output 2>&1 &
udevtrigger
At this point I think you will find that your mds and lvms
are not activated properly; check with
cat /proc/partitions
If as I assume they aren't:
pkill udevd
udevd --verbose >/tmp/udev-output2 2>&1 &
/scripts/local-top/mdadm from-udev
And now your mds should all be activated but hopefully the LVM bug
will recur. So:
pkill udevd
lvm vgscan
lvm vgchange -a y
mount /dev/my-volume-group/my-volume-name /root
cp /tmp/udev-output* /root/root/.
exit
And then when the system boots attach /root/udev-output* and your
initramfs to this bug report.
mdadm_2.5.6-7ubuntu4 ought to fix the fact that md0 comes up in
degraded mode but please don't upgrade to it yet as it may perturb the
other symptoms out of existence.
Thanks,
Ian.
