2010-06-14init: display warning message if devtmpfs could not be mounted.Michael Prokop
Older kernel versions (like the one shipped with Lenny) don't support devtmpfs. Therefore display a warning message when falling back to tmpfs. See #501359. Thanks: Ferenc Wagner <wferi@niif.hu> Signed-off-by: Michael Prokop <mika@debian.org>

MODULES=dep We can't assume it's always [hs]dX# in /proc/mdstat. It can be e.g. also [hs]dX (raw device) or dm-## as well. So don't statically calculate the string based on string length but instead try to be as smart as possible. Also add support for handling additional arguments in the /proc/mdstat output like "(auto-read-only)". This affects MODULES=dep only.

2010-05-28mkinitramfs: fix MODULES=dep on mylex raid devices (DAC960)Claus Herwig
mkinitramfs fails to generate a initrd file for root filesystems on an old mylex raid controller (kernel module DAC960). In my case this breaks installation for lenny (5.0.3) on a FJS Primergy server - as this bug is not only in the mentioned version but also in 0.92 which ships on the lenny install cd: The installer can boot, as the old kernel module is still present. But the base install step fails when it tries to generate the initrd. The error in detail, when invoking mkinitramfs manually with -x ----------- (...) + manual_add_modules ext2 + local mam_x firmwares firmware ++ modprobe --set-version=2.6.29.6-vs2.3.0.36.14-beng --ignore-install --quiet --show-depends ext2 ++ awk '/^insmod/ { print $2 }' + for mam_x in '$(modprobe --set-version="${version}" --ignore-install --quiet --show-depends "${1}" | awk '\''/^insmod/ { print $2 }'\'')' + '[' -e /tmp/mkinitramfs_lNjzuV//lib/modules/2.6.29.6-vs2.3.0.36.14-beng/kernel/fs/mbcache.ko ']' ++ dirname /lib/modules/2.6.29.6-vs2.3.0.36.14-beng/kernel/fs/mbcache.ko + mkdir -p /tmp/mkinitramfs_lNjzuV//lib/modules/2.6.29.6-vs2.3.0.36.14-beng/kernel/fs ++ dirname /lib/modules/2.6.29.6-vs2.3.0.36.14-beng/kernel/fs/mbcache.ko + ln -s /lib/modules/2.6.29.6-vs2.3.0.36.14-beng/kernel/fs/mbcache.ko /tmp/mkinitramfs_lNjzuV//lib/modules/2.6.29.6-vs2.3.0.36.14-beng/kernel/fs + '[' n = y ']' ++ modinfo -F firmware /lib/modules/2.6.29.6-vs2.3.0.36.14-beng/kernel/fs/mbcache.ko + firmwares= + '[' -z '' ']' + continue + for mam_x in '$(modprobe --set-version="${version}" --ignore-install --quiet --show-depends "${1}" | awk '\''/^insmod/ { print $2 }'\'')' + '[' -e /tmp/mkinitramfs_lNjzuV//lib/modules/2.6.29.6-vs2.3.0.36.14-beng/kernel/fs/ext2/ext2.ko ']' ++ dirname /lib/modules/2.6.29.6-vs2.3.0.36.14-beng/kernel/fs/ext2/ext2.ko + mkdir -p /tmp/mkinitramfs_lNjzuV//lib/modules/2.6.29.6-vs2.3.0.36.14-beng/kernel/fs/ext2 ++ dirname /lib/modules/2.6.29.6-vs2.3.0.36.14-beng/kernel/fs/ext2/ext2.ko + ln -s /lib/modules/2.6.29.6-vs2.3.0.36.14-beng/kernel/fs/ext2/ext2.ko /tmp/mkinitramfs_lNjzuV//lib/modules/2.6.29.6-vs2.3.0.36.14-beng/kernel/fs/ext2 + '[' n = y ']' ++ modinfo -F firmware /lib/modules/2.6.29.6-vs2.3.0.36.14-beng/kernel/fs/ext2/ext2.ko + firmwares= + '[' -z '' ']' + continue + '[' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 '!=' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 ']' + '[' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 '!=' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 ']' + '[' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 '!=' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 ']' + '[' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 '!=' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 ']' + '[' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 '!=' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 ']' + '[' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 '!=' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 ']' + '[' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 '!=' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 ']' + '[' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 '!=' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 ']' + '[' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 '!=' /dev/rd/c0d0p1 ']' + block=rd/c0d0p1 + block=rd/c + '[' -z rd/c ']' + '[' '!' -e /sys/block/rd/c ']' + echo 'mkinitramfs: for root /dev/rd/c0d0p1 missing rd/c /sys/block/ entry' mkinitramfs: for root /dev/rd/c0d0p1 missing rd/c /sys/block/ entry + echo 'mkinitramfs: workaround is MODULES=most' mkinitramfs: workaround is MODULES=most + echo 'mkinitramfs: Error please report the bug' mkinitramfs: Error please report the bug + exit 1 ------------- So the reason is that mkinitramfs fails to derive the correct block device notation from the root device as the DAC960 driver uses a strange format for it.

The public domain "license" is very liberal and thus allows this to be relicensed under mostly any compatible license. Although not strictly needed many passed contributors agreed on the license change. Many especially asked for the "or any later version", thus it is now licensed under GPL v2 or later. This should ease collaboration with dracut.
