Might be very useful to look at the code for that-- SanDisk can use
memory cards as virtual disks. Some IBM Microdisks work on a similar
theme driver-wise, as there are both PCMCIA and memory card reader
adapters for same. Essentially, SanDisk has what they call\classify as a
virtual drive adapter, but it is mostly an IC memory module reader for
one of their module lines. Large IC cards with 256 MB and up were made
for high-density digital cameras, and it was convenient to have readers
that handled them as HDs for older PCs that were USB capable but not USB
2.0 capable. In the US, about 5 variants of this theme exist (IC card as
virtual HD, reversing the SWAP idea for portability of data
convenience). Take a pocket sized reader, floppy or CD with drivers, and
high capacity card to any USB capable box, install drivers, run and
carry decent sized chunks of data in tiny package about size of a CD
Business card to any box that will take the data and has USB capable
O/S. Some of these run at USB 2.0 rates.

USB disk drive problems - was Re: [Cooker] kernel panic debugging
Here are some `funnies' that I have found with USB hard disks. Strictly off topic for `Re: [Cooker] kernel panic debugging' but it may help. 1) Some USB disk drives will also cause a kernel panic if plugged in during a boot. These tend to be the `in caddy' type rather than the key fob type. Solution in this case is only to plug them in after the boot has finished. Harddrake doesn't help with this one at all. 2) Take a PC with two USB ports and refer to them as A and B. Plug a USB disk drive (of any type) into A. Mount it, (do some accesses if you wish) and unmount it. Leave the PC for a while (no exact timings available) Plug ANOTHER USB disk into A and attempt to mount it. Error appears typically stating that /dev/sdaX is not a mountable volume Plug same drive into B and attempt to mount it. Success Plug the original drive into A and attempt to mount it. Success Result: Both USB ports are now hard wired to only accept specific hard discs! A reboot is required to use other disck drives. If by any chance another disk drive does actually mount the system will always lock solid usually during a copy or move to the USB disc. 3) There is a kernel patch for the SanDisk USB disk caddies but this does not appear to have been incoporated into the Mandrake kernel.

Might be very useful to look at the code for that-- SanDisk can use memory cards as virtual disks. Some IBM Microdisks work on a similar theme driver-wise, as there are both PCMCIA and memory card reader adapters for same. Essentially, SanDisk has what they call\classify as a virtual drive adapter, but it is mostly an IC memory module reader for one of their module lines. Large IC cards with 256 MB and up were made for high-density digital cameras, and it was convenient to have readers that handled them as HDs for older PCs that were USB capable but not USB 2.0 capable. In the US, about 5 variants of this theme exist (IC card as virtual HD, reversing the SWAP idea for portability of data convenience). Take a pocket sized reader, floppy or CD with drivers, and high capacity card to any USB capable box, install drivers, run and carry decent sized chunks of data in tiny package about size of a CD Business card to any box that will take the data and has USB capable O/S. Some of these run at USB 2.0 rates. John. -- Your favorite stores, helpful shopping tools and great gift ideas.

I am not sure, but I think this is a problem with devfs and cdroms ...

That would be mknod /dev/cdroms/cdrom0 b maj min, where maj min are the numbers to the left of the date on /dev/hdc, or whatever your cdrom is.

When devfs is mounted, this device is automatically created by the kernel, and our future devfsd process will use it to communicate with the kernel. If devfs is already mounted (because the user selected the Automatically mount devfs at boot kernel option), we print out an informational message letting the user know that we won't be able to set up the persistence features of devfs, since we can only do that if devfs has not been mounted by the kernel. -- http://perso.wanadoo.fr/linux_wizard/index.html - La misère a cela de bon qu'elle supprime la crainte des valeurs.

RE: [Cooker] Kernel panic during install
just tried a new install on an ipaq (desktop, not handheld :) ) in graphical mode, X freezes after package selection. In text mode, I get kernel panic. my VERSION, btw, is 'Mandrake Linux Cooker-i586 20010813 16:34' Oh, also, I get errors when trying to format reiserfs partitions through the install. I AM able to mkreiserfs from tty2, though.
Re: [Cooker] Kernel panic
Hello, Occasionally I have seen very similar output trying to mount a 250Mb Zip drive. It doesn't result in a kernel panic but the resulting output is very similar. Moreover trying to umount it never returns and the process does not respond to kill's. The Zip drive is a 'fat' partition.

Re: [Cooker] Kernel Panic: VFS unable to mount root on 3:01
Hy, We just need more info to solve this. Let's see: First of all we need to know if the root file system is working at all. Boot the rescue system from Your Mandrake CD and try to mount root. Try fsck /dev/[your root dev here]. Am 05 Aug 2001 05:55:51 + schrieb StrogKILR: I get this error when I reboot the machine and go from win98 to mandrake. Describe the process You used. I suppose You used loadlin somehow. Do You have a driver for large drive support installed like ezDrive? But then I think this wouldn't be a problem. Can You apply loadlin from MS-DOS before You start Microsoft Windows 98? but I believe I also get it just simply during a cold boot to mandrake. What? You hadn't tested this? Or is this an irregular happening problem? At first it was happening in GRUB (most people seem to have the problem in lilo, so I switched to lilo and I'm still having the problem. What about posting the /etc/lilo.conf file to this list? a list of the partition tables with fdisk /dev/hda would be nice. Does anyone have a good solution for this other than reinstalling MDK 8 ? Reinstalling would be a good choice if the root file system is damaged and can't be repaired. You don't need to reformat Your /home partition. Otherwise I would prefer to repair the system. lilo boots from the first hard drive, which is the linux one. So You are booting lilo first? Are You sure You didn't start lilo from Your master boot record and change the lilo configuration on a partition? After all setting up a boot environment isn't as simple as it should be. Is there a way to restore the MBR? I mean a way to make the MBR listen to the active flag again other than starting fdisk /mbr from MS DOS? Alexander Werth

The problem is due to Mandrake kernel policy inconsistency, as I posted
25-March (no response received, so repeated below.)
The installer kernel is configured "# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_OFFBOARD is not set"
The cooker kernel is configured "CONFIG_BLK_DEV_OFFBOARD=y"
So the installer sees /dev/hd{e,f,g,h} on the Promise but Cooker sees
/dev/hd{a,b,c,d}. So you have to use boot parameter "root=/dev/hda".
Where we've had 2.2 and 2.4 kernels supplied in Cooker, the 2.2 ones were
configured like the installer - this makes switching kernels difficult.
Please, Mandrake, let's be consistent. My preference is to DISABLE by
default 'offboard chipsets first' - the way it always used to be.
Copy of previous posting...
###
Cooker kernels - CONFIG_BLK_DEV_OFFBOARD inconsistency
1) kernel-2.4.2-i586.config (2.4.2-18mdk) : CONFIG_BLK_DEV_OFFBOARD=y
2) kernel-2.2.18-i586-up.config : # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_OFFBOARD is not set
They should both be the same.
The result of 1) is that what were /dev/hd{e,f,g,h} are now
/dev/hd{a,b,c,d}.
So I have to create device files and hack /etc/fstab - I can't be doing
that
every time I want to change kernels, so I'll have to rebuild one of them.
I like to use the stock Mandrake kernels in Cooker, if possible, so this
is
important to me. I have 4 drives on a Promise DMA100 controller and one
SCSI
drive. I only noticed this since reorganising my partitions to boot from
IDE
instead of SCSI. Cooker boots from hd{f,b}5 with root partition on sda11.

RE: [Cooker] Kernel panic w/ 2.2.16-10mdk
I had this.
What you have to do:
Compile the kernel as normal.
Once compiled, BEFORE the reboot, do the following:
mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.2.16-10mdk.img 2.2.16-10mdk --preload reiserfs
Then go to /boot/grub and edit the menu.lst file and change the linux-up or
linux so that it takes the image from the new image file. (grub does not
use symlinks)
Then reboot. All should be well.

RE: [Cooker] Kernel panic w/ 2.2.16-10mdk
To recover it you will need to boot from the Mandrake CD (Unless you have a
disk) then type F1 then rescue.
At the prompt, type modprobe reiserfs
Then mount your / partition using mount -t -a reiserfs
/dev/drive,partition /mnt/disk
Then type chroot /mnt/disk
Uninstall the kernel RPMs on the disk and load the ones from the Mandrake
CD.
Alternatively, you can reinstall Mandrake using the upgrade option when
asked.

Subject: [Cooker] Kernel panic w/ 2.2.16-10mdk
Hi,
I don't know what happened. I installed the 2.2.16-10mdk on my machine.
Since it uses grub and ReiserFS, I recreated the initrd-2.2.16-10mdk.img and
edited the menu.lst.
Now it won't boot, anding with a kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs
on 03:07
This is the only kernel on the hard disk, what can I do to recover this
machine?
Thanks for any help,

Re: [Cooker] Kernel panic w/ 2.2.16-10mdk
This is the only kernel on the hard disk, what can I do to recover this machine? Get your hands on a boot disk or find somebody who has a Reiser compatable ZipSlack set?
RE: [Cooker] Kernel panic w/ 2.2.16-10mdk
Alex, Thanks a lot for your answers. I actually had done that before, but it didn't go as well as that. It is now three days I am trying to recover that machine, and I haven't made any progress. When I boot with the rescue CD, I can access and mount all the partitions, but if I try to boot from the HD, it can't mount the root. I checked everything with reiserfsck (which is not on the rescue), but didn't get any error message. Depending on the mkinitrd version, I got different error messages, but one was a bit more explicit about modprobe not finding some modules. Since I am obviously not the only one having this problem, I now feel there is definitely something broken (kernel or mkinitrd?). Also, grub often tells me that the initrd.img is corrupted or contains bad data. Lilo tells me there is a hole in the map. Eventually, I even tried an 'upgrade' from the released 7.1, but it did not change anything. I also managed to nearly boot from a bootdisk but it ends not being able to find some modules or libraries. Is there anyone with reiserfs still able to boot her/his machine? The other machine I have with e2fs works just fine. Any idea? After 3 days, I am getting dry, so I am going for a (not so free) beer.

Once compiled, BEFORE the reboot, do the following: mkinitrd /boot/initrd-2.2.16-10mdk.img 2.2.16-10mdk --preload reiserfs Then go to /boot/grub and edit the menu.lst file and change the linux-up or linux so that it takes the image from the new image file.

YES!! That's exactly what I also get. All the way from 2.2.16-1 to -4mdk. I imagine it must be something really simple stupid I'm not doing right, but... what is it?

Make sure that reiserFS is a module and not compiled into the kernel, cos it
breaks otherwise.

Subject: [Cooker] kernel panic / initrd?
Hello cooker,
I've just installed kernel 2.2.16-7mdk by rpm and upon reboot, I get
kernel panic after a long line of messages concerning the reiserfs. I
remember having to do 'make initrd' with the kernel rpms a couple of
months back, but I've forgotten the syntax and method for doing this.
Two questions: why isn't this done when the RPMS are installed, and if
you don't mind, could you please refresh my memory how to do this?
Thanks much, Mike

RE: [Cooker] kernel panic / make initrd (part 2)
Yes, I did an "rpm -Uvh". So, suppose for a minute that I am starting over: I have just installed ML 7.1 and I want to use kernel 2.2.16. What must I do to get it right? Perhaps "rpm -ivh" ? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, June 22, 2000 12:58 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [Cooker] kernel panic / make initrd (part 2) "Stratos Laspas" [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: YES!!

RE: [Cooker] kernel panic / initrd?
Hello cooker, I've just installed kernel 2.2.16-7mdk by rpm and upon reboot, I get kernel panic after a long line of messages concerning the reiserfs. I remember having to do 'make initrd' with the kernel rpms a couple of months back, but I've forgotten the syntax and method for doing this. usage: mkinitrd [--version] [-v] [-f] [--ifneeded] [--preload module] [--omit-scsi-modules] [--with module] [--image-version] initrd-image kernel (ex: mkinitrd /boot/initrd 2.0.3) [glee@anakin glee]$ for now, if you don't have a backup kernel, do linux init=/bin/sh at lilo Two questions: why isn't this done when the RPMS are installed, and if you don't mind, could you please refresh my memory how to do this? Thanks much, Mike -- Mike Tracy Holt Kirkland, WA [EMAIL PROTECTED]

oh hang on ...if you can't mount root because of missing initrd looks like init= won't save you either.

I've rebooted the machine now though, and it looks as if I've lost sound. It's a box mostly for testing, so I can just reinstall from the cd. It does seem strange though, that the install of the RPMS wouldn't take care of that - that is the point of having a pre-made package. Anyway, thanks for the info!
