change cmdline as it should (one line)

if you want really investigate, always go for

Code:

cat /proc/$$/mountinfo

and compare against /sys device tree

(the point is that created block/char devices with their names doesn't need to represent what they look and mount (or findmnt) is also not digging device names from kernel dev tree).

Looks like cmdline.txt honors just the first line, as you mentioned, even if it starts with a hash (#). The output started making a lot better sense now.

this one particular problem (dev-fuzz) is combination of
1) something in the system taking root device from /proc/cmdline
2) something different from /boot/cmdline
3) udev creating symlink /dev/root -> device (probably the one from 1))
4) actual boot - if initramfs then it would be the second line, if direct boot kernel, then /proc/cmdline

and then when you use findmnt it will just revolve "readlink -e /dev/root" what is already wrong.
