Still today, it fails to mount /usr if /usr is a logical volume using lvm2


I worked around that problem with an extra "activate" line in the following file:

   /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/local-top/lvm2

       activate "/dev/mapper/vg0-usr"


I placed that after the line to activate ROOT....

So, still broken after all this time :(

This is a system now running Devuan Beowulf btw, but it gets most of it's packages directly from Debian repos.
