After installing Trusty on a ppc64el box, each boot drops into a shell
because we aren't waiting long enough for the root device:
Gave up waiting for root device. Common problems:
- Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
- Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
- Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
- Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)
ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/d55ef64e-2d0c-4a51-9c6f-20999ee0276e does not exist.
Dropping to a shell!
The dmesg shows the device appeared at 49 seconds:
[ 49.367749] sdb: sdb1 sdb2 sdb3
I could fix this by overriding ROOTDELAY on the command line:
rootdelay=180
Could we get ROOTDELAY in initramfs-tools bumped for ppc64el?
