Makes my FC6 test box not boot - can't find /dev/root. Then when I go back to plain old mainline (2.6.35-rc5) and run `make oldconfig', the .config change sticks:
@@ -106,8 +106,7 @@ CONFIG_LOG_BUF_SHIFT=17 CONFIG_HAVE_UNSTABLE_SCHED_CLOCK=y # CONFIG_CGROUPS is not set -CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED=y -CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2=y +# CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 is not set CONFIG_RELAY=y CONFIG_NAMESPACES=y # CONFIG_UTS_NS is not set
and the box still won't boot.
Ick, that sucks.
What kernel was FC6 based on originally?
Kay, I thought that Fedora had fixed the "can't find root" issue for this type of sysfs configuation a long time ago. Or was that something else for PPC that I am thinking of?
thanks,
