Bug#826564: i686 memory hotplug

2016-06-06 Thread Matus UHLAR - fantomas

Source: linux
Version: 4.5.5-1

the i686 kernels as compiled don't support memory hotplug, which is quite
dissatisfying for us.

please compile i686 kernel with options for memory hotpluging anfd
unplugging.

CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_MANUAL=y
MEMORY_HOTPLUG=y
MEMORY_HOTREMOVE=y

Bug#535331: possible reason

2009-07-02 Thread Matus UHLAR - fantomas
Looking at differencies, there seems to be key differente between etch's
2.6.18 and 2.6.24 kernels' postinst scripts.

the variable $loader gets initialized to lilo in 2.6.18, and to empty
value in 2.6.24. I don't see any way to (preferrably) autodetect or
configure this variable according to current system configuration.

It would be nice if we could configure the loader manually and the postinst
script could autodetect which loaders are installed, call the loader if
needed (lilo does need, grub may not) and optionally comply if it finds more
than one and none is configured (possible mistake)

I think I am able to code this in perl, if anyone helps me with it...

Bug#535331: lilo not run after install/upgrade

2009-07-01 Thread Matus UHLAR - fantomas
Package: linux-image-2.6.26-2-686
Version: 2.6.26-17

Hello,

after installing linux image the lilo is not being called, which results
into system not being bootable after upgrade. I've tried without
kernel-img.conf also with it, containing do_bootloader = Yes, nothing
helped.

If lilo isn't supported (oh, please, no), it should be mentioned
somewhere...

Re: Mounting UFS under Linux with R/W

 The problem isnbsp; -nbsp; mounting UFS under Linux and to provide
 both - R and W options.

npsb? Where did you edit this mail?

 So far I have found that R is easily implemented but Write option is
 quite dangerous -
 it harms the filesystem.
 
 Isnbsp; there yet a correctsolution on any new Kernel?

man mount, see 'ufs' section.

 /dev/sdb1 on /media/usb0 type vfat 
 (rw,noexec,nodev,sync,noatime,gid=46,dmask=0007,fmask=0117)
 
 this gives me 128KB/s. When I unmount it, mount it manualy (no sync), copy
 15MB of data and issue

if you copy data using windows and then click on eject device (or whatever
is the correct name), how much does it take?

Maybe 128KB/s is the real write speed and higher speeds are get only by
write-caching

Bug#336183: linux-source-2.6.12: Partitions not detected on Software RAID

 RAID
 To: Debian Bug Tracking System [EMAIL PROTECTED]
 
 Starting 2 (or 1) single device RAID arrays with following script does not
 result in the partitions being detected, and therefore they do not appear
 in sysfs or /dev.
 
 losetup /dev/loop6 gpt.img
 losetup /dev/loop7 mbr.img
 
 mdadm -A -a /dev/md_d0 /dev/loop6
 mdadm -A -a /dev/md_d1 /dev/loop7

Since when are RAID or loop devices supposed to have partitions?
(did I miss something?)

 Using the w command in fdisk causes the partitions to be detected.

This is probably caused by fdisk which forces kernel to search for them, and
it does it even if the device shouldn't contain partitions.

Re: config.gz files

 why the debian kernel-packages don't provide the config file
 via /proc?

For 2.4 kernels, it requires patch that is not in debian distribution.

Also, as some people already mentioned it, debian kernels come with
/boot/config-version, so you do not need to have this (even if you loose
the file, you may extract it from the package, and it doesn't make your
kernel bigger.

If you compile kernel package by yourself, you may include this.

 Please CC me, I am not on this list.

It seems that you are using mutt. Please set up 'lists' and 'subscribe'
