Mike Actually, it can be. Let's imagine the absurd case where Mike kernel-image-x blacklists eepro100 and kernel-image-y Mike blacklists e100, we have a system with no intel ethernet pro Mike 100 support. That won't happen for this particular module Mike set, but i'm pretty sure such case could happen some day. Shouldn't it depend on what kernel is booted rather then what kernels are installed? That's what i was implying. It *should*. The thing is that it's not the way hotplug works. Mike

We were fine without it before ;) Would blacklisting it in hotplug be a solution? I had only trouble with ub so far on a power book. Will try that. Interesting though that people I know with this problem are using powerpc. Is this aspecific to this arch? No, I hat lots of trouble with ub on i386 too. -- Guido
Bug#283919: initrd-tools: Should warn if root device is not found
Package: initrd-tools Version: 0.1.74 Severity: wishlist I'd like to see some warning, if /proc/sys/kernel/real-root-dev is equal 0. That means no root device was found and the message would be very helpful. I've spend an hour trying to reboot the kernel 2.6 with root=/dev/ida/c0d0p2 parameter. I didn't know the kernel doesn't understand such parameter and I've found the real reason by my own inspection in initrd's mini-shell. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (900, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.9-1-686 Locale: LANG=pl_PL, LC_CTYPE=pl_PL (charmap=ISO-8859-2) Versions of packages initrd-tools depends on: ii coreutils [fileutils] 5.2.1-2The GNU core utilities ii cpio 2.5-1.1GNU cpio -- a program to manage ar ii cramfsprogs 1.1-6 Tools for CramFs (Compressed ROM F ii dash 0.5.1-3The Debian Almquist Shell ii fileutils 5.2.1-2The GNU file management utilities ii util-linux2.12h-3Miscellaneous system utilities -- no debconf information

Re: Simultaneous loading of e100 and eepro100 by hotplug
Apart from the issue Jerome mentions where some older hardware isn't supported by e100 but is supported by eepr100, what if new kernels didn't build/provide eepro100 and instead eepro100 was aliased to e100, or do they have incompatible parameters? I am quite confortable with not including the eepro100 driver as it is being debricated upstream. What if the PCI ID associations in the kernel for eepro100 and e100 were changed so that a card is only associated with the module it works (best) with? The only issue I see with this approach is collecting the necesary data... */ Christoffer Sawicki [EMAIL PROTECTED]

One idea would be to remove all PCI IDs from eeproo100 and only allow assigning cards to it why the dynamic pci device ids through sysfs approach
