Problem booting guest with Linux 2.6.3x

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all!

I've compiled Linux 2.6.30.3 using the Debian way on guest Debian
GNU/Linux Lenny and trying to boot the guest with this kernel, the
bootstrapping is freeze on "Loading, please wait..." message.

In logs I don't get entries of the bootstrapping process with 2.6.30 (I
think it is because the process in itself didn't start). Can it be due
to a bug using 2.6.30.3 in guest with host KVM-88?

Also I was trying with kernel 2.6.31.2 compiled by myself and after to
wait for some time, I obtain the following thing:

  Booting 'Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.31.2-dgb'

root  (hd0,1)
 Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83
kernel  /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.31.2-dgb root=/dev/hda2 ro quiet console=tty0 console
=ttyS0,38400n8
   [Linux-bzImage, setup=0x3600, size=0x203480]
initrd  /boot/initrd.img-2.6.31.2-dgb
   [Linux-initrd @ 0x1f983000, 0x65c455 bytes]

Loading, please wait...
WARNING bootdevice may be renamed. Try root=/dev/sda2
Gave up waiting for root device.  Common problems:
 - Boot args (cat /proc/cmdline)
   - Check rootdelay= (did the system wait long enough?)
   - Check root= (did the system wait for the right device?)
 - Missing modules (cat /proc/modules; ls /dev)
ALERT! /dev/hda2 does not exist. Dropping to a shell!


BusyBox v1.10.2 (Debian 1:1.10.2-2) built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.

/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
(initramfs)


Nevertheless with Linux 2.6.26-2-amd64 stock kernel I did not have
problems. It would seem to be that at least with 2.6.31.2 the devices
cannot be loaded.

Thanks advance for your reply.

Regards,
Daniel
