Subject: Alpha no longer recognises certain partition tables (v2.6.38)
Date: Tue, 15 Mar 2011 22:06:25 +1300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4D7F2C11.907@orcon.net.nz> (raw)
v2.6.38 boot reports it can't recognise the partition table on the
system disk on my Alpha and panics when it can't find the root device.
It worked at v2.6.38-rc7.
While I haven't done a bisect to fully verify I nevertheless suggest the
following patch as the likely cause:
1eafbfe Fix corrupted OSF partition table parsing
Cheers
Michael.
