Hello group, > > About a week or two ago I seen a message reguarding a kernel runtime > error... can't modprobe binfmt. Didn't pay attention to it.. wished > I had. Kernel 2.3.12. > > Hints welcome. After I delved into this a bit farther, I learned the above is a bit ambiguous. I boot from a scsi partition with an initrd image and ram disk, standard stuff. Kernel finds the initrd image but fails to insmod the aic7xxx driver. Error message goes something like "failed to modprobe block-major-8" and "failed to modprobe binfmt-0000". I believe the initrd image that I am creating has the wrong magic number or something similar. I have been creating it the same way for all of the last kernel versions I've used. Has something changed or is there an updated copy of mkinitrd that I need to use? Are there other config switches to this kernel version I need to specify?
