To help debugging, could you post your version of /etc/yaird/Default.cfg,
plus the output of yaird -v for the working version and the broken version?
I can no longer recreate the problem. To give more background, which may
explain why, this was a clean install on a new box with SATA, using Debian
From Scratch 0.6.19. I was under the 2.6.11 kernel from the CD when I build
the initrd in a chroot to my new install. /proc and /sys were both mounted,
and yaird appeared to complete sucessfully.
I have tried booting from the DFS CD again under the same kernel and still
cannot recreate the problem. The bootstrapped version of sid from the CD
contained quite a few backlevel packages, which have since been updated, so
maybe this has some bearing on it? I don't have another box like this I can
reinstall now to try again from scratch.
Anyway, in my current system state I can build a working initrd from the
latest yaird, and since there is no upgrade path to 2.6.14/yaird from Sarge
(and so probably no official upgrade path from anything else either) this
can probably be discounted as an odd one-off.
Regards, Richard.
