[Bug 435093] New: Waiting for /dev/disk/by-id error in boot sequence
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=435093 Summary: Waiting for /dev/disk/by-id error in boot sequence Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Beta 2 Platform: i586 OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Bootloader AssignedTo: jsrain@novell.com ReportedBy: gfarrell@netspeed.com.au QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Beta-Customer Problem occurs in boot; sequence stops with the following message: 'Waiting for /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-1ATA_WDC_WD1600BEVT-75ZCT1_WD-WXE508NK0617-part7 ...................' ie, a long wait, followed by: 'Do you want me to fall back to /dev/sda7? (Y/n) Entering 'Y' succeeds, and boot resumes successfully. These are the disk IDs reported by YaST-> System-> Partitioner: Device ID 1: scsi-SATA_WDC_WD1600BEVT-_WD-WXE508NK0617 Device ID 2: ata-WDC_WD1600BEVT-75ZCT1_WD-WXE508NK0617 This is the original entry used in /boot/grub/device.map: (hd0) /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-1ATA_WDC_WD1600BEVT-75ZCT1_WD-WXE508NK0617 This is used in the /boot/grub/menu.lst stanzas: /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-1ATA_WDC_WD1600BEVT-75ZCT1_WD-WXE508NK0617-part7 These entries make the boot error go away: a. for /boot/grub/device.map: (hd0) /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_WDC_WD1600BEVT-_WD-WXE508NK0617 b. for /boot/grub/menu.lst (when specifying drives): /dev/disk/by-id/scsi-SATA_WDC_WD1600BEVT-_WD-WXE508NK0617-part7 ie, just substituting entries in /boot/grub/device.map and /boot/grub/menu.lst with Device ID 1 from YaST. Notice the differences: a. 'SATA' instead of '1ATA', and b. '75ZCT1' was in the middle of the original entry. It seems that the original entry was arrived at by a corruption of the YaST ID 1 and ID 2 entries. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

What "vendor"? You mean ids starting with "ata-"?
Also, quite different from what was said in bug #251338.
Yeah, the picture has changed in the last 1.5 years. With the plan to move libata in the kernel out of the SCSI stack, we will have native "ata" devices again. The kernel device names will stay as /dev/sd*, but all the other stuff will look different. Until now you can tell from the name which subsystem created a block device (sd, hd), that will not be possible in the future. Running scsi_id on native ata devices will not make much sense. We will need to continue to do that, but better do not rely on it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
