I see that mkinitrd already has special cases for block device modules that require a delay after loading. For example, the usb-storage module. I have added an identical special case for the 3w-9xxx module with a 5 second sleep, and now I can boot consistently without having to manually hack the initrd. Please add this fix to mkinitrd. |
