[06:39] <jfh> morning!
[16:23] <hbrueckner> xnox, hi... I have an update regarding problem of loading dasd or zfcp (s390-zfcp, s390-dasd modules)
[16:23] <xnox> hbrueckner, i am testing a local fix.
[16:23] <xnox> =)
[16:23] <xnox> hbrueckner, so my conclusion is that dasd/zfcp kernel modules are not loaded when dasd/zfcp steps run and hence they report "no bus/ nothing to activate"
[16:24] <xnox> then hw-detect/disk-detect runs, loads dasd/zfcp kernel modules and then bails as nothing is available and it does not re-run dasd/zfcp-config
[16:24] <hbrueckner> right... the point here is that it depmod -a behaves differently between ubuntu and debian
[16:24] <xnox> my plan is to add $ modprobe dasd_mod/zfcp after the depmod in s390-dasd/zfcp postinst
[16:24] <hbrueckner> depmod -a triggers device modprobing and causes the module to be loaded Debian
[16:25] <hbrueckner> the better approach would be to simply call: update-dev
[16:25] <xnox> but before the respective dasd-config/zfcp-config binaries are called.
[16:25] <xnox> how come depmod is different in ubuntu though?!

[16:26] <xnox> http://paste.ubuntu.com/ is a thing you know =) also you can do
[16:26] <xnox> $ git diff | pastebinit
[16:26] <xnox> and on ubuntu that pipes and publishes things on the paste.ubuntu.com =)
[16:26] <hbrueckner> .... if my systems would have access to the external network ;-)
[16:26] <xnox> hahaha
[16:26] <xnox> ok
[16:26] <xnox> i have no idea what update-dev is though =)
[16:26] <xnox> still worried that ubuntu's depmod -a is somehow bad.
[16:27] <hbrueckner> it is part of the debian-installer-utils to and a wrapper around udevadm --trigger and --settle
[16:27] <hbrueckner> update-dev actually is the --trigger
[16:28] <hbrueckner> yep .... I thinkt that depmod  is part of busybox... perhaps a slightly different busybox version or config
[16:30] <hbrueckner> xnox, I have to leave now... Thorsten might add some info to the LaunchPad these minutes
[16:30] <xnox> ack
