Bug#236423: discover: sprays lots of daunting error messages during boot
Package: discover
Version: 1.5-1.4.3
Severity: normal
Hi,
I'm doing test installs of d-i, and one of the points of feedback I had
was that on my system, when discover ran during the boot of the newly
installed system, it sprayed a lot of daunting looking error messages.
For me, this is only a minor inconvenience in that it blows away my
scrollback buffer, so I can't review the whole bootup, but for a newbie,
it could be quite alarming.
What I've done to reproduce this is run discover again, after bootup.
This is the output from running discover:
Detecting hardware: agpgart eepro100 es1370 i810_rng ich2rom ide-scsi
usb-uhci
Loading agpgart module.
Loading eepro100 module.
Loading es1370 module.
Loading i810_rng module.
/lib/modules/2.4.24-1-686/kernel/drivers/char/i810_rng.o: init_module:
No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters,
including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
/lib/modules/2.4.24-1-686/kernel/drivers/char/i810_rng.o: insmod

and this is the dmesg output (which is what goes all over the console
during boot):
