Hi,
[ Reason ]
In #1103644 it was reported that booting with rootfs on iSCSI
doesn't work. This is caused by lack of /var/lib/iscsi in initramfs
stage, required for iscsistart to create /var/lib/iscsi etc as
needed.
[ Impact ]
Without this fix, booting rootfs via iSCSI isn't working with
Debian/trixie.
[ Tests ]
No automated tests, but a customer of mine is affected and manually
verified the fixed package.
[ Risks ]
Trivial one-line change, being a noop if the directory should exist
already.
[ Checklist ]
[x] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog
[x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[x] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable
[x] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable
[ Changes ]
A single `mkdir -p /var/lib` before invoking iscsistart in the
initramfs script.
[ Other info ]
I'd like to upload version 2.1.11-1+deb13u1 of open-iscsi,
which is prepared also at
https://salsa.debian.org/linux-blocks-team/open-iscsi/-/tree/tri
ie?ref_type=heads
Thanks for consideration.
regards
