Package: kernel-image-2.4.27-2-686 Version: 2.4.27-7 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system
When the install of kernel-image tries to create initrd, those lines go to /var/log/messages: Jan 20 09:39:39 fregate kernel: device-mapper: unknown block ioctl 0x801c6d02 Jan 20 09:39:40 fregate last message repeated 14 times I do have 15 logical volumes, which explains how many times the message is emitted... I guess I should mention a bit of my partitionning scheme, out of my /etc/fstab: # system /dev/mapper/vg-root / ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1 /dev/mapper/vg-usr_lib /usr/lib ext3 defaults 0 1 /dev/mapper/vg-usr_share /usr/share ext3 defaults 0 1 /dev/mapper/vg-doc /usr/share/doc ext3 defaults 0 1 /dev/mapper/vg-locale /usr/share/locale ext3 defaults 0 1 /dev/mapper/vg-cache_apt /var/cache/apt/archives ext3 defaults 0 2 maybe my having /usr/lib on a different logical volume is relevant... just a guess of mine, of course... my other logical volumes are one for /home, and some for subdirectories of /home, so should not be relevant... Last thing I guess I can mention is that on another machine, with only one logical volume for /, and one for /home, /var/log/messages gets its two lines, but the system boots properly... you might notice I presently run a 2.4.27-1-686, this is my rescue that I had a hard time to setup when the problem first happend to me with the last update of 2.4.27-1-868, which really hang the computer, having overwritten my working kernel. (that did not happen this time because of the -1-686 to -2-686 move) -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.27-1-686 Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Versions of packages kernel-image-2.4.27-2-686 depends on: ii coreutils [fileutils] 5.2.1-2 The GNU core utilities ii fileutils 5.2.1-2 The GNU file management utilities ii initrd-tools 0.1.76 tools to create initrd image for p ii modutils 2.4.26-1.2 Linux module utilities -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
