21:58.06jacquesI tried linking /linuxrc to /boot/disk but it still booted to flash
22:01.07jacqueswhat is a uuid?
22:01.18jacques<PROTECTED>
22:03.10jacquesit's mentioned in turnup help but not explained/defined in any way
22:05.39mwester-laptopuuid is the unique id of the partition, used to locate it.
22:06.09mwester-laptopDo you have "init=/linuxrc" in your command-line when booting?
22:07.32mwester-laptopAlso, check the module utilities in /etc/default (on the jffs2 device), it might be that a modprobe kernel-module-pata-artop is required (the dsmg600 needed that, otherwise the disk was mounted waaay too late int eh boot.)
22:08.40jacquesroot@brokenslug:/$ cat /proc/cmdline
22:08.40jacquesroot=/dev/mtdblock2 rootfstype=jffs2 init=/linuxrc rtc-pcf8563.probe=0,0x51  noirqdebug console=ttyS0,1152
22:08.40jacques00n8
22:09.33CIA-803oleo * r4556 10optware/trunk/ (Makefile make/tor.mk): optware: tor initial import
22:09.44jacquesmwester-laptop, that last thing you said sounds like it might be it
22:10.18jacqueswhat's the kernel-module-pata-artop string?
22:10.33jacquesI mean, that's not the module's name...
22:10.45mwester-laptopI commited a fix for that for the dsmg600 last night.  I think it added "modprobe kernel-module-pata-artop"
22:10.55mwester-laptopShould be the same on the 100d
22:12.26jacquesshouldn't it just be 'modprobe pata_artop' ?
22:15.37mwester-laptopEr, sorry - you are correct.
22:16.45jacquesthat had no effect that I can tell
22:16.59jacquesit's like the boot/disk stuff is being bypassed
22:17.57jacquesprobably related to turnup failure
22:24.31jacques<jacques> /boot/disk does this: if test -n "$1"
22:24.31jacques<jacques> where does $1 come from
22:24.49jacques# boot from the hard disk partition "$1" (which
22:24.49jacques# must be given) using options from the rest of
22:24.49jacques# the command line.
22:25.02jacquesdoesn't really tell me anything useful
22:25.09jacquesgiven how?
22:25.41jacquesif $1 wasn't set, it would bypass all the disk boot like it is doing
22:30.01jacquesisn't this command: sed -n 's!^Hardware     *: !!p' /proc/cpuinfo
22:30.10jacquessupposed to output something?
22:30.18mwester-laptop<PROTECTED>
22:30.45mwester-laptopYeah that command is strange; I don't how it works.  But it seems to.
22:31.14jacqueshow can you tell?
22:31.31jacquesfor example, how could I tell if it was working on my system?
22:32.07mwester-laptopthe conditionals in /etc/default/moduleutils (or something) to load the required modules seem to work when I added the correct incantations for the DSM-G600.
22:32.33jacquesit had no effect for me
22:32.44jacquesso for all I know that's not working
22:33.38mwester-laptopIt sure made a difference for me; I added and removed lines in a conditional I added to load modules for the dsmg600 and observed the differences (like, modules wouldn't load if I commented them out).
22:36.40jacqueswell, I'm out of time to mess with this.

23:19.49jacquesI gotta go somewhere but will try to get on from there, then I ca ntell you everything I know
23:20.38jacquesshort version is I installed these modules (which are built by default):
23:20.47jacqueskernel-module-libata_2.6.19-rc5-r1.579_ixp4xxle.ipk and kernel-module-pata-artop_2.6.19-rc5-r1.579_ixp4xxle.ipk
23:21.10jacquesafter that, on boot the lude modprobes the module and even mounts all the partitions on the disk
23:21.12rwhitbyok, I'll put them in the disk modules scripts for nas100d
23:21.27rwhitbyI should be able to fix the turnup problems from there
23:21.37jacquesthat would be awesome :-)
23:21.58rwhitbyjust reloading debianslug now
23:22.01jacquesI'll still try to get online later in case there's anything I forgot
