From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.6) Gecko/20040404 Firefox/0.8 Description of problem: mkinitrd-3.5.19-1 has i2o_pci hard coded as a module. 2.6 kernel I2O no longer makes i2o_pci into a kernel module, so mkinitrd fails. This results in /boot containing no initrd image and installation of new kernels fail, as grubby aborts adding the new kernel to the menu when mkinitrd fails. No module i2o_pci found for kernel 2.6.5-1.319smp, aborting. --- mkinitrd.orig 2004-04-14 00:15:31.170358346 -1000 +++ mkinitrd 2004-04-14 00:15:54.134869232 -1000 @@ -103,7 +103,6 @@ # special cases if [ "$modName" = "i2o_block" ]; then findmodule i2o_core - findmodule i2o_pci modName="i2o_block" elif [ "$modName" = "ppa" ]; then findmodule parport Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): mkinitrd-3.5.19-1
Did something to get the same effect but without the side-effect of breaking 2.4 for 3.5.21
An upcoming upstream kernel patch will completely remove i2o_pci. Will this break anything wrt mkinitrd? If not then we can close this bug.
