Bug#787738: [upgrade-reports] wheezy to jessie boot problem in ata_piix kernel module



Package: upgrade-reports
Version: wheezy to jessie
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hello

I have a boot hang similar to described in bug #776192. The resolution has be
inspired in that bugreport too:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=776192

The server is a old one, but works well in our local radio-station. Is a Intel®
L440GX+
https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/18918/Intel-L440GX-Server-Board

It have 2 Pentium III (Katmai) processors, and this is the lspci output:
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 440GX - 82443GX Host bridge

01:0f.0 PCI bridge: Digital Equipment Corporation DECchip 21150 (rev 06)

The wheezy to jessie upgrade goes well. But in the reboot after dist-upgrade, I
can't boot with the jessie kernel 3.16.0-4. In the screen (after quit "quiet"
from /etc/default/grub), I can see a lot of:
  /script/local-block (or something, I annotate them in paper)
and it finished with an initramfs prompt...

From this prompt, in dmesg, I can see these errors:
  scsi2: error handler thread failed to spawn, error = -4
  ata_piix: probe of 0000:00:12.1 failed with error -12

A google search with the first error bring me to #776192. It is not the same
case, but it is similar. The only difference is in the kernel module.

As in that bugreport, I can boot without problems with the wheezy kernel
3.2.0-4, with systemd, and with sysvinit. But not with the jessie one
(3.16.0-4), neither with systemd or sysvinit.

In that bugreport last email:
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=776192#56
said that the bug in in udev, and it is solved in version 217. In SID is the
version 220-4. I download this 2 packages from the debian webpage:
ii  libudev1:i386  220-4        i386         libudev shared library
ii  udev           220-4        i386         /dev/ and hotplug management daem
and install it without problems in stable, and now the server is running well.
It boot well with the jessie stable kernel 3.16.0-4.

Thats all. This report is only for information. For me the problem is solved.

Many thanks. Excuse my bad english. Greetings. Martintxo.
