ar2ro: can you please upload a dmesg from the working setup, bug 84964
is related to jmicron pata/sata controllers (I have one on my Gigabyte
GA-965P-DS3P motherboard) however your lspci doesnt appear to indicate
any jmicron hardware - I have checked the attachment to comment 25 but I

Mark: No, I didn't disable the floppy, I'll try it a bit later today. I
did boot without the quiet and splash options, but it scrolls damn fast
during the boot so I can't really keep up with all those messages, and I
don't know how to scroll back up once I'm in the initramfs prompt. I did

limited.
I am not sure if `dmesg` will work from the busybox prompt, it is

If dmesg
dmesg doesn't work under busybox, I already tried that. I made a few

I get it. I attached the few LQ photos I made, though they won't be much
help

drive, but fails and ends in initramfs prompt when booted from my DVD drive.
2. I tried looking through the messages as far as I could go, and there was
*no*
Mainboard: GA-965P-DS3P
This should be fixed in a daily build.

master ar2ro: have you tried disabling your floppy drive in bios to
reduce the console spew? so you can see what is actucally happening.
