Package: linux-image-2.6.32-trunk-686 (version 2.6.32-3)
Version: unstable
Severity: show stopper
Description:
Boot aborts and dumps to busybox terminal as per bug # 555702 in
previous kernel package. That is, the ide hard drive is not
recognised and reported as "device does not exist" or to that
effect. No problem in 2.6.30 or earlier kernel packages.
I am unable to easily show the dmesg as mounting the SATA hard
drive or USB thumb drive from busybox will not work for me in
spite of these devices being recognised and listed in various
ways in /dev. mount protests with messages like "device does not
exist" or "no such file" .
from dmesg|grep ide:
...
probing IDE interface ide0...
ide0 : no devices on the port
probing IDE interface ide1...
ide0 @0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq14
...
also
ide-gd driver 1.18
is not found in dmesg as per previous kernel versions
--One theory of successful homo sapiens evolution is that our
erect posture, light frame, sweat glands and foot anatomy gave us
the ability to run long distances and the resulting superior stamina
allowed persistence hunting of game. The large brain allowed us
to forecast the prey's behaviour and movements. Neanderthal was
actually smarter, stronger, tougher and at least equal in social
cooperation and better at hunting large, slow game. But the
warming climate, diminishing forests and faster, smaller
game was a disadvantage to their bulky frame.
