KeybukBenC, mjg59, Mithrandir, etc.: just had a thought;  ProbeForRootFilesystem won't work with lvm/md/evms/etc.04:39
mjg59Keybuk: Mm?04:39
Keybukno /dev/disk/by-uuid for those04:40
fabbionegreat thinking :)04:41
fabbionesame as i had when we discussed by-uuid at UBZ :P04:41
mjg59Keybuk: Don't lvm and md and uuids on the partitions?04:41
Keybukmjg59: we'd end up mounting the actual partition, not the volume group04:42
mjg59Keybuk: ?04:43
mjg59I mean, don't they have uuids to signify which disks are parts of which sets?04:43
Keybukno idea04:43
mjg59Which is how the old autostart stuff worked04:44
Keybuknone of them are new-world-order-compliant (they make their own device nodes)04:44
mjg59Sorry, I'm (again) not seeing what awkwardness this leads to04:44
Keybukwell, they only exist as /dev/dm/blahblahblah04:44
Keybukno /dev/disk/by-uuid/* for it04:45
mjg59Oh! You mean the kernel is just being shit?04:45
Keybukso it's a whole class of filesystem we can't do mount-by-uuid for04:45
Keybukright04:45
mjg59Rather than there being any fundamental problem. Right, ok.04:45
Keybukyeah, it doesn't block uuid for anything else04:45
mjg59But the aim of having uuids for fs mounting is only because there's the potential for the device nodes to change, which isn't true for lvm and so on04:45
KeybukI have lvm and friends04:46
Keybukhate04:46
Keybuknot have04:46
KeybukH A T E04:46
KeybukI wish to rupture their collective colons with my engorged genetalia04:46
fabbioneKeybuk: get them right.. we are going to have a lot of -server installs on raid/lvm :)04:46
Keybukfabbione: I've so far avoided touching them at all04:47
Keybukwhich in theory means they have a better chance of working than anything I do touch <g>04:47
fabbioneKeybuk: i know.. i mean.. don't break more than it is now ;)04:47
KeybukI think it broke because of the mods made to initramfs this morning post the ide-generic discussion04:47
KeybukI made the "wait" critical path for everything04:47
Keybukrather than just definitely-scsi-subsystem stuff04:48
Keybukso suddenly we waited for /dev/device-mapper or /dev/dm/ or whatever to turn up ... before we ran lvm, evms, etc.04:48
KeybukI've moved the wait to local-top so it comes after those now04:48
fabbioneKeybuk: ok.. it's installing right now the ubuntu2104:49
fabbionefrom people..04:49
fabbioneKeybuk: rebooting right now04:51
=== fabbione gets ready to enjoy 4 seconds of silence
KeybukAWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGHA!04:53
fabbioneKeybuk: it's still waiting04:57
fabbioneBegin: Mounting root file system... ...04:57
fabbioneBegin: Running /scripts/local-top ...04:57
fabbioneBegin: Waiting for root file system... ...04:57
Keybukhmm04:57
Keybukthat's odd04:58
Keybukit fiiixed it for hunger05:05
Keybukconsole me up, I guess05:05
fabbioneKeybuk: sure.. just a minute05:06
fabbionei want to get my snack first05:06
KeybukI think I'll probably just put that while loop into initramfs itself05:06
Keybukbecause it is the sux0r05:07
MithrandirBenC: do you have a useful way to track down why a kernel fails to boot without acpi=off?07:07

JuHi all !10:58
JuI'm on dapper and uname -v gives me : #1 SMP PREEMPT  I didn't ask for a smp enabled kernel, linux-image-686 only here (is it the good place for this question ?)11:00
mjg59Ju: That's fine11:01
mjg59On a single CPU system, the SMP instructions will be rewritten11:01
Juthere won't be any loss of performance, even small ? (for my personnal info)11:02
mjg59Nothing that can be measured, no11:02
Juso package x and x-smp will merge ?11:03
mjg59Yes11:04
Juok great, thanks for the info11:05
