Bug#342925: initramfs-tools: [sparc64] generated initrd fails to boot



Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.42
Severity: important

After yaird failed to generate an image for the latest 2.6.14 kernel 
(2.6.14-5), I tried initramfs-tools.
The initrd was generated, but the boot failed: /dev/hda1 not present.

The following modules were loaded correctly (from cat /proc/modules):
generic
cmd64x   (harddisk controller)
sunhme   (network card)

What was missing is module ide-disk.
Manually modprobing that followed by crtl-D resulted in the system 
completing the boot correctly.

(Thanks to maks for quick real-time diagnostics :-)

Cheers,
FJP
