Some *possibly* better way to fix this error message : * What I have done :
- boot from the latest linux kernel version installed on my system (2.6.32-32) * The highly probable reason why this fix the error boot message : - I, previously, upgraded both dmsetup + dmraid + libdmraid and linux kernel (to the latest version available for my original lucid 10.04 ubuntu install) - *BUT* I switched back grub to booting, by default, with original kernel version 2.6.32-21 => So, my conclusion, is that there was a conflict between linux kernel (mainly dm-raid45 module ?) and dmraid tools / libs, leading to unpredictable situation * Possible fix : - insure to have linux kernel and dmraid tools in compatible versions - eg. either original fresh installed versions - or all ones upgrade to latest possible version suitable for your ubuntu distribution * Anyway, in my situation : - both have fixed all error message of type "inotify_add_watch ... no such directory" - *AND* the extra boot delay (traced by dmesg / syslogd) * My software config : - Ubuntu 10.04 x64 - Linux kernel 2.6.32-21 + 2.6.32-32 - dmraid 1.0.0-rc16-4.1 - libdmraid 1.0.0-rc16 - dmsetup 2:1.02.39-1ubuntu4.1 * My hardware config : - AMD64 opteron - 1 internal PATA hdd - 1 faked RAID-0 of 2 SATA hdds with nvidia driver - 1 faked RAID-0 of 2 SATA hdds with jmicron driver * Note : - I don't know if those solutions and my situation are exactly matching this bug report, but, if not, I'm sure my message will be redirected to a more suitable others bug report. - I hope not, because this was the top ranked bug report when I looked for "inotify_add_watch ... no such directory" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/581566 Title: udevd inotify_add_watch no such directory error for physical volumes To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/dmraid/+bug/581566/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
