@rowswell
I was not able to reproduce your issue on my system.
Could you please give more information about your setup:
PowerVM ? PowerBareMetal ? VM in KVM on Power ?
Are you using multipathed disk ? Boot on SAN ?
Could you also please share the content of /var/lib/rear/layout/disklayout.conf and send use the log generated when you run rear -v mkbackup (or just rear -v mkrescue because the issue is on the rescue media, not the backup)
I also recommend the following options:
If you have multipathed devices: AUTOEXCLUDE_MULTIPATH=n
If your system Boot on San device : BOOT_OVER_SAN=y
If you are using PowerVM : REAR_INITRD_COMPRESSION=lzma
Tell me if it helps.
Here is then rear/local.conf I used.
AUTOEXCLUDE_MULTIPATH=n
BOOT_OVER_SAN=y
REAR_INITRD_COMPRESSION=lzma
### write the rescue initramfs to USB and update the USB bootloader
