Yes this is still an issue in Lucid with the kernel 2.6.32-22-generic which I believe is still the latest. Ran apport-collect as instructed.
Unfortunately the system on which this happens is in production and I do not wish to upgrade the whole system to a development release. I did test two new kernels however, with good results. As I didn't find info on which is the latest kernel in the current development release of Ubuntu, I took the newest I could find in http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/l/linux/, that is linux- image-2.6.35-5-generic_2.6.35-5.6_i386.deb. I also tested the mainline release http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v2.6.35-rc1-lucid /linux-image-2.6.35-020635rc1-generic_2.6.35-020635rc1_i386.deb. Both of these new kernels I tested worked in that they eventually recover from the mptspi error. It still takes longer than the default rootdelay, but in any case it does recover by itself and with these new kernels and tweaking rootdelay I can get the system to boot without manual intervention. Good news! So it seems the issue probably is resolved in the next Ubuntu release. But of course not in 10.04 LTS. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => New -- regression: root device not found (mptspi) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/576302 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
