| |
Hi!
I've been trying to use the cramfs to hold my initrd images and it works ok in 2.6.6, but when testing it in 2.4.26 or 2.4.27rc2 I get this problem:
RAMDISK: cramfs filesystem found at block 0 RAMDISK: Loading 2128 blocks [1 disk] into ram disk... done. Freeing initrd memory: 2128k freed cramfs: wrong magic
In Debian official kernel packages cramfs is being used as the initrd, so I had a look at Debian's kernel patches and extracted this one that makes initrd work for me in 2.4.26 and 2.4.27-pre2:
diff -urN kernel-source-2.4.26/fs/block_dev.c kernel-source-2.4.26-1/fs/block_dev.c --- kernel-source-2.4.26/fs/block_dev.c 2003-06-14 00:51:37.000000000 +1000 +++ kernel-source-2.4.26-1/fs/block_dev.c 2003-06-01 20:43:53.000000000 +1000 @@ -95,7 +95,7 @@ sync_buffers(dev, 2); blksize_size[MAJOR(dev)][MINOR(dev)] = size; bdev->bd_inode->i_blkbits = blksize_bits(size); - kill_bdev(bdev); + invalidate_bdev(bdev, 1); bdput(bdev); return 0; } I think this patch or some other fix should be applied.
