Description Amitabha Roy 2004-10-17 21:55:56 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20041016
Firefox/0.10.1

Description of problem:
Booting up on a Fedora Core 3 Test 3 system with newest packages
from devel tree fails on an Athlon system. The version
of udev is 038-2 and I suspect that is the cause of the failure
(maybe it fails to make all the device nodes for the IDE hard disks?).

The error message is (only the noteworthy lines)

/sbin/udevstart exited abnormally

No volume groups found

mount: error 6 mounting ext 3

Kernel panic


This happens for kernel-2.6.8-1.624 and not for kernel-2.6.8-1.610

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.8-1.624

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot up using kernel-2.6.8-1.624
2.
3.
    

Actual Results:  Kernel panic, does not boot

Expected Results:  Should boot normally

Comment 1 Nils Philippsen 2004-10-17 22:11:17 UTC
This is regardless of the kernel -- I could reproduce this with
-1.541, -1.610 and -1.624 kernels. I suspect this is rather a dupe of
a recent udev bug (#136058).

*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 136058 ***

Comment 2 Amitabha Roy 2004-10-17 23:45:52 UTC
However, I *cannot* reproduce this with -1.610 or -1.541.
In fact, my uname -a tells me 

[root@localhost log]# uname -a
Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.8-1.610 #1 Tue Oct 12 17:32:34 EDT
2004 i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux

Whereas udev version is the same:

[root@localhost log]# rpm -qa | grep udev
udev-038-2
