Hello,
I'm working on a AT91SAM9260-based SoC trying to get a more recent
kernel to load my root file system (ubuntu 9.04). The kernel that came
with the board is 2.6.28.8 and I'm trying to get 2.6.30 or later to
work. The latest one I tried is the just released 2.6.31-6.25 kernel for
Karmic.
The problem I have is that the kernels I compile can't read the two
types of rootfs that I'm trying, ubifs and plain nfs. In the nfs case
the kernel complains that it can't connect to the server but I am sure
the server is available since I can mount the rootfs from any onther
computer in the LAN.
The following are the results when testing the karmic kernel.
Case 1 (UBIFS)
--------------
...
UBIFS error (pid 1): ubifs_get_sb: cannot open "ubi0:rootfs", error -19
VFS: Cannot open root device "ubi0:rootfs" or unknown-block(0,0)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available
partitions:
1f00 256 mtdblock0 (driver?)
1f01 1048320 mtdblock1 (driver?)
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on

Case 1 (NFS)

The original 2.6.28.8 kernel on the same hardware happily mounts either
rootfs type without any problems. Any ideas on what I can do to fix this?
Thank you,
