Hmm. msdos.c has

put_partition(state, slot, start, size == 1 ? 1 : 2);
printk(" <");
parse_extended(state, bdev, start, size);
printk(" >");

The "hda2" is printed by put_partition(). But no " <" is printed.
An impossible error. Recompile your kernel.

Andries


[If a clean compile still fails, add
printk("partition start %u size %u type %u",
start, size, SYS_IND(p))
after the
for (slot = 1 ; slot <= 4 ; slot++, p++) {
u32 start = START_SECT(p)*sector_size;
u32 size = NR_SECTS(p)*sector_size;
around line 413 in fs/partitions/msdos.c.]
