09:29.31eFfeMinteresting observation
09:30.06NAiLmorning
09:30.08eFfeMI was playing with my audio trying to verify that without this new hub my audio card was not working
09:30.13eFfeMhi NAiL
09:30.32eFfeMrebooted with the audio device inserted in port1 of the slug
09:30.40eFfeMthe slug does not boot from hd
09:30.51eFfeMno .recovery or so
09:31.07eFfeMshortly after the single beep I get a double beep and it boots from flash
09:31.14eFfeMrepeatable (2 times)
09:31.35eFfeMafter removing the usb audio card and rebooting I again boot from hd
09:31.39eFfeMvery odd!
09:31.56eFfeMIs there a constraint that the hd must be the first device or so
09:32.09eFfeMin this situation the position of the hd has not changed
09:32.18NAiLhmm, what openslug ver?
09:32.36NAiLIt shouldn't matter what port the usb audio is in at all though
09:32.36eFfeM3.6 beta
09:32.36koendidn't 3.0 have a fix for that?
09:32.54eFfeMI synced with the head last weekend
09:33.15NAiLkoen: 3.6-beta uses UUIDs to mount the correct disk no matter what ;)
09:33.27NAiLof course, that requires re-turnup'ing
09:33.31eFfeMthe oddity is that if I connect my audio device to port 1 of the slug it now works
09:33.48eFfeMhm. don't think I did a new turnup
09:33.55NAiLlook in /initrd/linuxrc
09:33.58eFfeMhow can I check
09:34.08NAiLif you have an UUID there, it should boot no matter what
09:34.23NAiLif not, turnup to disk again
09:34.31eFfeMyeah, found it:
09:34.32eFfeM#!/bin/sh
09:34.32eFfeMleds beep
09:34.32eFfeMUUID='af31adb7-65d0-4601-b47b-d8c0d903bbe3' exec '/boot/disk' '/dev/sda5' '-t' 'ext3' '-o' 'defaults'
09:34.32eFfeMexec /boot/flash
09:35.05NAiLah, then it should boot from that disk even if there's five other disks available
09:35.15eFfeMI can repeat my test if needed, but I've no idea where to look for
09:35.16NAiLso that shouldn't be the problem
09:35.38NAiLthat's a very odd problem, tbh
09:35.42NAiLyou don't have serial?
09:35.58NAiLThe slugs should've had serial from the factory :-P
09:36.11eFfeMto me it seems that what is happening is that usb port 1 is probed, it is decided there is a device there (not mass storage class) and that the device is not bootable
09:36.18eFfeMno search for other devices
09:36.37NAiLnah, openslug doesn't give a shit about which port anything is plugged in to
09:36.46NAiLa port is a port ;)
09:37.01eFfeMno, I don't have serial, saw a Siemens phone cable on ebay that I want to bid on to mod it for my slug
09:37.25eFfeMhowever after the "misboot" I can get into the device by ssh-ing with opeNSLUg
09:37.39eFfeMand I can get access to the hd as well as do a dmesg
09:38.43eFfeMi checked dmesg, but that did not reveal much interesting stuff
09:39.06NAiLnah, usually there isn't much interesting there
09:39.24eFfeMbtw koen if you are in an experimental mood, you could try to put your hd on port 2, reboot and connect your iMic to port 1 after booting to see if it works in that situation
09:39.40eFfeMis there anything else for which serial would help?
09:40.11eFfeMI can add some diagnostics (eg debug options for loading drivers or echo commands); also I can run netconsole
09:41.12NAiLI think there should be a few "logger" statements sprinkled through the bootscripts
09:43.40eFfeMsuggestion where to start?
09:45.02NAiLnot really... A bit tired right now
09:45.14NAiLI should sleep more, but I can't fall asleep
09:45.25eFfeMyou just moved from Nail-zzz to NAiL
09:45.29NAiLyeah
09:45.44NAiL09:37 -!- You're now known as NAiLzZz
09:45.51NAiL10:29 -!- You're now known as NAiL
09:45.57eFfeMOh
09:46.14eFfeMi know how you must feel in that case
09:46.16NAiL03:36 -!- You're now known as NAiLzZz
09:46.21NAiL06:11 -!- You're now known as NAiL
09:46.33NAiLThat time I atleast slept ;)
09:47.03eFfeMi can imagine you're tired then
09:47.14NAiLyeah
09:47.28NAiLthing is, when you get those beeps, it somehow figures that your disk isn't bootable
09:47.39NAiLwhich is odd if it only occurs when the audio stick is connected
09:49.01eFfeMtried this twice. any idea where the beeps are produced?
09:49.41eFfeMbtw was looking for a usb datacable on ebay. good business, someone offered eur 15.75 ! don't want to bid on that one ...
09:50.11NAiLthey're produced in /boot/disk
09:50.14eFfeMfor siemens that is (to turn into a slug serial cable)
09:50.27NAiLthat's hideously expensive imo ;)
09:50.36eFfeMsaw a serial as well, is there any preference for serial vs usb
09:51.03eFfeMNAiL, that's what I thought! Apparently there are two people fighting for it, one with rating 0, one with rating 1

10:24.10eFfeManyone an idea why pvrusb2-mci is in the slugos package list, but not in the openslug/unstable feed ?
10:27.52rwhitbydunno- have you checked the build logs at logs.nslu2-linux.org ?
10:28.14rwhitby(a failing build could be blocking it)
10:29.51eFfeMnope, will do
10:30.33eFfeMi'm on last weeks head, that was 2.6.15, if the head has been moved to 2.6.16 there might be a problem
10:30.43eFfeMactually didn't think of the build logs
