Bug#473877: linux-image-2.6.24-1-alpha-generic: fail to boot
Hi all, On Sat, 26 Apr 2008 15:02:57 -0700 (PDT), Gabriele Gorla wrote: Thanks Michael. Updating aboot to 1.0pre20040408-2 fixed the issue on both my xp1000 and my 164sx. I believe this bug can be closed unless Kohda-san still experiences some issues. I'm afraid I don't have enough time to do the fix at present but I don't object to close this bug. If there will remain any issue with me I'll reopen this or file another bug report. Gabriele (or anyone else), it will help me much if you teach me the practical fix you did. Is it correct to understand 1) install a new aboot 2) swriteboot /dev/sda bootlx (or an appropriate device name) Thanks for your help.

I understand you need output from serial console but I'm afraid it is not so easy as you think. I search enough infomation by googling etc. and if I can get bootlog, I'll report it here but I'm certain it will not happen in near future. In bug #473877, it seems I need to fiddle with swriteboot to boot with 2.6.24 (sigh).

Not yet. I'll try it later if possible. ok can you put them up somewhere, so that i can take a look if they look sane, before further debugging, also i'd need the output of sh -x mkinitramfs -o /tmp/foo I put all initrd.img-* and the output of mkinitramfs in http://www1.pm.tokushima-u.ac.jp/~kohda/alpha/ Thanks for your kind advices.

Bug#474670: initramfs-tools: [alpha] boot failure with linux-image-2.6.22-3-alpha-generic
Package: initramfs-tools Version: 0.91e Severity: important Hi, I encountered the following boot failure on my alpha machine. When linux-image-2.6.22-3-alpha-generic came into testing, my system failed to boot with the initrd.img generated by initramfs-tools but it still booted with the initrd.img generated by yaird so I suspect this is a bug of initramfs-tools. However, linux-image-2.6.24-alpha-generic failed to boot with initrd.img generated both initramfs-tools and yaird. The messages when it failed to boot were as follows: RAMDISK driver initialized: 16 RAM disks of 8192K size 1024 blocksize serio: i8042 KBD port at 0x60,0x64 irq 1 serio: i8042 AUX port at 0x60,0x64 irq 12 mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice EISA: Probing bus 0 at eisa.0 TCP sic registered NET: Registered protocol family 1 NET: Registered protocol family 17 Freeing unused kernel memory: 288k freed Loading, please wait...

If I read the aboot code correctly, there should be a message about bss cleaning and initrd loading. It looks like aboot themself dies here. Hmm, I'm not sure but, at least, there is no message refering to loading initrd. It looks boot failed before reaching to that stage. I intend to provide any necessary info but don't know how can I get more info. Thanks for your follow up.
