Bug#362056: More board combinations tested

2006-04-14 Thread Jack Carroll
If the target machine is configured with two identical 3C905B
boards:

eth0 gets assigned to IRQ 11 and shared with uhci_hcd:usb1.
eth1 gets assigned to IRQ 10 and shared with cs46xx.

With two 3C509B boards installed and configured, the kernel can also
assign an IRQ to one ISA-PNP board.  An SMC-ultra gets assigned to IRQ 5.

All three of these boards come up properly, and communicate.

But, if there is a PCI Tulip board installed, its driver module is
loaded automatically at boot time after 3c59x.  Then, the command
ifconfig eth2 192.168.136.55
causes the machine to freeze instantly.  No error messages are available. 
This happens whether the ISA board is plugged in or not.
There's nothing wrong with the Tulip board.  It works on other
machines.

what does simply exiting the shell do?

update-initramfs isn't a noop,
it happily include all the needed evms root support,
as evms added its hooks and calls update-initramfs.


Specifically, if you forget to do some piece of configuration, you now have enough piece in the initramfs to recover your system.

This is by design.

I'm only reading this thread intermittantly, sorry for the lag.  The bug here is generally that dpkg doesn't have a "do this last and once" hook.  I agree that it would be nice if it didn't burn time on each step of the way.

Having a backup file might make sense.  Then again, if you've just installed something to get support, why should this support *not* be available everywhere?  Requiring the user to do a step that a computer ought to have done doesn't make sense.

tks,
Jeff Bailey

2006-04-14 Thread C. Dominik Bódi
Yes, booting that kernel gets me into the rescue shell. All /dev/hda? 
partitions that should exist do so, as well.

Here's a list of modules that are loaded:
usbhid
8139too
ide_cd
cdrom
ide_disk
generic
ohci1394
ieee1394
8139cp
mii
ehci_hcd
ohci_hcd
atiixp
ide_core
usbcore
thermal
processor
fan

I am using grub, with an extra partition /dev/hda7 set up as /boot.

/proc/cmdline is
root=/dev/hda8 ro lapic

I did install debian again, once I had upgraded it to unstable, the same bug 
happened. I did keep the kernel from testing this time (see original report 
for version), which boots without having this problem.

I tried something in the rescue shell: I mounted /dev/hda8 to /root manually 
using the following command:
mount -t ext3 /dev/hda8 /root

Then I exited the rescue shell and the system did boot normally.

Dominik

initramfs differs from initrd as it's no fs, but just an archive.
you can easily append stuff to it that wasn't inside yet.

sure and point the $bootloader to your new location.
but i bet many user will forget to regnerate your initramfs in those cases.

linux-image doesn't directly depend on an initramfs-tools hook like udev
so i don't understand that point.

ok this indicates 2 bugs:
- initramfs-tools no longer allowed to call update-initramfs
- exit 1 if hook script doesn't get it right
  as linux-image will never depend on the hook itself, there is an high
  probability that the hook is in state unpacked.

Bug#362642: ipv4 dhcp is not working in kernel 2.6.14-2

2006-04-14 Thread Cai Qian
package: kernel
version: 2.6.14-2
severity: important

Hi,

I have the same problem as bug 270451 here, although my networking
card is different. I have dist-upgraded my box yestoday, and the
dhcp-client just never got an address anymore. When I type "ifconfig",
strangely, eth0 got a IPv6 address. I think that is the problem, but
it seems I can't get back to IPv4 address. I have modified
/etc/modules.conf to avoid load ipv6 module, and blacklist-ed it in
/etc/hotplug/blacklist. Nevertheless, it was just never back to IPv4
anymore.  My /etc/network/interfaces is as the following,

auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp

that is the error message of initramfs-tools when no root device came up.
i guess you got into the rescue shell:
did you check if /dev/hda8 existed?
did you check which modules got loaded?

Bug#362631: linux-image-2.6.16-1: fails to mount root device

2006-04-14 Thread C. Dominik Bódi
Package: linux-2.6
Version: 2.6.16-6
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

*** Please type your report below this line ***
The kernel seems to boot up normally, but then fails to mount the root device
with a message
"failed to mount root on /dev/hda8 - no such device"
according to dmesg logs I can see that hda gets initialised normally. I
could not find any errors related to the initalisation of the ide controller
or hard disk, either.

Booting the kernel without the initial ramdisk fails with a kernel panic.

The system used to work with version 2.6.16-5 or earlier. However, since the
last upgrade was done on April 3rd 2006, I cannot remember the exact version
of the linux-image package I upgraded from. Due to not having a backup
kernel installed, I had to re-install the box from scratch and lost all
apt/dpkg logfiles.

I tried booting the linux-image-2.6.16-1-686 instead but bot the same error.

Sure, I think there's something to the point someone else made in this
thread that each 2.6.x is essentially a new major version now. Although
clearly not quite the same as before.

Bug#361368: fixed upstream

2006-04-14 Thread Wouter Verhelst
Hi,

I'd been trying kernels out of git, a few days before 2.6.16 was
released, and had seen these Oopses (and subsequent modprobe segfaults)
there, too. However, the final 2.6.16 kernel did not show this
behaviour; I can load the snd-powermac module on kernel.org 2.6.16 (and
.1) with no issues.

Don't know whether this is helpful, just tought I'd mention it...

Upstream declared 2.6 a constant for the time being, so the third
component remains the only one to make a version distinction.

We already saw that for 2.6.12 -> .13.

Bug#348147: Bug#358452: [Pkg-cryptsetup-devel]...

2006-04-14 Thread David Härdeman
Please note that this bug (348147) is not about the cryptsetup 
hook/script per se anymore, but rather about the possibility to alter 
global variables from subscripts.


Therefore, I've cloned Arjan's mail into a separate bug report against 
cryptsetup (362564, which in turn in an enhancement of the hook and 
script in report 358452).


The gist of this bug report is still:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=348147;msg=48

Regards,
David

i would stick with HZ_250 everywhere.
the upstream change seems not contested since.

also you may get subtile driver breaks on those that don't get HZ right.
much safer calculation is upstream value.
i'm no fanboy of dyn_hz.

After upgrading to kernel 2.6.16 I could boot my laptop without the
