Package: linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp Version: 2.6.16-14 Severity: serious Justification: 3
Hardware: ASUS P5WD2 Maxtor SATA 300G DELL monitor with 4 usb card readers FPW2004 Configuration: Maxtor hard drive connected to SATA port 1 (sda) The ATA bus is configured in BIOS to AHCI mode. Problem: The kernel randomly swaps the /dev/sda to /dev/sde device and back on boot-up. The confusion occurs when the kernel spontaneously assigns /dev/sda, /dev/sdb, /dev/sdc and /dev/sdd to the USB based card readers. If the kernel selects /dev/sda (SATA IDE) as the boot drive all is good. If the kernel assigns /dev/sda to one of the USB card readers, than the AHCI bus SATA drive gets /dev/sde and the error is" "Waiting for no boot device" P.S same thing occurs with 2.6.17-1-em64t-p4-smp Andrew. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp depends on: ii e2fsprogs 1.39-1 ext2 file system utilities and lib ii initramfs-tools [linux-initra 0.60 tools for generating an initramfs ii module-init-tools 3.2.2-3 tools for managing Linux kernel mo linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp recommends no packages. -- debconf information: linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/preinst/abort-install-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-sm p: linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/preinst/bootloader-initrd-2.6.16-2-em64t-p 4-smp: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/preinst/initrd-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp: linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/postinst/old-dir-initrd-link-2.6.16-2-em64 t-p4-smp: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/postinst/old-initrd-link-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4 -smp: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/preinst/already-running-this-2.6.16-2-em64 t-p4-smp: linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/postinst/bootloader-test-error-2.6.16-2-em 64t-p4-smp: linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/postinst/depmod-error-initrd-2.6.16-2-em64 t-p4-smp: false linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/postinst/kimage-is-a-directory: linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/postinst/old-system-map-link-2.6.16-2-em64 t-p4-smp: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/prerm/would-invalidate-boot-loader-2.6.16- 2-em64t-p4-smp: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/preinst/failed-to-move-modules-2.6.16-2-em 64t-p4-smp: linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/postinst/bootloader-error-2.6.16-2-em64t-p 4-smp: linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/postinst/depmod-error-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-sm p: false linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/preinst/lilo-initrd-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/preinst/elilo-initrd-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp : true linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/preinst/overwriting-modules-2.6.16-2-em64t -p4-smp: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/preinst/abort-overwrite-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4- smp: linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/postinst/create-kimage-link-2.6.16-2-em64t -p4-smp: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/prerm/removing-running-kernel-2.6.16-2-em6 4t-p4-smp: true linux-image-2.6.16-2-em64t-p4-smp/preinst/lilo-has-ramdisk: ------------------------------------------------------- -- Andrew -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
