klibc got fixed for sparc32 and a fixed version reached testing.
so closing this bug for now.

Bug#363344: initramfs-tools and HyperSPARC processor

2006-06-05 Thread Jurij Smakov

Hi,

That's what I'm currently getting on my sparc32 box when booting 2.6.16 
using the initrd built with initramfs-tools:


Begin: Mounting root file system... ...
Begin: Running /scripts/local-top ...
Done.
/bin/fstype: /bin/fstype: 1: ELF+
 @: not found
/bin/fstype: /bin/fstype: 4: Syntax error: end of file unexpected 
(expecting ))

Begin: Running /scripts/local-premount ...
Done.
Usage: modprobe [-v] [-V] [-C config-file] [-n] [-i] [-q] [-b] [-o 
modname] modname [parameters...]

modprobe -r [-n] [-i] [-v] modulename ...
modprobe -l -t dirname [ -a modulename ...]
mount: Cannot read /etc/fstab: No such file or directory
Begin: Running /scripts/log-bottom ...
Done.
Done.
Begin: Running /scripts/init-bottom ...
mount: Mounting /root/dev on /dev/.static/dev failed: No such file or 
directory

Done.
mount: Mounting /sys on /root/sys failed: No such file or directory
mount: Mounting /proc on /root/proc failed: No such file or directory
Target filesystem doesn't have /sbin/init


BusyBox v1.1.3 (Debian 1:1.1.3-1) Built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
/ #

It looks like it tries to execute /bin/fstype as a script, instead of a 
binary which it is. If you have any ideas on how to fix it, please let me 
know.

Bug#363344: initramfs-tools and HyperSPARC processor

2006-04-18 Thread BERTRAND Joël

Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.59b
Severity: grave
Arch: sparc

It is impossible to build a ramfs image on a HyperSPARC 
workstation. I have try to install etch/sparc on a SS20 that runs with 
four HyperSPARC processors. When it boots, system hangs when it tries to 
load the ramfs image. If I replace HyperSPARC by SuperSPARC-II, I can 
restart the workstation without any trouble. I have tested some 
configurations and some differents sparc32 CPU's. The only combinaison 
that fails is ramfs created by initramfs-tools with HyperSPARC.


Regards,

JKB

please post the relevant messages.
are you dropped into a console?
are your devices created?

trave11er notified me of some sparc trouble,
but from aboves bug report i have no idea where they could come from.

does fstype work?
please post output of:
/usr/lib/klibc/bin/fstype  /dev/sda1 # please use your real root
cat /proc/cmdline
lsmod

merci beacoup pour vos explications.
sinon il m'est impossible de savoir ce qui ce passe.

Yes, I know ;-)

   It is impossible to build a ramfs image on a HyperSPARC 
workstation.


	I have done a mistake... I cannot use a ramfs image (I don't make ramfs 
images to boot my SS20).



please post the error when trying to build the initramfs?


	I cannot post any error because HyperSPARC is not stable enough with 
2.6 kernel. I only use kernels from debian repository or kernel in deb 
package I use for tests : 
http://www.wooyd.org/debian/kernels/linux-image-2.6.16-1-sparc32_2.6.16-6_sparc.deb


I have try to install etch/sparc on a SS20 that runs with 
four HyperSPARC processors. When it boots, system hangs when it tries to 
load the ramfs image.



please post the relevant messages.
are you dropped into a console?


	No. Only a panic message with bad magic number when kernel tries to 
mount ramfs image.


are your devices created?

	For these tests, I have installed two SuperSPARC-II in place of ROSS 
modules. I use a patched kernel (ESP and SMP patches):


hilbert:~# uname -a
Linux hilbert 2.6.17-rc1-patch-smp #4 SMP Tue Apr 18 16:34:12 CEST 2006

No, it does not... fstype is a sparcv9 executable !

hilbert:~# file /usr/lib/klibc/bin/fstype
/usr/lib/klibc/bin/fstype: ELF 64-bit MSB executable, SPARC V9, version 
1 (SYSV), statically linked (uses shared libs), stripped


	Even I kindly ask my SuperSPARC's, I think they cannot understand what 
they have to do...


	When I have installed initramfs-tools, I have installed the following 
packagesl:


- busybox (1.01-4)
- libklibc (1.2.4-1)
- klibc-utils (1.2.4-1)
- libvolume-id0 (0.089-1)
- udev (0.089-1)
- initramfs-tools (0.59b)


please post output of:

Don't forget kernel panics before it starts init.
