Do you have the loop module built/loaded? Yes, the loop module has been built, but now I remember, the last time that this happened I figured out that the module had not loaded, and modcomp fixed the problem |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040510 Description of problem: mkinitrd reports "All of your loopback devices are in use." when in fact none are. The error happens because the code LODEV=$(echo findlodev | /sbin/nash --quiet) returns nothing. The problem is repeatable for a given boot-up, and generally goes away when I reboot. Kernel is stock 2.6.6, built locally; problem has occurred with prior 2.6.x versions. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mkinitrd-3.5.22-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.execute mkinitrd 2.observe failure 3.confirm echo findlodev | /sbin/nash --quiet Actual Results: %echo findlodev | /sbin/nash (running in test mode). Red Hat nash version 3.5.22 starting % Expected Results: /dev/loop? Additional info:
