well the work around while the kernel is getting built is to go in and change the initramfs package to only use the files listed. I don't have an ubuntu box in front of me so bear with me... edit /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf (??) and switch the first option to list (iirc). Then edit the /etc/initramfs-tools/modules.list file and add the appropriate ide drivers for the root hard drive, remember to include the filesystem drivers as well. I ended up having something like:
sis5513 reiserfs ide-core ide-disk generic Then regenerate the initramfs file (mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.20-4-386 2.6.20-4-386 && mkinitramfs -o /boot/initrd.img-2.6.20-4-generic 2.6.20-4-generic) and I was able to boot just fine, udev didn't even try to autoload the pata driver so you should be good. -- Kernel oops with pata_sis https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/107774 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
