| jhg_ | well, I copied the initrd.img from /boot and that still didn't fix the issue, so I am a bit mystified as to why one kernel can find root and the other cannot. | 13:13 |

| jhg_ | I suspect it is a .config difference resulting in the driver availability for the HP ProLiant DL360 Gen10 hardware. | 17:40 |
| jhg_ | Specifically, aacraid. | 17:44 |
| jhg_ | Are there any git repo mirrors? I am finding launchpad to be rather slow. | 18:07 |
| chiluk | jhg_: which kernel are you wanting to know about? | 20:27 |
| chiluk | nm ... reading backscroll. | 20:28 |
| jhg_ | chiluk: 4.18.0-rc2+ | 20:28 |
| chiluk | did you make oldconfig using the ubuntu config? | 20:29 |
| jhg_ | It smells like a driver. Looking for differences in .config for kernel build. I expect something to get baked into the ubuntu kernels which would make those work while my homemade kernel build does not (or has it as a module). | 20:29 |
| jhg_ | looking... need to finish checking out from launchpad git repo. =) | 20:30 |
| chiluk | jhg_: you might have better like running make oldconfig from one of the 4.15 kernels. | 20:30 |
| chiluk | jhg_: git clone --reference linux ... if you have a local clone of linus' tree | 20:30 |
| jhg_ | ah... that would save some time. | 20:31 |
| chiluk | yep.. | 20:32 |
| chiluk | and lots of disk space... | 20:32 |
| jhg_ | the list of drivers to look at is finite. lspci -k | grep module | awk '{print $3}' | uniq >> https://hastebin.com/ahaseqomes.rb | 20:32 |
| chiluk | make modules ; make modules install | 20:33 |
| chiluk | then rebuild your initramfs | 20:33 |
| chiluk | mkinitramfs | 20:33 |
| chiluk | just throwing out ideas here. | 20:34 |
| chiluk | sometimes a rubber duck can be useful. | 20:34 |
| chiluk | jhg_: if you don't need to be developing on a bleeding edge kernel you could be playing with the ubuntu trees... | 20:35 |
| chiluk | rubber ducking ->https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=huOPVqztPdc | 20:35 |
| jhg_ | =) | 20:36 |
| chiluk | jhg_: those are available http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/?q=ubuntu%2F | 20:37 |
| jhg_ | oh, one more thing: my custom kernels work in virtualbox, but not on the bare metal. | 20:37 |
| chiluk | that's probably because all the configs are set up to run on virtual machines without the need for modules. | 20:38 |
| jhg_ | which is why I suspect it's a .config driver issue. | 20:38 |
| jhg_ | right | 20:38 |
| chiluk | yep. | 20:38 |
| chiluk | alright sounds like you are on the right track... | 20:38 |
| jhg_ | thanks, chiluk! =) | 20:38 |
| chiluk | I don't always pay attention to this channel since I'm no longer full-time Ubuntu dev... so good luck. | 20:38 |
| jhg_ | chiluk: what are you up to these days? | 20:40 |
