[Utnubu-maintainers] Bug#367796: dmraid: init script runs too soon on startup

[Frederic Briere]

Package: dmraid
Version: 0.9.9+1.0.0.rc9-3
Severity: important

By default, the dmraid init script is installed at sequence 03, which
means that it gets run when / is still read-only and udev hasn't been
started yet.  This results in dmraid (or maybe it's libdevmapper)
failing to create the appropriate /dev entries.  (And since I have such
an entry in my fstab, the whole boot sequence is eventually aborted by
fsck.)

Since I moved the script to /etc/rcS.d/S25dmraid (alongside mdadm, which
seems proper), everything now works fine.  (Though now I see that dmraid
ends up running before libdevmapper1.02.  Is that alright?  Hmm.)
