CCISS Support in FC16

[James Schatzman]

Apparently I got my wires crossed slightly. The results when booting 3.1.0 and 3.3.2 are different. So... I followed the instructions on fedoraproject.org, modifying the kernel command line options to get debugging output.


3.3.2 - console output
--------------------------------------------------------------
... [see attachment]
Write protecting the kernel text: 5456k
Write protecting the kernel read-only data: 2124k
NX-protecting the kernel data: 4784K
init[1]  general protection ip:b771a419 sp:bffccc5c  error:0
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempting to kill init!
----------------------------------------------------------------------

At this point the system is locked up and there does not appear to be any way to retrieve  any init.log file. See the attachment for a screen dump of the final bits of the console output. Because this computer is located remotely I don't have any way to access more output than that.


3.1.0 console output
-----------------------------------------------------
....[lots of output]

dmesg | grep dracut >>> very many screenshots [ I have no way to save the output to a file]

The last 7 screens of this dmesg output are attached.

From the emergency shell, the output of

dmsetup ls --tree  --> No devices found

blkid  --> no output

blkid -c udev  -->  no output


2.6 Boot
---------------------------------------------------
Boots normally. Some data:

 dmsetup ls --tree
VolGroup00-LogVol01 (253:1)
 └─ (104:2)
VolGroup00-LogVol00 (253:0)
 └─ (104:2)
