[Bug 38688] Re: unable to boot

[Alejandro Cornejo]

Ok, after running modprobe sd_mod, nothing happens, /dev/sda3 is still missing.

I tried running the command you suggested literally but it didnt work, so i typed it manually for each directory in /sys/class/scsi_device

Also, here is the type and model entries, (i thought model could be usefull too).

0:0:0:0/model      DVD-ROM TS-H352C
0:0:0:0/type         5
0:0:1:0/model      DVD+-RW
0:0:1:0/type         5
1:0:0:0/model      223 U HS-CF
1:0:0:0/type         0
1:0:0:1/model      223 U HS-MS
1:0:0:1/type         0
1:0:0:2/model      223 U HS-SM
1:0:0:2/type         0
1:0:0:3/model      223 U HS-SD/MMC
1:0:0:3/type         0

So in case you are wondering, the first two entries are obviously my DVD and DVDRW drives, and the last four are from my usb multi card reader.

I also did a cat /sys/block/sd{a,b,c,d}/device/model

here is the result:

HS-CF
HS-MS
HS-SM
HS-SD/MMC

So it is using my usb multi reader as sd{a,b,c,d}

If i boot with kernel 2.6.15-19 I get the following with cat /sys/block/sd{a,b,c,d,e}/device/model

ST3160828AS
HS-CF
HS-MS
HS-SM
HS-SD/MMC

So my hard disk is first.

So? what is next? I tried to gather more info about the bug, but the prompt is really limited, even commands like lsmod/rmmod/fdisk are missing.
