Package: linux-2.6 Version: 2.6.32-5 Severity: important
vserver_686-bigmem is not bigmem because the bigmem config file reference is missing in debian/rules.gen. IOW vserver_686-bigmem=vserver_686. You can verify this in the respective /boot/configs* of the two packages. Adding the bigmem config ref in rules.gen gives me the bigmem kernel I need, but I think rules.gen is generated by a script so the bug ultimately needs to be fixed upstream of this file? -- Package-specific info: ** Version: Linux version 2.6.32-trunk-vserver-686-bigmem (Debian 2.6.32-5) ([email protected]) (gcc version 4.3.4 (Debian 4.3.4-6) ) #1 SMP Sun Jan 10 09:10:46 UTC 2010 ** Command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-trunk-vserver-686-bigmem root=UUID=8c05ba16-4fe2-4ba6-bc50-2d078cf627a7 ro quiet ** Not tainted -- System Information: Debian Release: squeeze/sid APT prefers oldstable APT policy: (500, 'oldstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (100, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-trunk-vserver-686-bigmem (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages linux-image-2.6.32-trunk-vserver-686-bigmem depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.28 Debian configuration management sy ii initramfs-tools [linux-initra 0.93.4 tools for generating an initramfs ii module-init-tools 3.11-1 tools for managing Linux kernel mo Versions of packages linux-image-2.6.32-trunk-vserver-686-bigmem recommends: ii firmware-linux-free 2.6.32-5 Binary firmware for various driver ii libc6-i686 2.10.2-5 GNU C Library: Shared libraries [i Versions of packages linux-image-2.6.32-trunk-vserver-686-bigmem suggests: pn grub | lilo <none> (no description available) pn linux-doc-2.6.32 <none> (no description available) Versions of packages linux-image-2.6.32-trunk-vserver-686-bigmem is related to: pn firmware-bnx2 <none> (no description available) pn firmware-bnx2x <none> (no description available) pn firmware-ipw2x00 <none> (no description available) pn firmware-ivtv <none> (no description available) pn firmware-iwlwifi <none> (no description available) ii firmware-linux 0.22 Binary firmware for various driver ii firmware-linux-nonfree 0.22 Binary firmware for various driver pn firmware-qlogic <none> (no description available) pn firmware-ralink <none> (no description available) -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
