I'm having a problem with 2.6.36-rc8+ on HP PARISC machine (HP 9000
RP3410) where I intend to wait for SCSI enumeration during boot before
LVM2 kicks in and attempts to activate the root volume. I modprobe
scsi_wait_scan in the initramdisk before lvm2 script is run. However
the
modprobe doesn't wait. I'm on Debian testing, fwiw.
If you're interested in helping, the best thing you could do is back
up to a kernel that works and then try to track down what commit broke
the wait scan. It's a bit tedious, but fairly easy.
Yeah, I know. However a kernel rebuild takes nearly 2 hours on that
machine so it may be a couple of months before I find the commit ;-)
I'll see if I can come up with an automated process for that.
Hi Michal,
I'd propose that you use a cross-compiler (i686 to hppa) instead.
Then you can TFTP-boot the built kernel from your PC.
This is what I do, and it speeds up everything a lot and it's not too
hard to set it up.
