Bug#339941: Yaird does not include needed bootup module (gdth.ko)
Package: linux-image-2.6.14-2.k7
Version: linux-image-2.6.14-2-k7 2.6.14-3
This version of the kernel appears to have switched to yaird to make
initrds. It does not correctly detect and include the 'gdth.ko' kernel
module on one of my servers. gdth.ko is the ICP Vortex family of SCSI
controllers, and the boot device for the server in question.
The system will boot fine if I manually use mkinitrd to make the ramdisk
the old way. I do think I had to tweak mkinitrd to do this... I think I
had to set it to 'most' from 'some'.
I'm including a file listing.... the 'badinitrd' directory is the yaird
image. The 'goodinitrd' directory is the (working) mkinitrd image.
