[Virtual-pkg-base-maintainers] Bug#781172: base: Stock Debian Jessie - can't boot off degraded raid1?

[Guido Haase ♦ ITeHA]

> Can someone confirm that the patch fixes the problem?

Just verified it on two HDDs /dev/sda and /dev/sdb several times by
deleting MBR, BS and PT and booting the RAID1 from just one device.
The boot process performs without stopping at initramfs anyway if
just /dev/sda or /dev/sdb is present.

Disabling disk0 or disk1 in BIOS results in the same. A physical removal
of the drives couldn't be checked because the system is located at a hoster.

So for me Yann's patch works!

Don't forget tp perform a 'update-initramfs -u seems' after patching!

Thanks to Yann for his hint and his patch!

Greetinx,
