hi all, i have now running kernel26 with cpio and initrd configured to compare. both boot fine. [1]
however, when i plug an firewire harddrive to the running machine, cpio does not load sd-mod automatically whereas initrd does. uppon plug-in, dmesg says with both this: ieee1394: Node added: ID:BUS[0-00:1023] GUID[00d04b4b1a068396] ieee1394: sbp2: Driver forced to serialize I/O (serialize_io=1) ieee1394: sbp2: Try serialize_io=0 for better performance scsi0 : SBP-2 IEEE-1394 ieee1394: sbp2: Logged into SBP-2 device ieee1394: Node 0-00:1023: Max speed [S400] - Max payload [2048] Vendor: WDC WD20 Model: 00BB-00FTA0 Rev: 15.0 Type: Direct-Access-RBC ANSI SCSI revision: 04 and the initrd one continues with: SCSI device sda: 390721968 512-byte hdwr sectors (200050 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 11 00 00 00 SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back SCSI device sda: 390721968 512-byte hdwr sectors (200050 MB) sda: Write Protect is off sda: Mode Sense: 11 00 00 00 SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back sda: sda1 sda2 sd 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi disk sda kjournald starting. Commit interval 5 seconds EXT3-fs warning: maximal mount count reached, running e2fsck is recommended EXT3 FS on sda2, internal journal EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode. but cpio does not, it does only, if i do modprobe sd-mod by hand. something is missing. greetings, Damir [1] : /etc/lilo.conf - attached -- E.T. GO HOME!!! (And take your Smurfs with you.)
