Description Christopher Blizzard 2001-09-12 01:21:52 EDT

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.

Comment 1 Bill Nottingham 2001-09-12 13:32:20 EDT

I really have no idea what could be trying to autoload this. Arjan, any ideas?

Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2001-09-26 11:17:26 EDT

Please attach /etc/fstab.

Comment 4 Bill Nottingham 2002-01-24 23:23:15 EST

Really late response:

Does this still happen?

Comment 5 Arjan van de Ven 2002-01-25 04:13:43 EST

I *really* *really* don't think you have an mcdx cdrom drive......

Comment 6 Christopher Blizzard 2002-01-25 12:11:40 EST

Yeah, I still see it occasionally.

Comment 7 Bill Nottingham 2005-04-05 15:53:10 EDT

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.
