Remains the question, why it never showed up before 2.6.29. I compared my initrd images for 2.6.28 and 2.6.29-rc1, and they only differ in the module-binaries. I wouldn't be surprised if we are just "too fast" again now with the async stuff, for another piece of rather fragile userspace bootup logic, making some wrong assumptions. Are you compiling-in the modules for the root disk and the root filesystem?
