Package: kernel-package Version: 8.111 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system
The libata driver uses scsi naming (e.g. /dev/sda) for SATA devices, but when making a menu.lst (grub configuration file), make-kpkg uses ATA naming (e.g /dev/hde) for such devices. When root partition is located on a SATA device, this causes a kernel panic at boot because root partiotion is not found by the bootloader. This problem ocured when running 2.4 kernel not using the libata driver, and building a 2.6 kernel with libata included. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.22-07sept03 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages kernel-package depends on: ii dpkg 1.10.25 Package maintenance system for Deb ii dpkg-dev 1.10.23 Package building tools for Debian ii gcc [c-compiler] 4:3.3.5-1 The GNU C compiler ii gcc-2.95 [c-compiler] 1:2.95.4-22 The GNU C compiler ii gcc-3.0 [c-compiler] 1:3.0.4-7 The GNU C compiler. ii gcc-3.3 [c-compiler] 1:3.3.5-5 The GNU C compiler ii gcc-3.4 [c-compiler] 3.4.2-2 The GNU C compiler ii make 3.80-9 The GNU version of the "make" util ii perl 5.8.4-3 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
