Description:   Opened: 2007-03-13 16:55 0000 
Booting a RAID1 system with LUKS encrypted ROOT.
Genkernel complains about missing device (/dev/md3 in my case)
adding root= or real_root= to grub.conf helped creating the missing devices,
but would not boot set root to /dev/mapper/root.
After reading through genkernel's initrd.scripts and linuxrc, I found a missing
line in initrd.scripts

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
Not cleanly booting system.
Additional typing is need to get it running (setting root device)

Expected Results:  
clean boot, with interrupt for luks passphrase.

initrd.script-patch, created with diff -upN

The patch, as announced.

BTW. I've been running genkernel-3.4.6, no guarantee on later versions

OK.  I've added this to SVN and it will show up in the next genkernel release.

Thanks a lot

I already started to fear that my report was incomplete, or too unimportant.

Nah, we had taken a break after 2007.0's release, and then I got a new job and
moved across the country.  I'm just now returning and starting to churn through
the 1000+ bugs in my Inbox...

Please test genkernel 3.4.9_prer1 or better.  This should be fixed now.
