Please give this version of inotify a fresh view. >=20 I applied this to 2.6.8.1 and most of -mm4's patches - it applied cleanly and compiled fine. I use devicemapper to stripe two 80gb sata drives on intel sata controller, using initramfs. Now when I boot, I see something like: --- BIOS EDD facility v0.16 2004-Jun-25, 2 devices found Freeing unused kernel memory: 264k freed inotify device opened dm ioctl error or such --- Which then results in a panic as the dm volumes cannot be setup and no / found by kernel. So basically it seems like inotify mess with dm in some way or other - any quick ideas what it could be? I do not have serial console, so if you need a more complete log, just let me know from where abouts I should start, and if any debugging should be turned on, etc. Thanks, --=20 Martin Schlemmer --=-jDT5xEv71dxykyt40efr Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.5 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBBKkkTqburzKaJYLYRAi8QAJ0dYykbSwRJxt0y//AE3PCSO0MKDQCfRgdg m9m1vuYK9xbMdY2iTRKYPA8= =2a+9 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-jDT5xEv71dxykyt40efr--
