kpartx -a /dev/mapper/isw_cjgccechdg_Volume0
, or a suitable equivalent, somewhere during my boot process. The disk identifier is my RAID volume. I've never modified my boot process other than adding some boot flags to
/etc/defaults/grub
, so I'm not sure where to start. Any help would be appreciated. Briefly the issue is that I boot from a RAID volume under legacy BIOS, but after the Mint 21 install the partitions on the RAID volume are not available, so the rest of the boot fails because it can't find the root partition. I end up in an
initramfs
rescue shell. If I issue the kpartx
command above the device nodes for the partitions are created, and then I exit the shell and boot is able to proceed normally. So I'd like to automate this instead of having to rescue my boot manually every time.
