dokoBenC: ping04:50
BenCdoko: pong04:51
dokoBenC: is there a way to influence the order how scsi disks are enumerated? I have one on a 3ware controller, which is the first in BIOS setup, but comes as third in the system (the two sata disks are first and second)04:57
BenCdoko: it's all in how the kernel reports PCI devices to udev, which it in turn loads the controller drivers in that order04:58
BenCso it's all based on PCI ordering04:58
BenClspci will show you what you can expect04:59
BenCif the sata controller comes before the 3ware one, then there's not much can so other than blacklist the sata controller from initramfs and have it load from the base system05:00
dokonot nice ... the 3ware has the highest ID05:00
dokocan this blacklisting be done persistant (for upgrades)?05:01
Mithrandirdoko: you can't even be sure the ordering is consistent.  Why do you want to see the controllers in a particular order?05:01
dokoremove the sata disks at some point and still have a bootable system05:02
Mithrandiruse by-label or by-uuid?05:02
lamont__YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  _I_ _AM_ _INVINCIBLE_!!!!!!!!!!!!!!05:03
=== lamont__ uploads the new elilo so that we can toss initrd-tools
dokocould somebody please kick out this robot ;-P05:03
BenCsweet05:03
dokoMithrandir: in grub?05:04
BenClamont: so can ia64 and hppa go to initramfs now?05:04
lamont__just booted ia64 with initramfs05:04
Mithrandirdoko: grub is on the first drive the BIOS sees, you can't really change that.05:04
lamont__BenC: now, for extra credit... tell me what magic is missing on both ia64 and hppa to have the network card autodetect and configure like it does on the first-class architectures...05:04
dokoyes, but it has root=/dev/sda5 , so this should be changed to something else?05:05
lamont__BenC: and I'm just being blind today... can't see where that stupid question is coming from... (Install a boot block using the existing...)"05:08
lamont__that is, I can't see why the kernel postinst doesn't ask the same question with grub05:08
lamont__oh, wait.  that's sick.05:08
lamont__there's no /etc/grub.conf05:08
lamont__--> no question05:09
lamont__and no grub run.05:10
lamont__hrm.05:10
lamont__BenC: I think that kernel-package needs to be updated to use debconf.... and that really hurts to say that.05:10
BenClamont: PCI devices need a MODULE_DEVICE_TABLE()05:11
BenCthat will help udev to know which driver to load when it sees that PCI device id05:11
lamont__0000:00:0c.0 Ethernet controller: Digital Equipment Corporation DECchip 21142/43 (rev 41)05:13
lamont__that doesn't have a DEVICE_TABLE???05:13
lamont__0000:a0:03.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82540EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 02)05:13
lamont__I can believe that one's new enough not to.05:13
=== lamont__ reboots the box to see something
lamont__BenC: so, ia64 needs to depend elilo (>=3.6-1) and hppa/ia64 both need klibc-utils (>=1.1.16-1ubuntu1)05:16
lamont__and then the initrd-tools Depend can go away05:17
lamont__BenC: fresh boot shows eth0 present with a MAC addr, etc... but not configured.05:18
lamont__ifup eth0 and everything is happy05:18
lamont__so I think it's above the kernel...05:18
lamont__udevd[784] : get_netlink_msg: unable to receive kernel netlink message: No buffer space available05:18
lamont__I wonder if that's related... :-)05:18
lamont__ * Detecting and activating hardware...05:19
lamont__udevd[1726] : get_netlink_msg: unable to receive kernel netlink message: No buffer space available05:19
lamont__   ...done.05:19
dokoMithrandir grub lists root=/dev/sda5 as parameter, so this should be changed to something else?05:19
lamont__hrm... probably05:19
Mithrandirdoko: if you use root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/$uuid-of-fs05:19
lamont__and shortly after that:05:19
lamont__ * Loading modules...05:19
lamont__Linux Tulip driver version 1.1.13 (May 11, 2002)05:19
lamont__tulip0: no phy info, aborting mtable build05:19
lamont__tulip0:  MII transceiver #1 config 1000 status 782d advertising 01e1.05:19
lamont__eth0: Digital DS21143 Tulip rev 65 at 80001000, 00:10:83:7A:1F:35, IRQ 66.05:19
lamont__   ...done.05:19
BenClamont: that's a auto etho0 to /etc/network/interfaces05:22
lamont__BenC: right.  But I don't need that on i38605:22
lamont__because of this:05:23
lamont__mapping hotplug05:23
lamont__        script grep05:23
lamont__        map eth005:23
lamont__hence the "what magic is missing here" question05:23
lamont__or maybe it's not... :-(05:24
lamont__I just know that my i386, ppc, and amd64 boxen all autoconfig eth0, even without the 'auto eth0' in /etc/network/interfaces05:24
Mithrandirlamont__: autoconfiguration of networks is kinda broken in dapper now.05:25
lamont__Mithrandir: it didn't work in breezy either.05:26
lamont__Mithrandir: how soon will the known borkage be fixed?05:26
Mithrandirlamont__: ask scott05:26
lamont__BenC: can I leave fixing the kernel package depends to you?05:27
lamont__BenC: fwiw, klibc_1.1.16-1ubuntu1 is current everywhere but sparc, which is probably just an upload-not-done-yet thing05:29
BenCyeah, fabbione is away for awhile05:30
BenCI can do the kernel deps05:30
lamont__thanks05:30
BenCklibc is a initramfs-tools dep I think05:31
BenCit's not for linux-image-* or kernel-package05:31
infinitylamont__: I can bump the depends on klibc* in initramfs-tools for you.05:53
lamont__infinity: ah, yeah, that'd be the place, huh?05:58
lamont__infinity: or I can do it if you don't have an upload planned soon05:59
infinity<shrug>.. I have the source sitting right here.05:59
infinity(>= 1.1.16-1) should be fine, yes?06:00
infinity(so it can go back to Debian like that too)06:00
infinityUploaded.06:02

makxinfinity: the evms hooks landed directly in evms with latest debian upload :)07:07
makxi see that i need to sync to your repo for some nice arch support and copy_exec fixes.07:08
makxi'm still wondering why ubuntu's modprobe has "-Qs"?07:09
makxand i don't see that in our m-i-t..07:09
infinitymakx: I saw that.  Congrats.  I'll be merging that stuff in after my VAC.07:13
infinitymakx: With any luck, we're down to pretty much no diff, except for bugfixes and doc changes passing back and forth.07:13
infinity(and some usplash junk)07:13
