Public bug reported: Under the installation it does not detect my disk so i have to choose the EATA driver/module. It finds my disk and continues to install. After rebooting, and passing grub, the system fails to find my disk. This is the output: Starting up ... Loading, please wait... Check root = bootarg cat /proc/cmdline or missing modules, devices: cat /proc/modules ls /dev ALERT! /dev/disk/by-uuid/ (disk uuid) does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
cat /proc/cmdline shows: root=UUID=(disk uuid) ro quiet splash cat /proc/modules lists these modules: ide_cd, cdrom, floppy, tulip, uhci_hcd, usbcore, piix, generic, fbcon, tileblit, font, bitblit, softcursor, vesafb, capability and commoncap. uname -a shows: Linux (none) 2.6.20-15-server #2 SMP Thu Jun 7 20:26:23 UTC 2007 i686 unknown Of course, loading the EATA module manually in BusyBox works. And i can access my disks. cat /proc/modules now lists these extra modules: sg, st, sd_mod, eata and scsi_mod. I have tried upgrading with apt, witch installs the latest kernel: 2.6.20-16-server. I have also tried to including the modules: sg, st, sd_mod and scsi_mod in /etc/modules. Here are some hardware specifications: Intel SE440BX Motherboard Intel Pentium II 350MHz, 512KB cache 767MB SDRAM SCSI controller: DPT PM2144UW Hard drive: IBM Ultrastar If more info is needed, request it. ** Affects: Ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- EATA driver does not load after install https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/120426 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
