I've just installed it and actually it doesn't boot bombing out on pivot_root. If booted without devfs first complains about /dev/console not existing. If booted with devfs enable the ALI IDE (alim15x3) driver is loaded (and present in /loadmodules). ide-detect is not present in /loadmodules by default, but adding it on the last line didn't help. This with - kernel-image-2.4.27-2-sparc64 2.4.27-2 - initrd-tools 0.1.77
Hi Luigi,Thanks for the detailed report. Unfortunately, I currently don't have any ideas on how to fix the problem. Same kernel images work fine on the systems with other IDE controllers, so the generic IDE stuff seems to be ok. Must be some weird interaction between it and ALI driver.
