17:01.08 | beewoolie-afk | prpplague: yo |
17:01.11 | beewoolie-afk | [g2]: yo |
17:01.28 | [g2] | beewoolie-afk, hey! |
17:01.39 | [g2] | what's up ? |
17:01.52 | beewoolie-afk | [g2]: so, did jbowler find a solution to the restart problem? |
17:02.09 | [g2] | think so |
17:02.18 | [g2] | more jbowler-zzz than me :) |
17:02.40 | beewoolie-afk | Do you know what was the problem/ |
17:02.41 | beewoolie-afk | ? |
17:02.51 | [g2] | it's what you had suggested about the flash not being in the right mode |
17:03.37 | beewoolie-afk | Hmm. Cool. |
17:03.41 | beewoolie-afk | ~praise jbowler-zzz |
17:03.41 | purl | All hail jbowler-zzz! |
17:03.45 | prpplague | beewoolie-afk: hey hey |
17:03.48 | prpplague | beewoolie-afk: what up? |
17:04.09 | beewoolie-afk | prpplague: I spent a bunch of time on the LCD. It looks like the panel is sloppy |
17:04.19 | prpplague | beewoolie-afk: ahh |
17:04.29 | [g2] | so a 2.3-beta release is getting ready that has that plus the noirqdebug command line to disable those messages |
17:04.30 | beewoolie-afk | It doesn't display green well and there are lines between 'cells' of pels |
17:04.36 | prpplague | beewoolie-afk: i'm sorry, i didn't have much time to spend on it |
17:04.40 | beewoolie-afk | [g2]: Excellent! |
17:04.53 | beewoolie-afk | NP. I just wanted to know if I was being crazy |
17:05.01 | [g2] | beewoolie-afk, I'd like to try that rootdelay option too |
17:05.12 | beewoolie-afk | It turns out that I was already using the right PEL_CLOCK value. |
17:05.22 | beewoolie-afk | [g2]: What is rootdelay? |
17:05.48 | [g2] | after 2.6.11 they added a specific option in the kernel to delay loading the rootfs |
17:06.11 | [g2] | Jacmet used it in booting debian LE on his slug |
17:06.44 | [g2] | I think we can change the kernel to include ext2/3 and then boot directly to the external device |
17:07.10 | beewoolie-afk | I'm not making the connection. How does delaying mounting of the rootfs help? |
17:07.12 | [g2] | rootfs=/dev/sda1 rootdelay=5 |
17:07.47 | [g2] | because the device like USB isn't fully initialized before it trys to mount it |
17:08.06 | beewoolie-afk | Hmm. That sounds like a hack. |
17:08.18 | [g2] | it's a timing problem |
17:08.30 | [g2] | and it's mainline kernel code |
17:08.42 | beewoolie-afk | right. And adding a delay is a non-deterministic solution. |
17:09.08 | [g2] | I didn't say it was a great solution :) |
17:09.17 | beewoolie-afk | OK. I get it now. |
17:09.36 | [g2] | about a year or two ago I run into the problem trying to boot my desktop to usb flash |
17:09.59 | [g2] | the linuxrc ran by hand but not by itself |
17:10.21 | [g2] | a sleep cured it |
17:21.46 | Tiersten | They have a similar problem with LinuxBIOS and HDs |
17:22.07 | Tiersten | It boots so fast that the drives haven't finished init and it fails. Put in a little delay and its fine |
