Bug#445688: Bug cause identified
By combining the error messages I get and looking at the initramdisk runs, I have found the problem is that the scripts call modpobe -Qb, with a capital q instead of a small q. Modprobe doesn't recognise this, so doesn't load the modules. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/src/initramfs-tools$ egrep modprobe -r scripts/ | egrep Q | wc -l 0 yes modprobe -Q is an ultra silent ubuntu extension and has never been submitted upstream. anyway newer modprobe sets early in init MODPROBE_OPTIONS, so there shouldn't be the need to specify them anywhere else. regards -- maks -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

[ please keep the bug report on cc, that is not private conversation, cool thanks ] On Mon, 08 Oct 2007, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: It's /scripts/init-premount Both the PS3 script and the thermal script have this error. However, this has not helped, and the initrd still doesn't boot. i'm sorry but your initramfs-tools is not from debian, we _never_ shipped with an modprobe -Q argument in those boot scripts. check the following on any debian initramfs-tools release: egrep -r modprobe /usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/init-premount/ also to diagnose your error i would need the actual error output and btw yaird is not supported, for initramfs debugging see - http://wiki.debian.org/InitramfsDebug It tells me that it acpi_pm has been installed, then stalls. The initrd generated by yaird boots the ystem, but my usb devices, so I am counting on an improvement of this. You may wish to know that I switched to Debian from Feisty using dist-upgrade, and udev didn't get upgraded. i see that is the explanation, so you'd need to reinstall a bunch of stuff in that case. apt-get --reinstall install initramfs-tools. but i'm sorry cross distro changing is not supported, you are pretty much on your own in that case. i'd recommed using debian-installer to get a clean root on your swap or such for a start, see daily build images - http://www.at.debian.org/devel/debian-installer/ best regards -- maks -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
