[08:00] <cDlm> hi, anyone using dapper on sparc ?
[08:04] <cDlm> I just dist-upgraded from breezy on an Ultra 5, 2.6.15-17 doesn't load, 2.6.12 stops booting saying that /dev/hda1 doesn't exist
[08:37] <shinmen> cDlm: I have it on an U80, but haven't done upgrades in a while...
[08:38] <cDlm> dapper ?
[08:38] <cDlm> I will try the dapper install CD instead of upgrading
[08:39] <cDlm> I guess it's a problem with udev or something lke that
[08:49] <cDlm> duh
[08:49] <cDlm> even the install CD fails
[08:50] <cDlm> everything stops after "Remapping the kernel... done."
[08:51] <cDlm> nothing works (even STOP-A), I need to use the power supply switch
[09:31] <fabbione> known bug
[09:32] <fabbione> it's fixed in the next kernel
[09:32] <fabbione> it did sleep into 17.24 by mistake
[09:32] <fabbione> it will be fixed in the next upload
[09:32] <fabbione> it's an unbreakable loop when we pass the TLB from OBP to the kernel
[09:33] <cDlm> next upload means when ? days, weeks ?
[09:34] <fabbione> 2 days max
[09:35] <cDlm> ok, cool
[09:35] <fabbione> probably earlier than that
[09:35] <cDlm> I'm not in a hurry
[09:35] <fabbione> neither am i :)
[09:35] <cDlm> besides that, how does dapper works on sparc ?
[09:35] <fabbione> pretty good
[09:36] <fabbione> afaik at least
[09:36] <fabbione> i need to track down an issue with hald
[09:36] <fabbione> and find somebody to test X
[09:36] <cDlm> I'm just fed up with gentoo for my gateway/server
[09:36] <fabbione> as server it's rock solid :)
[09:36] <cDlm> but I need lighttpd and some recent stuff
[09:36] <cDlm> ...when the kernel boots ;)
[09:37] <fabbione> ehhe
[09:58] <fabbione> cDlm: you can try this kernel if you want:
[09:58] <fabbione> http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/niagara/
[09:58] <fabbione> that should work while you wait for the official one to hit archive
[09:58] <cDlm> in fact I'm playing with debian on the machine :}
[09:59] <fabbione> ok
[09:59] <fabbione> it's not the same kernel
[09:59] <fabbione> have fun :)
[09:59] <fabbione> i am back to enjoy my last 2 hours of holidays
[09:59] <cDlm> btw I tried to boot on the old (breezy) kernel, but it didn't load
[10:00] <fabbione> yes it won't
[10:00] <fabbione> new dapper userland needs at least .15 kernel
[10:00] <cDlm> ok
[10:00] <fabbione> that's the price you pay for running bleeding edge :)
[10:00] <cDlm> :)
[10:00] <lamont> <fabbione> new dapper userland needs at least .15 kernel
[10:00] <lamont> that explains why my 2.6.12 kernel died, eh?
[10:00] <fabbione> lamont: eh?
[10:00] <fabbione> lamont: ehhehe
[10:01] <fabbione> lamont: yes.. at least udev/initramfs/klibc and the booting stsuff
[10:01] <fabbione> glibc and the rest of userland is ok
[10:01] <lamont> well, the amusing part was that 2.6.12-10-686 booted just fine, while 2.6.12-10-amd64-generic didn't... I really need to grab a daily-live iso and figure out what's up.
[10:01] <fabbione> initramfs/initrd
[10:02] <fabbione> does that ring a bell?
[10:04] <fabbione> no actually
[10:04] <fabbione> .12 and .12?
[10:04] <fabbione> did you have a custom initrd?
[10:04] <fabbione> for one of them
[10:04] <fabbione> because my .12 initrd has been updated
[10:04] <fabbione> and so destroyed
[10:06] <lamont> yeah 12 and 12
[10:06] <lamont> nothing custom about it
[10:06] <lamont> other than the s/amd64/i386/g thing
[10:08] <fabbione> check the initrd timestamps?
[10:08] <fabbione> if they have been updated with the upgrade or not
[10:08] <fabbione> because something in the initrd does segafault on me
[10:08] <fabbione> (or did..)
[10:08] <fabbione> i mean with .12 on dapper userland
