Description:
Startup with newest kernel linux-3.1.1-1 drops me to a recovery shell with following output: >Waiting 10 seconds for /dev/hda2 >Root device /dev/hda2 doesn't exist..attempting to create it! >ERROR: Unable to determine major-minor of root drive /dev/hda2 > >Dropped to recovery shell,,,,,, > >ramfs/]# On compiling the new linux-3.1.1-1 I noticed this mkinitcpio error: ==> ERROR: module not found: `alim15x3' ==> ERROR: module not found: `ide_pci_generic' Older kernel versions (<= linux-3.0.7-1) don't show this error and boot fine. But compiling older kernels without above stated modules give me the same boot error. Additional info: * package version(s) linux-3.1.1-1 * config and/or log files etc. mkinitcpio.conf is attached Steps to reproduce: Update to linux-3.1.x |
