rootdelay=10 necessary - shouldn't the initrd wait for the rootdev?

Heyho!

With a linux-image-2.6.32-2-686 (or the current -trunk- version as well), 
one of our systems needs a manually specified rootdelay=10 (ok, 5 would 
probably enough).

This is with the current fai 3.3.4~beta from the fai repo on a Debian 
squeeze.

This is basically just FYI - I'm not sure how far this is fai specific, 
haven't installed squeeze on this hw.  HW is an IBM Bladecenter with LSI and 
QLogic scsi.  Once I add rootdelay the system works fine.

cheers
