Description of Problem: When booting my machine I get an error after the part that says "Checking root filesystem. Here's a transcription of the error: [01:24:55] <blizzard> mcdx.o: init_module: input/output error [01:25:25] <blizzard> Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters [01:25:39] <blizzard> mcdx.o: insmod block-major-20 failed How Reproducible: Every time. Addition Information: I only have two SCSI cdroms attached to the machine. No other cdroms are present.
I really have no idea what could be trying to autoload this. Arjan, any ideas?
Please attach /etc/fstab.

Really late response: Does this still happen?
I *really* *really* don't think you have an mcdx cdrom drive......
Yeah, I still see it occasionally.
Closing bugs on older, no longer supported, releases. Apologies for any lack of response. I honestly have no idea how this could occur, and we didn't get any other reports of this.
