Actually, this was in Fedora 11. Rawhide is a bit too raw at present to test things. A new release has just landed in koji with several improvements ( man dracut to see added kernel command line parameters ).. Download: F-11: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=114853 Rawhide: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=114854 Create your image with the debug module enable: # dracut -a debug /boot/debug-$(uname -r) $(uname -r) Add "rdshell" to the kernel command line, remove "rhgb" and "quiet" and boot the image. Once you are dropped to a shell do: # dmesg|grep dracut Add the output and your kernel command line to the bug report. There's also have been added a helper tool, which generates the kernel command line ( dracut-gencmdline ) Could you retest in with that version and report back thank you.. used wget to get dracut from koji.... 2009-07-18 23:13:16 (93.5 KB/s) - `dracut-0.5-1.fc11.x86_64.rpm' saved [71927/71927] [kunkelc@P5K-EWIFI Fedora]$ sudo rpm -Uvh dracut-* Preparing... ########################################### [100%] 1:dracut ########################################### [100%] [kunkelc@P5K-EWIFI Fedora]$ su - Password: [root@P5K-EWIFI ~]# dracut -a debug /boot/debug-$(uname -r) $(uname -r) W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/ql8100_fw.bin for module qla2xxx.ko W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/ql2500_fw.bin for module qla2xxx.ko W: Possible missing firmware /lib/firmware/aic94xx-seq.fw for module aic94xx.ko E: Failed to install strace [root@P5K-EWIFI ~]# Looks like strace is not installed on your system install strace and try again..

However, without -a debug, dracut now works!! Booted normally (at least it looks like it.) $ dmesg | grep dracut dracut: Starting plymouth daemon dracut: Scanning for dmraid devices dracut: no raid disks dracut: Scanning devices sda12 sdc2 sdc9 sdd2 sdd5 sde10 sdf15 sdf7 for LVM volume groups VolGroup02 dracut: Reading all physical volumes.

I guess this bz can be closed. |
Created attachment 350450 [details] grub.conf, fstab, /proc/mdstat, dm tree Description of problem: dracut drops to a shell after numerous Mount: you must specify the filesystem type. then: Bug in initramfs /init deleted. Dropping to a shell. Good luck. sh: cannot set terminal process group (-1): Inappropriate ioctl for device sh: no job control in this shell Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): [root@P5K-EWIFI ~]# rpm -q dracut dracut-0.3-1.fc11.x86_64 [root@P5K-EWIFI ~]# dracut -v -f --omit debug /boot/dracut-2.6.29.5-191.fc11.x86_64 2.6.29.5-191.fc11.x86_64 How reproducible: every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. create dracut image, add to grub.conf 2. boot system 3. Actual results: error as above Expected results: normal boot Additional info: I don't have a serial setup, so hand transcribed screen msgs. Also, I have a raid10, raid5 and raid container that dracut messes with causing me to have to rebuild the arrays. The arrays are not being used right now, but dracut insists on trying to start them improperly.
