[Yaird-devel] Bug#382788: yaird does not uses the kernel command like to find out the root partition

[Pierre Habouzit]

Package: yaird
Version: 0.0.12-17
Severity: important

  Instead, it uses a hardcoded value he takes from /etc/fstab
presumably, that makes a system where you rearraged the partition
completely impossible to boot, if you didn't faked the next /etc/fstab
and regenerated the initrd.

  Since I use grub, and if I do forget to change the menu.lst it has a
console to do so, I can always boot. the preliminary extraction of the
initrd then works, but the switch root just fails because it does not
finds the correct root, whereas it on the damn kernel command line !
