=== kimo [n=ahmed@82.129.234.122] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
kimoGuys, I compiled a vanilla kernel, it boots ok, but can't find my / LVM partition (/boot is not on LVM)? any hint ?02:16
fabbioneyou need an initrd02:18
kimo? I have one 02:18
fabbioneself-compiled kernel -> no supportt02:18
kimoyeah I know ... I am looking for a friendly help :)02:18
fabbionethere might be 23092039 reasons why it can't find it02:18
zulhey fabbione 02:18
kimoplus, official kernel wont turn off my laptop which is killing me 02:18
fabbionemissing drivers, ba d initrd and s on..02:18
fabbionehi zul02:18
fabbionekimo: it's not really a matter of being friendly or not. It's just too much work to debug a custom.02:19
fabbionedid you make sure that your kernel support initrd?02:19
fabbionethat is loading the right one?02:19
fabbioneetc.02:19
fabbionecheck again the config02:19
fabbioneare lvm tools installed in the initrd? if so are they executed?02:20
kimofabbione: how do I check ?02:20
fabbionemanually.. one bit at a time02:20
kimono option for mkinitrd, to include lvm tools ?02:20
kimoI used the old .config from ubuntu02:21
infinitykimo: Don't use mkinird on kernels >> 2.6.12, use mkinitramfs.02:21
kimoinfinity: ! wow thnx02:21
kimoinfinity: any special option for lvm support ?02:22
infinitykimo: Better yet, make your kernels with make-kpkg, and it'll all be done magically for you in the kernel's postinst.02:22
kimoI used make0kpkg02:22
infinitykimo: If you have the lvm tools installed, lvm support "Just Works" in an initramfs.02:22
kimoI do have lvm tools & the official kernel does see my lvm partition!02:22
=== kimo is very low on battery ... I will come back later guys ..... thankssss
kimoany tips before my battery dies ?02:23
zulyes try reboot=h to your grub parameters or something like that02:23
infinitykimo: Just the above.02:23
zuland what infinity said02:24
kimoinfinity: I do have lvm tools, & used make-pkpkg. I will just try to rebuild mkinitramfs manually 02:24
infinitykimo: make-kpkg might require "--initrd" on the command line to add the initramfs magic to the package's postinst.02:24
=== infinity doesn't really recall.
infinitykimo: But calling mkinitramfs manually should do.02:25
kimook thanks for everything .... :)02:25
kimoI remember debian would drop me on busybox if it cant find / ?02:25
kimois this not in ubuntu 02:25
infinityIt will, IF you use mkinitramfs.02:26
infinitymkinitrd makes something ENTIRELY DIFFERENT.02:26
infinityAnd you don't want it anymore.  Purge initrd-tools.  Make it go away.02:26
kimohmm ... it seems somehow I am using mkinitrd02:26
kimothanks will do that 02:27
kimobye everyone ... thanks for the help02:28

zulBenC: is there gonig to be an update to sky2 for updates?07:45
BenClatest sky2 doesn't fix the problems, so not likely07:45
zulokie dokie ill keep a watch on it07:46
BenChmm...it might actually now that I look at the diff07:46
cjbinfinity: Hm.  Do you know what the deal with Fedora is?  I remember they use mkinitrd.07:48
cjb(But I don't remember whether it actually makes an initramfs.)07:48

crimsunBenC: sorry, my logic was reversed yesterday. free_irq() needs to be called before *iounmap().10:30
BenCcrimsun: Yeah, makes more sense now that I think about it too11:18
BenCotherwise there's a race where the irq handler can work on unmapped io11:18
