Use mapdevfs to find the device of the root filesystem.
This no longer forces the device path for the root system to be a DASD. Instead it infers the root device like on any other platform. (The code is mostly the one lilo-installer uses.) This requires sysconfig-hardware (>= 0.0.10+nmu3, or feature-equivalent) in the target system to set the relevant DASDs online by using configuration stored in the initrd. It is copied into the final system by s390-sysconfig-writer.
