folks, hi,

bug reported: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugr...i?bugc6123

i was wondering if anyone else has a similar configuration (booting
off of root LVM partitions) and had encountered similar issues of root
filesystems being unrecognised.

i've established the cause of the problem: an "apt-get install lvm2
grub" made the problem "go away", presumably by installing a newer
libdevmapper1.02.

so there are missing/broken dependencies in the
linux-image-2.6.39-2-amd64 package.

I run / on an LVM partition.
Running uptodate Sid.
No problems.
