Bug#717689: linux: please review and merge m68k patch



Dixi quod…

Ah well. Of course it didn’t boot.

/lib/modules/3.10-0+m68k.2-m68k/kernel/arch/m68k/emu/nfblock.ko
is the “IDE” driver for ARAnyM machines (like virtio-blk).

It’s not present in the initrd (others, like buddha, falconide,
gayle, macide, q40ide in drivers/ide/ and atari_scsi.ko and
friends in drivers/scsi/ are), which makes my boot fail, since
I used root=/dev/nfhd8p1 like before (nfhd8 ~= vda in kvm terms).

Which package is responsible for the inclusion of arch-specific
kernel modules into the initrd (for MODULES=most right now; I
have yet to try MODULES=dep)?

Thanks,
