 |
|
Hi,
Can somebody advise me why this SPARC box won't boot? may be I' still missing something?
I've built kernel using genkernel --dmraind --initramfs all
All needed SCSI modules are included in kernel.
silo.conf:
| Code: |
partition = 1
timeout = 10
default = rd
image = /boot/kernel-genkernel-sparc64-2.6.20-gentoo-r5-rd
label = rd
append = "md=1, /dev/sda1,/dev/sdb1"
initrd = /boot/initramfs-genkernel-sparc64-2.6.20-gentoo-r5-rd
root = /dev/md1
|
Boot log:

| Code: | | append = "md=1, /dev/sda1,/dev/sdb1" |
The space after the "1" should not be there. Try with that instead:
| Code: | | append = "md=1,/dev/sda1,/dev/sdb1" |

Just tried that - no luck  . This sparc box stil won't boot from /dev/md1 |

Moved from Installing Gentoo to Gentoo on Sparc.

EDIT: Fixed: I recompiled my kernel and now it works fine with the settings below. I must have either set one too many things to be built into the kernel last time or "genkernel --menuconfig all" wasn't set to compile the way I thought I had specified it to. Also, in the course of working out issues, I may have inadvertently compiled with the "dmraid" support the time before which could explain the conflict
Could this get moved back to Gentoo Install? Mainly because I'm having the same error on an x86 architecture with a Software RAID1 setup (all partitions are mirrored)
Specifically:
| Code: |
>> Detected real_root as a md device. Setting up the device node...
>> Determining root device...
>> Mounting root...
mount: Mounting /dev/md3 on /newroot failed: Invalid argument
!! Could not mount specified ROOT, try again
!! The root block device is unspecified or not detected.

Mirros defined:
/dev/md1 = /dev/sda1,dev/sdb1 (boot)
/dev/md2 = /dev/sda2,dev/sdb2 (swap)
/dev/md3 = /dev/sda3,dev/sdb3 (root filesystem)
Partition types on the individual drives are all "raid autodetect" (fd)
kernel was compiled (as far as I can tell) with RAID 1 and "Device Mapper Support" as built-in and not as a module when I ran "genkernel --menuconfig all". Also compiled into the kernel SATA drivers (for accessing SATA drives naturally  )
/etc/lilo.conf
| Code: |
boot=/dev/md1 # Install LILO in the MBR
install=menu
prompt # Give the user the chance to select another section
timeout=100 # Wait 10 (ten) seconds before booting the default section
default=Gentoo # When the timeout has passed, boot this section
raid-extra-boot=/dev/sda,/dev/sdb
lba32
# For genkernel users
image=/boot/kernel-genkernel-x86-2.6.20-gentoo-r8
label=Gentoo
read-only
root=/dev/ram0
append="init=/linuxrc ramdisk=8192 real_root=/dev/md3 udev"
initrd=/boot/initramfs-genkernel-x86-2.6.20-gentoo-r8
