Quick summary of the problem: Opensuse 10.2 32-bit install on a Pentium D 940 Kernel 2.6.22-git17 or later (last reproduced with 2.6.23-rc1) A kernel built with CONFIG_XEN=y fails to detect the SATA disks during boot, so the root filesystem cannot be mounted and I'm thrown into the emergency /bin/sh. With CONFIG_XEN=n everything works fine. Netconsole logs with initcall_debug=1 of a successful and a failing startup and corresponding .config-s are available at http://www.phnxsoft.com/~ts/linux/ > As Andi said, putting a 'set -x' into /init script generated by /sbin/mkinitrd > is one thing. I'll try. I guess I'll have to unpack/repack the finished initrd image (gzipped cpio archive, AFAICS) for that - or is there a way to have mkinitrd inject that statement for me? > You can also boot with 'linuxrc=trace' to generate a huge > amount of udev and /init debug. That looks simple enough, so I'll try that first, although it looks to me like the trouble happens before udev comes into play. > Booting with 'confirm' will allow you to step each runlevel script, see > /etc/init.d/boot, look for DO_CONFIRM=.
