The armel architecture is a new port of arm built with an incompatible
abi. To generate kernel images for armel, I've based things on the
existing arm setup, with these change

If it's only a renaming of the source package, and not a change to the
form of the binary package names, then I don't see any problem from a d-i
or debian-cd POV.

udev 0.103-1 works around the probl
joeyh: I remember talking about #398962 with waldi, IIRC platform devices
in recent kernels provide $MODALIAS while they should not. so udev will always
try loading again the driver after it has been loaded
I suppose I could add a workaround in udev since I do not know about any
platform drive

The loop does not occur until pcmciutils's init script loads the module.
I can repro

I also see it in qemu.

Testing d-i with a 2.6.18 kernel in vmware, pcmciautils's init script
doesn't see any pcmcia bridge, so it falls back to trying to load
i82365.
The modprobe of this module seems to hang for some time, as does a late

Severity: normal
mkinitramfs is not a set -x script, and so when call_scripts runs a hook
script, any error is ignored.
In some cases, a hook script needs to abort the initramfs build. For
example, then nslu2-tools hook script can detect issues, like a missi

After installing usplash, when I reboot each lsb output line is followed

I do not get any kind of graphical display, just lots of copies of that

I get the same error several time

I tried with 2.6.17 and it's ok; the size reductions made in this version bring
it back down to being small enough (although it's close; see below). I hope a
new version of the 2.6.16 kernel can be released with those same changes (I
understand that one was turning off selinux support for nslu2).
