Description

This bug is fixed in 2.6.22.1-41.fc7, where we re-enabled /proc/ide. Reopening and assigning to yaboot. Although this is 'fixed' in the kernel, we could actually make ofpath work without relying on /proc/ide, and this would help people who are currently running the 'broken' kernels and whose systems will be rendered unbootable when they attempt to upgrade to the point where their 'working' kernel is removed. We should update yaboot, then make the new kernels require the updated yaboot. Created attachment 161107 [details]
make ofpath not require /proc/ide
User pnasrat's account has been closed Note that I am seeing this very problem with current rawhide kernels as well. This results in never rebooting into new kernels... yaboot only sees the old ones, since ybin didn't work when updating. The patch is comment #3 works fine here. This should be applied asap to f7 and devel. This message is a reminder that Fedora 7 is nearing the end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 7. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '7'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 7's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 7 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. If possible, it is recommended that you try the newest available Fedora distribution to see if your bug still exists. Please read the Release Notes for the newest Fedora distribution to make sure it will meet your needs: http://docs.fedoraproject.org/release-notes/ The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 7 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on June 13, 2008. Fedora 7 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
