Subject: cdrom: the kernel-driver/module megaraid isn't working correctly
Package: debian-installer
Severity: important
Justification: breaks the whole system
version: n/a: daily-build Debian GNU/LINUX testing "Etch" - Official
Snapshot i386 NETINST Binary-1 20070112-09:17
*** Please type your report below this line ***
We're using a HP Netserver LT6000r. After having installed the
debian-etch base system correctly, I tried to boot our new system. But
during boot, the megaraid driver fails. The following lines are printed:
megaraid: Aborting-1 cmd=12 <c=0 t=0 l=0>
megaraid: Aborting-1[7d], fw owner.
#//takes about 5-10 minutes
Done.
Begin: Mounting root file system... ...
Begin: Running /scripts/local-top ...
Done.
Begin: Waiting for root file system... ...
Done.
Check root= bootarg cat /proc/cmdline
or missing modules, devices: cat /proc/modules ls/dev
Alert! /dev/sda5 does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
BusyBox v1.1.3 (Debian 1:1.1.3-3) Built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
/bin/sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
(initramfs)
#//now some information
(initramfs) mount
none on /sys type sysfs (rw)
none on /proc type proc (rw)
udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw)
during installation I created a 1 gb partition for / and a 250mb
partition for /boot. grub shows up, boots the kernel until the above
written message appears.
So we can't make any use of this server. We're even unable to mount a
cd, because most of the important system-parts is missing.

We are closing this installation report for one of the following
reasons:
- it was reported with a pre-lenny version of Debian
Installer.
- indications in the installation report give the feeling that
the reported problem waslying in another software, unrelated to
D-I, which we can't easily identify.
- indications in the installation report suggest that it may have been
fixed in a more recent version of a D-I component
- it was successful and we forgot closing it..:-)
- it has no information we consider useful
The D-I team is currently in the process of cleaning out the old spool
of installation reports that haven't bene processed yet.
In case you think that the problem you reported has chances to be
still present, please reiterate your installation test with
a more recent image of D-I, if you're in position of doing this.
You'll find daily builds at
http://www.debian.org/devel/debian-installer. We recommend you choose
the netboot image, in the "daily builds section", then choose to
install "squeeze" when prompted.
If some problems are found, please report them with a new bug sent
against installation-reports.
Many thanks for your understanding and your help improving Debian,
past and present.
