Summary: 2.5.67 won't get the real partition table for hdb Kernel Version: 2.5.67 Status: NEW Severity: high Owner: alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk Submitter: torden88@yahoo.no
Distribution: Linux From Scratch, glibc 2.3.2, gcc 3.2.2 (didn't work with 2.95.5 either) Hardware Environment: Athlon XP 1600+, hdb is a seagate 20,4 gb, Software Environment:gcc 3.2.2 Problem Description: 2.5.67 won't get the real partition table for hdb Steps to reproduce: Just compile and run a 2.5.67 kernel.
When I compiled a 2.5.67 kernel (and 2.5.66, 2.5.65 and 2.5.63), during boot it says: Kernel panic: could not mount root fs on /dev/hdb13 (or something). I look a bit longer up, and i see this: hdb: hdb1 When it is detecting the partition. I am using isolinux for booting (lilo and GRUB doesn't work). It did not work with syslinux either.
fdisk -l /dev/hdb says: Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hdb1 2 2490 19992892+ f Win95 Ext'd (LBA) /dev/hdb2 * 1 2 8032+ 83 Linux Partition 2 does not end on cylinder boundary: phys=(1, 0, 63) should be (1, 254, 63) /dev/hdb5 2 14 104359+ 83 Linux /dev/hdb6 15 651 5116671 83 Linux /dev/hdb7 652 827 1413688+ 83 Linux /dev/hdb8 828 892 522081 82 Linux swap /dev/hdb9 893 1019 1020096 b Win95 FAT32 /dev/hdb10 1020 1529 4096543+ 83 Linux /dev/hdb11 1530 1911 3068383+ 83 Linux /dev/hdb12 1912 2154 1951866 83 Linux /dev/hdb13 2155 2490 2698888+ 83 Linux
I don't boot from /dev/hdb2.
It works perfectly with 2.4.x.
