Re: aufs working on 2.6.21.1 (x86-64)?
More unfortunately, I cound use 2.6.21(.1) since the sis900 nic driver is broken. But it seems to be fixed already in git tree. I am waiting for 2.6.21.2. I think it will take long time. Here is the patch for 2.6.21.1 sis900 driver, if you are interested.

Re: aufs working on 2.6.21.1 (x86-64)?
[EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, Michael Creel: I am attempting to update the kernel of the parallelknoppix64-rc1 live CD to use kernel 2.6.21.1 instead of 2.6.19.7. I updated aufs to yesterday's CVS and compiled the aufs.ko module as normal (make KDIR=/usr/src/linux -f local.mk). Everything seems to go well, but when the CD is booted (actually, I use VMware to boot the image), there is a failure at the point that the aufs filesystem is mounted, leading to a failure bad /proc/mounts 1 message. So I'm wondering if aufs is supposed to work with 2.6.21.1, x86_64, and I am doing something wrong, or if I just need to wait a bit for support to be added. Thanks, Michael Unfortunately, I don't have 64bit environment, so I didn't test aufs on 64bit personally. But some users reported to me or this ML that aufs is running fine. More unfortunately, I cound use 2.6.21(.1) since the sis900 nic driver is broken. But it seems to be fixed already in git tree. I am waiting for 2.6.21.2. About failure bad /proc/mounts 1, do you have /proc/mounts when you mounted aufs? If you don't, try -i option for mount(8). otherwise please send me your /proc/mounts. Junjiro Okajima I am trying this using VMware, and I can't grab screen output to paste into a message, so I've made two screenshots showing what happens when booting. They are at http://pareto.uab.es/mcreel/pk64-aufs.png and http://pareto.uab.es/mcreel/pk64-aufs2.png In the first, you see that /proc/mounts exists. The first shot is right before the attempt to mount the aufs filesystem. The second show the last part of the errors, sorry I don't have any means to capture the first part - it flies by to fast for me to see it.

Can you capture the entire message at kernel panic? Linux Tux is hiding them. :-) I want to know whether the aufs debug message was printed or not.

Re: aufs working on 2.6.21.1 (x86-64)?
Sorry, I can't figure out how to do that. There is something that prints to screen, but I don't have time to read it. However, I notice that the latest Sidux test release for amd64 is using kernel 2.6.21.1 with aufs, so I think that the problem I'm seeing may be somewhere other than aufs.
