https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=433105 Summary: no upgradable partition found when going from clean 11.0 to 11.1 beta2 x86 Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Beta 2 Platform: i386 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.0 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: abittner@stud.fh-heilbronn.de QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: --- hi there, just installed a clean 11.0 x86 on my testsystem, applied all the current patches via "yast2 online_update", rebooted this system. then i booted from downloaded x86 iso dvd media of 11.1 beta2. selected upgrade and the installer tried to find the previous 11.0 product, but it didnt find anything. in raw mode i listed all the partitions and tried to point to the partition where the / (root) mountpoint should have been and the root files should be located but to no avail. no success. 11.1 beta2 is completely unable to upgrade a clean 11.0 installation. too bad :( will attach the yast2 logfiles in the next step after creating this initial entry. cheers. -- 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.

Module loading order is determined by modules.order which is generated according to the linking order and can also be edited afterwards. There are two changes here. 1. Initial udev start behavior changed between SL110 and SL111. In SL111, the initial udev start now pulls in all the modules instead of the linuxrc. 2. initrds on installed system now contain all the ATA/SCSI drivers but it doesn't contain all the IDE ones by default, right, Alex? So, this is no the root cause of the problem. The IDE driver must have been included because it was used during installation. -- 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.

Check why the installation initrd behavior has changed. linuxrc now tries to load modules which are already loaded by udev. Something went wrong there. Either we stop linuxrc from trying to load drivers at all or stop udev from loading drivers before it. 2. Regarding IDE drivers, I don't mind either way. It doesn't really matter whether they're included in the initrd or not but we definitely need to put all libata ones before ide, which can be trivially achieved by moving ide/ below ata/ in drivers/Makefile. I'll do it. This change will also mask #1 but we still need to fix it.

We've always included all IDE and libata drivers in the initrd of the installation media. linuxrc took care of the driver priorities there but now udev loads all the drivers and prefer IDE ones over libata ones according to modules.order. The second problem is the inclusion of all IDE ones into the initrd of the installed system, which can be solved by either excluding IDE drivers from initrd or making modprobe prefer libata ones over IDE ones. That's Alex and Hannes's decision and regardless of that I'm putting IDE behind libata as that's what the current situation is and solves other problems too. But we still need to find what changed in the installation media. Something changed there and udev stole linuxrc's job. -- 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.

I had patched the udev scripts in 11.0 not to do it because there wasn't sufficient testing time. With 11.1 I removed that patch. In fact I was asked by several people why udevd doesn't load modules in 11.0, so there you go. You can switch back to the old behavior with 'linuxrc.debug=-udev.mods'. AFAIK linuxrc does not try to load the divers again. Why do think that? -- 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.

In fact, pata_hpt* drivers need such change as they need all the pata_hpt* drivers to be loaded instead of the first one which seems to fit. I thought linuxrc was trying to load modules because of the messages linuxrc printed out. I thought it was trying to load all the modules it printed out. It apparently only loads ide-generic, which BTW is the wrong thing to do as the proper driver is already bound to the device. Maybe linuxrc thinks that it needs to load ide-generic as it didn't load anything for the storage controller?

I do not see it with my vmware setup. Tejun, can you run 'hwinfo --storage --log=foo' on that machine and attach the log? Also, loading ide-generic _after_ the usual ata drivers should not make a difference, should 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.

And loading ide-generic can do a lot of damage on certain systems where the ATA controller has two interfaces - a native one and SFF TF compatible one - and enabling the native one doesn't completely disable the legacy one and the native one also doesn't claim legacy ports using it's PCI BARs. ide-generic will attach to the legacy ports in legacy mode not knowing that it's trying to drive the same hardware the native driver is already attached to. So, loading ide-generic by default is a really bad idea.
