Please don't drop me from Cc when replying. I know the list has a misguided setup, but mailers can be configured to ignore that.

Whether there may be a bug that prevents a successfully > upgraded system from booting - well that's what testing is for. I'm not sure the upgrade method matters, does it? In both cases I think it was changes to dracut and the way raid was assembled (perhaps moving from automatically in the kernel to doing it in userspace, or vice versa). > > So let's please ensure that we have proper > > test coverage for existing systems. > > Please describe your proposal for ensuring proper test coverage, in > particular if you personally aren't able to test what is by definition > a custom layout? Nono, this *isn't* a custom layout. It's a fairly standard RAID setup. But if we change the defaults, then I suppose that retrospectively *makes* it a "custom layout"... at least in the sense that we can reasonably expect it to keep breaking every release or two :(
