Re: mkliveinitrd bug

2009-02-09 Thread Marco Pesenti Gritti
Here are the problems I found so far:

* console completely screwed up, which makes debugging a pain.
* jffs2 related kernel trace while booting, does not seem to break things.
* Network related kernel panic at the end. Sometimes halt the system,
sometimes it doesn't.
* X does not start for some reason.

All in all we seem in a pretty bad shape :P Maybe setting up nightly
builds will encourage someone with more kernel experience then me to
take a look.

 Awesome, Marco!  Thanks so much!

 As Peter suggested, I should look at getting nightly builds set up soon.
 Would you like to share infrastructure so that the build run spits out
 SoaS images at the same as F11-XO images?  If so, any preference for
 whether to do it on an OLPC machine or on something like sunjammer?

Sharing infra on this makes a lot of sense to me. Personally I have no
preference about where to host it. Bernie, what do you think? Is this
something we can host? I guess we will need a rawhide box/VM.

mkliveinitrd bug

2009-02-07 Thread Marco Pesenti Gritti
Hello,

I tracked down why rawhide does not boot from nand. Details in this bug report:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=484496

I'm attaching the patch/hack I used to make it boot, in the case
someone wants to give it a try.

Next issue is the major console screw up... I have no clue about that
one really. I will try to upload a booting image so that hopefully a
kernel hacker will take look.
