Modified:
trunk/packages/initramfs/init.c
Log:
Reverted r1387: completely wrong, as evidenced by the 6.1.1-4 CD.
Removed unused "buf" variable from init.c
Again, please explain what was completely wrong about it. I don't know
what you're referring to when you say 'as evidenced by the 6.1.1-4 CD'.
This change was aimed at solving the "boot process hangs on i586" problem, see
http://archive.linuxfromscratch.org/mail-archives/livecd/2006-January/002920.html.
But it didn't help, see
http://archive.linuxfromscratch.org/mail-archives/livecd/2006-February/003068.html
(that's what I mean by "as evidenced by the 6.1.1-4 CD"). And the reasoning
Brian gave was indeed wrong, as I outlined in
http://archive.linuxfromscratch.org/mail-archives/livecd/2006-February/003067.html.
Also, such low-level oopses as indicated in Trac usually indicate massive data
corruption in hardware, so I no longer trust any bug reports from Brian until he
runs memtest86 (he didn't).
