Bugzilla – Bug 6857
Load modules doesn't load a menu on 2.6 20040414 ISO
Last modified: 2004-11-22 12:07:39 UTC
When selecting "Load modules" from the "Initrd Menu" I get the following error: Error: Expected 2 arguments, found only 1 Use --help to list options
Hrm. This and Bug #6858 are probably due to my CD-ROM being a SCSI drive using the aic7xxx module, so the ISO's ROOT is not defined yet. Will look into this.
http://forums.sourcemage.org/viewtopic.php?t=628 It worked for me on my ide systems, I entered the menu and loaded parport_pc to check it before releasing. All my code was in the kickstart-spell dir in perforce. You will want to look at the smgl.init file.
Yeah, I'll have to work out some way (perhaps the hardware detection that's being worked on) to have the CD-ROM (whether IDE or SCSI, the prior works flawlessly currently, thanks. ;)) initialized for the installer. After loading aic7xxx and sr_mod and mounting the CD-ROM device to /dev/cdrom it worked fine from then on.
Dear sandalle (and others), Despite stating otherwise I have tried to retain some interest in supporting my ISO work, but the undisclosed, undiscussed and unresolved problems from the previous year that precipitated my leaving still weigh heavily on my mind. I can't simply "forget" them or sweep them under the carpet, and while answering bugs and forum posts, anger and frustration eats into me like a cancer so I need to sever these last ties. Please enjoy the fruits of my thousand++ hours of contributions over the last year, I hope no-one needs to spend too much time correcting anything I have done and I hope what I started to do with the ISO is useful and the work and ideas are continued.
0.9.3 ISO does not seem to have such bug. Fixed. Please reopen if you can reproduce this bug. Benoit PAPILLAULT, ISO team
