Re: [Cooker] 8.2b3, mkinitrd causes system lockup
Hi again, Should I try an mdk kernel? We can't give you support if you don't use our kernel.. Well I would If I could :) [root@grunt:root]# rpm -ihv /home/tomas/tmp/get/kernel-2.4.17.22mdk-1-1mdk.i586.rpm Preparing...### [100%] 1:kernel-2.4.17.22mdk### [100%] mke2fs 1.26 (3-Feb-2002) crashes here At the moment when the e2fs filesystem is built using loopback. Could it be you have a problem with your loopback? Thanks for the pointer, that might be the problem. I'll have to look into it a bit further.

Could it be you have a problem with your loopback? PS: Since I'm only using initrd for the reiserfs module I guess I could just compile it in an not use initrd anymore... Yes but be informed that you won't be able to provide mount options (such as notail for reiserfs for example).
