Bug#594156: modules=most does not add virtio_net
Package: initramfs-tools Version: 0.97 Severity: normal Hi, I'm using initramfs-tools in the context of an FAI nfsroot, read, I want to have it booted in a KVM guest with both virtio hard drives and virtio_net. It turns out despite having 'MODULES=most' in /srv/fai/nfsroot/live/filesystem.dir/etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf, the modules 'virtio_pci', 'virtio_blk' and 'virtio_ring' are included, but 'virtio_net' is missing. I'm still looking for a good workaround to get an virtio-net enabled guest installed via an FAI nfsroot. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

You're right, the problem does not seem to be in initramfs-tools. In fact, reinstalling initramfs-tools_0.97 in the generated fai chroot fixes this problem as well. It seems to me that make-fai-nfsroot is installing and/or calling update-initramfs in a bad order that leads to the module 'virtio_net' ending up in the initramfs. I'm CC'ing mikap with this email. Mikap, perhaps you have some idea what might go wrong here? I'm using a more or less basic lenny installation (in an openvz container, but that shouldn't matter) with the packages downloaded from the fai source: deb http://www.informatik.uni-koeln.de/fai/download lenny koeln -- Gruesse/greetings, Reinhard Tartler, KeyID 945348A4 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
