Hello,
I've been looking all day for any FAQ or answer to this question/problem and finally have to post here because I am out of options.
I have setup a system (Dell Precision 380 w/sata HD's on separate channels) in a RAID1 software config. I added the SATA/SCSI/RAID drivers to the kernel. I want to boot from /dev/md1 as the root FS /dev/md0 as boot.
When the system is coming up, I see it load the md parts and then the SCSI (I think sg) parts. Then it seems to be loading the next module/driver as a mouse driver but after echoing the line to the console, the system hangs indefinitely with no further messages or output.
I did this easily in 2.5.29 by creating a custom initrd that loaded all the modules, crafted the arrays, and then let the system use it for root mount.
I'm confident I'm close to getting this going since I've been beating on it a while now but without any other message to go on, I don't know what to look for next.
Can anyone here give me some tips on how to enable boot time debugging or any other tricks/tips that may shed light on where things are failing?
Any input greatly appreciated.
