For grub2 works fine for me, but the issue here was after grub had done its |
| 19 |
job, is the way dracut or more accurately the initrd, was trying to mount |
| 20 |
partitions before calling init. |
| 21 |
Not sure at all, but the fstab inside the initrd would have had something |
| 22 |
to do, so maybe, setting UUIDs in fstab and reconstructing the initrd, |
| 23 |
might prevent the issue from happening again. |

I think it's metadata stored in the PV. |
