@SailorMH
Please test this kernel with the latest Debian 10 NETINST isos. I think Partman looks for the RAID and LVM kernel modules.

@All
Please test the kernels.

Thanks,
Christian

Hi Ace,

Thanks a lot for testing! Which dtb file do you use? Do you have a X5000/20 or X5000/40?

Thanks,
Christian
