** Description changed: Ubuntu 5.10 Preview experiences a system panic w/ I2O based raid controler at kernel boot after controller is detected. Current controller that this is experienced on is a Adaptec 2400a Hardware Raid (IDE). I do not have any other I2O based controllers on which to test this. 5.4 did not experience this (we currently are using it), so this must be a regression in the preview version. + + Details for hw-detect dapper proposed update: + + The installer offers a menu of disk drivers when disks are not + automatically detected. This list fails to include the drivers from + drivers/message/fusion and drivers/message/i2o (mpt* and i2o_*). Thus, + users of these devices have no obvious manual fallback if automatic + detection fails. + + The bug was addressed in hw-detect 1.33 (in edgy) by adding these + directories to the list of directories to be searched for drivers to + offer, and adding a guard in case either directory doesn't exist. + + You can reproduce this bug by removing the kernel module responsible + for your disk from the running installer before it has a chance to load + it (be quick!), and looking at the list of disks offered. Alternatively, + it might be easier to boot in VMware with no disks attached. + + I haven't yet thought of any regression possibilities here, but they + ought to be limited to the path where no disks were automatically + detected.
