hmm so the ata generic driver might have a bug to not properly show up in /sys and thus not to land on initramfs. > I know, that in the past, the module ide_generic was needed for > this machine to access the harddisc. so to boot it I would simply add as quick& dirty workaround echo ata-generic >> /etc/initramfs-tools/modules and then rebuild that 2.6.32-5 initramfs if that boots, I'd like to get the output of tree /sys thanks -- maks -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
