Bug#402931: initramfs-tools does not support redhat lvm naming schema

2006-12-14 Thread Schumacher, Bernd

I have to run Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 4) on
a customer project. This is, as far as I know, the newest stable Red Hat
Enterprise Release.

The most important command on this system is "chroot /debian".

The redhat system was installed with as many default values as possible
(also lvm configuration). 
Because I want to be able, to also boot debian directly, I used the
patch described below.

Here is the requested symlink info:

ls -l /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 
lrwxrwxrwx  1 root root 31 Dec 15 00:44 /dev/VolGroup00/LogVol00 ->
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00

ls -l /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 
brw-rw  1 root disk 253, 0 Dec 15 01:43
/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00

If this is a to specific change request, do you see a possiblity to have
a config file, with additional LVM naming schemas?

Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.85b
Severity: normal

When lilo -t fails update-initramfs exits with an error (due to set -e)
but provides no indication to the user.  When called in postinst the
failure is reported by, e.g., aptitude but there is no explanation of
what went wrong.

This could leave a system unbootable if update-initramfs is run outside
of package management (where the failure is invisible) or if the user doesn't
realize an upgrade failure might be serious.

I suggest that the stderr of lilo -t should at least be provided to the
user, or perhaps run_lilo() should do set +e and then complain loudly if
lilo -t fails.

Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.38
Severity: normal

Having cpio break sym-links is undesirable.  For the case of shared objects
it's probably best to use "cp -L" to break the links while copying.

Currently the initrd is generated with both /bin/busybox and /bin/sh having
the same file contents.

Also the busybox program is not used adequately.  /bin contains discrete
programs for cat, chroot, dd, false, gzip, insmod, ln, ps, mkdir, mkfifo,
mount, printf, sleep, true, umount, and uname, they could all be replaced by
sym-links to busybox to save some disk space.  Also some of the other programs
could be built in to busybox to save space (pivot_root is one example).

Making these changes should save signinificantly on the amount of disk space
and RAM used for booting.

Package: ipw3945d
Version: 1.7.22-2

On bootup the daemon is started by modprobe when the ipw3945 module is 
loaded.  A few seconds later the daemon is started again from 
/etc/init.d/ipw3945d.  The strange thing is the daemon is in fact 
started twice.  As there are 2 daemons fighting for the same card, the 
network is not functioning.

...


I tried adding

if test -e "${DAEMON_PID_FILE}"; then...

to the start_daemon() section of /etc/init.d/ipw3945d, but this did not 
work as the pid file was not yet written when the daemon was started the 
second time.  The start-stop-daemon process is probably still running at 
that time, but not yet ipw3945d.


It works with a pgrep though (also matches the start-stop-daemon process 
i guess).  So this does the trick:


start_daemon() {
  if have_sys_entries; then
remove_stale_pid
if pgrep ipw3945d; then
log_warning_msg "ipw3945d already starting!!"
else
log_daemon_msg "Starting ipw3945 regulatory daemon" "ipw3945d"
start-stop-daemon --start --quiet --chuid "${DAEMON_OWNER}" 
\
  --exec "${DAEMON_BINARY}" --pidfile 
"${DAEMON_PID_FILE}" \
  --oknodo -- --pid-file=${DAEMON_PID_FILE} 
--quiet\

  --log-file=${DAEMON_LOG_FILE} > /dev/null 2>&1
code=$?
log_end_msg ${code}
sleep 1
fi
  else

Bug#403171: linux-image-2.6.18-3-686: Please update yaird Depends version to >= 0.0.12-15

2006-12-14 Thread Peter Moulder
Package: linux-image-2.6.18-3-686
Version: 2.6.18-8
Severity: important


Configuring linux-image-2.6.18-3-686 with yaird 0.0.12-14 fails (“bad
value in /boot/config-2.6.18-3-686:
CONFIG_DEFCONFIG_LIST="/lib/modules/$UNAME_RELEASE/.config"”), whereas
0.0.12-18 succeeds.  (See partial transcript below.)

Looking at yaird's changelog.Debian.gz, I see that 0.0.12-15 includes a
change to “[e]xtend patch 1002 to allow "$" in KConfig regex (as
introduced in 2.6.17-rc1-mm3).”

I conclude that the "...$UNAME_RELEASE..." value in
/boot/config-2.6.18-3-686 requires a yaird of version 0.0.12-15 or
greater.

Please accordingly change linux-image-2.6.18-3-686's Depends line from 
‘yaird (>= 0.0.12-8)’ to ‘yaird (>= 0.0.12-15)’.

Thanks,

pjrm.

I just got one more non fatal Oops yesterday (see below) with
linux-image-2.6.18-3-amd64.  I did not shut down the box, and I am still
running it.

It is very likely that this is the problem.  It happens in exactly that
function, and it is a NULL pointer dereferencing.  I am happier now,
because this means that the Oops is harmless.

If you want, I can download the sources and compile them for amd64.  I
only observe the problem on this box.

Under 2.6.18 these warnings also show up but the build succeeds, while
2.6.19 fails at this step.  Is that intentional given that they are

Perhaps the problem is this one (fixed in 2.6.19-pre4):

http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=201a95afaa324b23188eeec268f6bb0b4b70b710

I don't have packages for AMD64, but if the problem persists with
official i386 kernels, then please report back if it is solved by using
one of the i386 packages available here:

deb http://debian.jones.dk/ sid kernels

reassign 401980 linux-2.6
retitle 401980 msync() fixes break NSLU2 (apt segfaults)
thanks

It seems the msync() LSB fixes applied in -6 break the NSLU2: during
d-i, apt-get segfaults.  This does not happen on a system that is
already installed (only during d-i) and not on any other ARM machines.

Gordon will try to find out which of the msync() patches is the
culprint.  Once we know that, we can decide what to do (i.e. whether
there's a fix for that patch or whether I'll just revert it on ARM
since LSB on ARM doesn't exist anyway afaik).

Bug#403051: linux-image-2.6.18-3-686: lm78 hwmon driver stopped working on upgrade from Sarge

2006-12-14 Thread Bjørn Mork
Package: linux-image-2.6.18-3-686
Version: 2.6.18-7
Severity: normal

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-
Hash: SHA1

lm78 hwmon stopped working after upgrading from Sarge (kernel-image-2.6.8-3-686 
version 2.6.8-16sarge6) to Etch (linux-image-2.6.18-3-686 version 2.6.18-7).

The system is an Asus P2L97S, having a LM78-J on ISA port 0x290.  This used to 
show up as the directory /sys/bus/i2c/drivers/lm78/0-0290/. After upgrading,
this directory has disappeared:

canardo:/home/bjorn# lsmod|grep lm78
lm78   15988  0 
i2c_isa 5152  1 lm78
hwmon_vid   2784  1 lm78
i2c_core   19680  6 
lm78,i2c_dev,i2c_algo_bit,i2c_isa,eeprom,i2c_piix4
canardo:/home/bjorn# ls -l /sys/bus/i2c/drivers/lm78/
total 0
- --w--- 1 root root 4096 2006-12-14 12:20 bind
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root0 2006-12-14 12:20 module -> ../../../../module/lm78
- --w--- 1 root root 4096 2006-12-14 12:20 unbind


sensors-detect still finds the chip:
...
Some chips are also accessible through the ISA I/O ports. We have to
write to arbitrary I/O ports to probe them. This is usually safe though.
Yes, you do have ISA I/O ports even if you do not have any ISA slots!
Do you want to scan the ISA I/O ports? (YES/no): 
Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78' at 0x290...   No
Probing for `National Semiconductor LM78-J' at 0x290... Success!
(confidence 6, driver `lm78')
Probing for `National Semiconductor LM79' at 0x290...   No
...
Driver `lm78' (should be inserted):
  Detects correctly:
  * ISA bus address 0x0290 (Busdriver `i2c-isa')
Chip `National Semiconductor LM78-J' (confidence: 6)
...
 
But sensors can't read anything (as expected since the sysfs entries are 
missing):
canardo:/home/bjorn# sensors
No sensors found!
Make sure you loaded all the kernel drivers you need.
Try sensors-detect to find out which these are.


Let me know if you need more information about the system.

I tested it with linux-image-2.6.17-2-486 from testing and
the error is gone. Thus I think we can close this bug.

Bug#403041: breaks crypto setup

2006-12-14 Thread Holger Levsen
package: usplash
severity: important
version: 0.3e
tags: security 

Hi,

I recently installed usplash on powerpc, together with a crypted partition 
using dm-crypt. 

Usplash doesn't give me a prompt to enter the passphrase (which I just filed a 
wishlist bug about), but whats much worse, when I manually switch to the text 
console and enter the passphrase, it is shown in clear on the screen and 
doesnt work.

When switching to the text console before the passphrase is prompted, it 
works. 

I filed this bug as important because of these two issues together: it breaks 
functionality and additional has the potential to leak  a probably very 
complicated passphrase. If it just wouldn't work, I would have used normal 
severity.


regards,
Holger

P.S.: I'm sorry to be so unspecific, I've done this install more than two 
weeks ago and forgot to file the bugreport.

Dec 13 13:35:04 werckmeister kernel:  sda: p7 exceeds device capacity

The drive has 80MB, as stated by the manufacturer and correctly reported by 
the 2.6.17 and previous kernels: SCSI device sda: 156368016 512-byte hdwr 
sectors (80060 MB).

The disc was partitioned when the kernel saw the whole disk, i.e. 156368016 
blocks. 2.6.18 sees only 139968963 blocks (16399053 blocks are missing), but 
the last partition ends after block 139968963.
