Package: src:linux
Version: 3.9.6-1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
I am running Debian from a USB flash drive on a Dockstar. After upgrading to
3.9.6, I am unable to boot because no USB devices are detected at boot.
After comparing the boot messages from a working kernel (3.2.0) I noticed the
module ehci_orion is not loaded in 3.9.6, nor is it included in the initramfs.
I added echi_orion to my /etc/initramfs-tools/modules as a workaround and the
system boots the new kernel fine, now.
My initramfs-tools is configured to include "most" modules. I don't have any
knowledge about how initramfs-tools determines which modules are included, so I
can't provide a patch.
