--- Comment #2 from Andreas E ---
Alan, thanks a lot for your input.
First of all...this stuff DOES work in Kernel 2.6.xx, go figure.
I can prove that because I made a mistake yesterday by cleaning up my root
partition a little bit too thoroughly. Well, both the empty (!) /run and /usr
dirs must exist on the partition to hook in /usr at bootup. Thought either
upstart or systemd would be as intelligent as creating either of them when not
there. Bleh. (PEBKAC: find . -maxdepth 1 -type d ! -xtype l -empty -delete)
;-))
To cut it short, I had to fix this by booting off an old CD-based 2.6.xx kernel
"mini linux", so I could watch the startup process AND ... !
amd74xx, the ancient IDE controller kernel module compiled in there, actaually
*DID* initialize the drive properly. (Well, to make it tougher for testing, I
intentionally booted off an _IDE_ CD-ROM drive! If amd74xx had shown the same
behavior as pata_amd, it would've choked _while_ booting up the old linux!)
