I got this when installing the default sarge kernel: Setting up kernel-image-2.6.8-3-686-smp (2.6.8-16sarge6) ... /usr/sbin/mkinitrd: add_modules_dep_2_5: modprobe failed FATAL: Module megaraid_mbox not found. WARNING: This failure MAY indicate that your kernel will not boot! but it can also be triggered by needed modules being compiled into the kernel. I assume that is a problem. If someone with more knowledge of what hardware is actually on deleuze wants to get a 2.6.8 kernel installed and reboot the machine, feel free to do so and then bug me on IRC. Its easy enough to get the AFS module recompiled. (Or you can build it while rebuilding a kernel, if needed.) <<CDC _______________________________________________ HCoop-SysAdmin mailing list [email protected] http://hcoop.net/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hcoop-sysadmin
