Any clue? > Is this issue still present in the latest -git? Sorry, got sidetracked by other stuff. Still no boot with 2.9.20-rc1 and -rc2, and none of the kernels I tried in between. initrd is sane (the only differences between the one built for working 2.6.19.1 and broken 2.6.20-rc2 are among the modules themselves). What I did was: cd /tmp mkdir ird-$version cd ird-$version zcat /boot/initrd-$version.img | cpio -i and then "diff -Nur ird-$1 ird-$2". Now to teach diff(1) to compare devices reasonably... Tried latest from Fedora rawhide (mkinitrd-6.0.6-1), no boot. initrd is huge, so I went back to mkinitrd-5.1.19-1. -- Dr. Horst H. von Brand User #22616 counter.li.org Departamento de Informatica Fono: +56 32 2654431 Universidad Tecnica Federico Santa Maria +56 32 2654239 Casilla 110-V, Valparaiso, Chile Fax: +56 32 2797513 - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
