Package: initramfs-tools Version: 0.84 Followup-For: Bug #387909 Hello,
After installing from a debian etch installer (netinstall, daily built), which i got of http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/daily-builds/daily/arch-latest/hppa/iso-cd/debian-testing-hppa-netinst.iso, I was unable to boot my HPPA pc (HP B132L). I got the message: ALERT! /dev/sda5 does not exist. Dropping to a shell! In this case /dev/sda5 was supposed to be my "/". On #debian-boot, fjp advised me to put "lasi700" in the /etc/initramfs-tools/modules file, and run update-initramfs -u. Afterwards the system booted nicely. If more information is needed, please let me know. Kind regards, Dirk Van Hertem -- Package-specific info: -- /proc/cmdline root=/dev/sda5 HOME=/ console=ttyS0 TERM=vt102 palo_kernel=2/vmlinux -- /proc/filesystems ext2 cramfs ext3 udf iso9660 -- lsmod Module Size Used by isofs 41784 0 udf 111172 0 ipv6 302040 12 dm_snapshot 21596 0 dm_mirror 24052 0 dm_mod 70224 2 dm_snapshot,dm_mirror zalon7xx 39440 0 loop 17800 0 lasi_82596 28596 0 serio_raw 7716 0 psmouse 47848 0 sg 40636 0 sr_mod 21508 0 cdrom 43036 1 sr_mod ext3 167720 5 jbd 68756 1 ext3 sd_mod 23216 8 lasi700 3808 7 53c700 34924 1 lasi700 scsi_transport_spi 32032 2 zalon7xx,53c700 scsi_mod 160528 7 zalon7xx,sg,sr_mod,sd_mod,lasi700,53c700,scsi_transport_spi -- kernel-img.conf do_symlinks = yes relative_links = yes do_bootloader = no do_bootfloppy = no do_initrd = yes link_in_boot = yes -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: hppa (parisc) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.17-2-parisc Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages initramfs-tools depends on: ii busybox 1:1.1.3-3 Tiny utilities for small and embed ii cpio 2.6-17 GNU cpio -- a program to manage ar ii klibc-utils 1.4.27-1 small statically-linked utilities ii module-init-tools 3.2.2-3 tools for managing Linux kernel mo ii udev 0.100-2.2 /dev/ and hotplug management daemo initramfs-tools recommends no packages. -- no debconf information Disclaimer: http://www.kuleuven.be/cwis/email_disclaimer.htm -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
