Where do you see the this? /proc/mounts?

After loads of testing I found out what is the problem: initramfs.
I normally compile my own kernel with all the drivers built-in,
and no initramfs ... and in this case, without initrd, it seems that
/ is somehow not remounted to a proper scsi device, but remains
at /dev/root.
Hope that helps

But that was always the case, no? Yes, it would be nice to
print real root device name in /proc/mounts, but it was
"broken" for as far as I can remember...

I've not been doing that for quite some time now (like a couple of years) ...
