exist on it, bail out instead of panicing In these cases, we will exec /bin/sh, such that manual recovery is still possible as sh has PID 1 An expert might be able to mount and switch_root manually. In any case, this is less scary than a panic and a useless trace.
2010-02-14Kill udev after mounting file systems, not beforeThomas Bächler1-9/+10
Slow devices like USB devices will be detected after we kill udev, thus booting will fail. Kill udev as the last step, directly before we umount /proc and /sys and run switch_root.

2009-09-30rootdelay check: Fix compatibility with other sh implementations than dash ↵Thomas Bächler1-1/+1
and make it more reliable The old implementation failed on bash and failed on both if rootdelay was not a number. The logic is now as follows: If "$rootdelay"="", then [ -z "${rootdelay}" ] is true If not, then the part after the || is executed - if ${rootdelay} is not a number, or is <0, then [ ${rootdelay} -ge 0 ] fails, and the test will return true due to the !. The previous implementation failed here, because [ ! ${rootdelay} -ge 0 ] returns false on error, while ! [ ${rootdelay} -ge 0 ] returns true on error.

2009-06-07Don't only check for block devices, but also for symbolic links.Thomas Bächler1-1/+1
If we have a symlink, we don't check further if it points to a block device, partially due to klibc's readlink being broken.

2009-06-06Rework the root device detection / creation stageThomas Bächler1-36/+34
- Set rootdelay to 10 by default - Skip the whole detection stage if we use root on nfs - Use the new poll_device function to wait for at most $rootdelay seconds - Always pass rootdelay=0 to kinit, as we ensure the existence of the root device - Don't reboot after the fallback. This allows a user to fix a problem and continue booting - Rely on kinit to detect the root filesystem type. The rootfstype= option can still be used to override Our old method would have failed as well, as the code for filesystem detection is the same

This one exports $rootdelay to $kinit_params to avoid having to wait for $rootdelay 2 times when one specifies rootdelay=x on the kernel cmdline (one in init, one for kinit)... git-svn-id: http://projects.archlinux.org/svn/initramfs/mkinitcpio@201 880c04e9-e011-0410-abf7-b926e227c9cd

The attached patch places the $root check before killing udev. The point is this: It gives udev a chance to create the device. It also prints a message saying "if you see the device being created here, try passing rootdelay=8 or higher to the kernel" also some minor edits: - Use echo instead of message when dropping into the shell when $root isn't found. People will always want to see those message i guess... - fixed a little typo : "use d echo * " is now "use echo * " mkinitcpio-rev199-place-rootcheck-before-killing-udev.patch git-svn-id: http://projects.archlinux.org/svn/initramfs/mkinitcpio@200 880c04e9-e011-0410-abf7-b926e227c9cd
