Package: kernel-image-2.4.27-2-mckinley-smp This may be a bug in initrd-tools but it is triggered by this and earlier kernels.
The reboot to stage 2 in the install fails if the root filesystem is XFS. The symptom is a kernel panic caused by a failure of insmod to load xfs.o from the initrd. This causes pivot_root to fail (nothing to pivot to) which triggers the panic when init catches a fatal signal. The failure of insmod is an error reading the ELF header. There is also a "no space on device" error. The installer itself can partition, format, and load to an xfs root. In addition, if the system is installed with another filesystem type for root, the install completes AND will properly mount any xfs filesystem once the pivot_root completes, making its kernel modules available. -- ************* Jim Lieb Wild Open Source Inc.
