Comment 6 for bug 126146

Hi Rogério,

Are you still trying the live CD or do you have gutsy installed?

I'd like to try and confirm that we're talking about the same problem.
If so then according to my understanding of the guidelines for bugs
I can bump from New to Confirmed.

Maybe we'll get some attention then.

Can you try this with the 2.6.22 kernel?
You might also confirm with an earlier kernel (I still have 2.6.20) that
you know works.

At the yaboot boot prompt:

        boot: Linux break=top (assuming that's the kernel in question)

When the scrolling stops I need to press enter to get the busybox initramfs prompt.

Then:

        initramfs: cat /proc/devices

I do not hve any entries for ide under "Block devices:". Do You?

        initramfs: ls /proc/ide

I get the response:

ls: /proc/ide: No such file or directory

Do you?

        initramfs: modprobe ide_core

I get output that shows the ide driver loading and finding the ide controllers
and ide drives. On my powerbook it looks like this.

Uniform Multi-Platform E-IDE driver Revision: 7.00alpha2
ide: Assuming 33MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx
ide0: Found Apple KeyLargo ATA-4 controller, bus ID 2, irq 19

ide0 at 0xe1016000-0xe1016007,0xe1016160 on irq 19
ide1: Found Apple KeyLargo ATA-3 controller, bus ID 0, irq 20

ide1 at 0xe101e000-0xe101e007,0xe101e160 on irq 20
ide2: Found Apple KeyLargo ATA-3 controller, bus ID 1, irq 21

Have you made it this far?

At this point I can exit the shell and I have a successfull boot.

        initramfs: exit

If you can't complete booting at this point maybe you have additional problems
that are confusing the issue.

Thanks,
