  Binary package hint: dmraid

  hi

  After *a lot* of troubles with Gparted and Grub / Grub-install, I managed to install Maverick Beta from an Alternative CD (iso image dated 05 sept 2010).
  This is a system with Promise Fasttrack fakeraid, booting off 2 disks in striped mode. It's dual boot with XP.

  When booting I see a lot of error messages that indicate a mismatch in the naming of partitions between dmraid and the kernel. It seems one is using the /dev/mapper/pdc_jcchiiab5 convention, while the other uses dm-5.
  After a while it does boot, but as it does not mount /home on /dev/mapper/pdc_jcchiiab6, I can not log on.

  I tried going into recovery mode, dropping into a root session on the right partition, mounting /home and then doing an update-initramfs -u to see if that would restore the right device names for my / and /home.
  It did not work, so I'm not enjoying Maverick yet :-(
  I'm linking this bug to the package linux as well, since I believe it is an issue between dmraid and the kernel.

  If there is more information I should collect, please tell me what you
  need, and give me some hints on how to get them. My CLI and debug skills
  are limited.

  cheers
  Tom
