[Bug 363038] Re: casper USB media fails to boot: USB storage device not detected, drops to (initramfs) prompt
I'm fairly certain that the bug Pete is seeing is not a casper bug, because it manifests so early in the boot process; I think we're looking at a kernel, udev, initramfs-tools, or hardware bug. Opening a task on 'linux' for that, for the moment. Since TTBOMK no one else has reproduced that particular failure yet (upon retest, everyone else has said the casper fix resolves the problem for them), this appears to be a very hardware-specific issue. Marking 'medium' for now - if others are still seeing a problem using the next daily ISO build, then we should re-evaluate that, but the information we currently have suggests the remaining bug is not a release blocker. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu Jaunty) Importance: Undecided = Medium -- casper USB media fails to boot: USB storage device not detected, drops to (initramfs) prompt https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/363038 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Another workaround for those who don't have the ability / want / time to download the daily ISO build, when the busybox prompt appears wait around 30 seconds to 1 minute and then type exit and press Enter, busybox should exit and the Ubuntu boot process will continue. This problem could come down to you having an Intel D945 motherboard and the need for extra time in discovering S-ATA devices.

mdz pgraner: do I understand correctly that: - when it drops to the (initramfs) prompt, there is only sda in /sys/block - you run udevadm trigger udevadm settle, and there is still only sda - you plug in a second USB stick, and then you get sdb ? pgraner mdz: yes, exactly Furthermore, pgraner confirms that once he plugs in the second USB stick, *both* the original stick (the one booted from) and the second one (inserted later) are detected at the same time.

[Bug 363038] Re: casper USB media fails to boot: USB storage device not detected, drops to (initramfs) prompt
Reverting revision 611 fixes it for me. With 611 I get errors about head: not found. If I remove the head -n1 from revision 611, I get the 'mount' error in the attached casper.log file. ** Attachment added: casper.log http://launchpadlibrarian.net/25691839/casper.log -- casper USB media fails to boot: USB storage device not detected, drops to (initramfs) prompt https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/363038 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Attaching /proc/mounts, as it seems odd that /dev/sdb1 is mounted twice...over /cdrom and /casper-rw-backing ** Attachment added: /proc/mounts http://launchpadlibrarian.net/25691961/mounts -- casper USB media fails to boot: USB storage device not detected, drops to (initramfs) prompt https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/363038 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 363038] Re: casper USB media fails to boot: USB storage device not detected, drops to (initramfs) prompt
revision 611 - this refers to a change in the casper bzr repo, which corrects a misuse of head (we don't have the 'head' command available in the initramfs). I've pushed a change that fixes this, but I haven't uploaded yet because it doesn't appear to be related to the problem in Pete's logs. It is, however, the problem that Robbie was reproducing (the error in the preceding log is actually due to a mis-application of the fix), and may be the bug that the original submitter (and others) are actually hitting. -- casper USB media fails to boot: USB storage device not detected, drops to (initramfs) prompt https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/363038 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
