Title:
  mountall: hooks/mountall problem

Status in “mountall” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  ubuntu 13.10 (14.10.2013)
  mountall_2.52_amd64.deb

  
  /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/mountall contains processing of $INITRAMFS_EVENT_DRIVEN variable.

  during usual running of update-initramfs some files (passwd, etc) needed for
  getpwuid() function are not included in initrd.

  this function is required for the package open-iscsi (Bug #1238169) to
  work in initrd. so we should either duplicate the code (passwd, etc)
  from hooks/mountall in hooks/iscsi or *always* run hooks/mountall.

  i would offer to use the second variant. patch is attached.
