Booting with baselayout-1.12.0_pre5 I noticed that modules-update tries to use tail at a point where /usr is not yet mounted. betelgeuse@pena ~ $ grep tail /sbin/modules-update dep=$(egrep '[[:space:]]*depfile' ${CFGFILE} 2> /dev/null | tail -n 1 | sed -e 's/depfile=//' -e 's,/[^/]*$,,') betelgeuse@pena ~ $ emerge info Portage 2.0.51.22-r2 (default-linux/x86/2005.0, gcc-3.4.4, glibc-2.3.5-r1, 2.6.12-gentoo-r7 i686) ================================================================= System uname: 2.6.12-gentoo-r7 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 2.40GHz Gentoo Base System version 1.12.0_pre5 distcc 2.18.3 i686-pc-linux-gnu (protocols 1 and 2) (default port 3632) [disabled] ccache version 2.4 [enabled] dev-lang/python: 2.4.1-r1 sys-apps/sandbox: 1.2.12 sys-devel/autoconf: 2.13, 2.59-r7 sys-devel/automake: 1.4_p6, 1.5, 1.6.3, 1.7.9-r1, 1.8.5-r3, 1.9.6 sys-devel/binutils: 2.16.1 sys-devel/libtool: 1.5.18-r1 virtual/os-headers: 2.6.11-r2 ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="x86 ~x86" AUTOCLEAN="yes" CBUILD="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -pipe -mfpmath=sse -ffast-math -fomit-frame-pointer" CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" CONFIG_PROTECT="/etc /usr/kde/2/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/env /usr/kde/3.4/share/config /usr/kde/3.4/shutdown /usr/kde/3/share/config /usr/lib/X11/xkb /usr/share/config /var/qmail/control" CONFIG_PROTECT_MASK="/etc/gconf /etc/init.d /etc/splash /etc/terminfo /etc/env.d" CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=pentium4 -pipe -mfpmath=sse -ffast-math -fomit-frame-pointer" DISTDIR="/usr/src/distfiles" FEATURES="autoaddcvs autoconfig ccache cvs distlocks fixpackages noauto sandbox sfperms sign strict" GENTOO_MIRRORS=" http://trumpetti.atm.tut.fi/gentoo http://lame.lut.fi/linux/gentoo " LC_ALL="en_US.utf8" LINGUAS="fi" MAKEOPTS="-j2" PKGDIR="/home/pkg/" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp" PORTDIR="/usr/portage" PORTDIR_OVERLAY="/usr/local/overlays/gentopia /usr/local/overlays/betelgeuse" SYNC="cvs://betelgeuse@cvs.gentoo.org:/var/cvsroot" USE="x86 X aac acl acpi alsa apm audiofile avi bash-completion berkdb bitmap-fonts browserplugin bzip2 bzlib cdb cddb cdparanoia cdr crypt cups curl dbus divx4linux dts dvd dvdr dvdread emboss esd fam flac foomaticdb freetype gcj gif gstreamer gtk2 hal imagemagick java jpeg kde kdeenablefinal kdexdeltas libg++ libwww logitech-mouse lzo mad makecheck mikmod mjpeg mmx mmx2 mp3 mpeg ncurses network nptl nptlonly nsplugin nvidia offensive ogg oggvorbis opengl pam pdflib png python qt quicktime readline real rtc ruby samba slp spell sse sse2 ssl subversion svg symlink tcpd theora tiff truetype truetype-fonts type1-fonts unicode usb userlocales vorbis win32codecs xine xml xml2 xv xvid zlib video_cards_nvidia linguas_fi userland_GNU kernel_linux elibc_glibc" Unset: ASFLAGS, CTARGET, LANG, LDFLAGS
Same problem here. Also seems not to be able to find System.map. This is what shows up in my /var/log/boot.msg : ---------------------------------- * Updating /etc/modprobe.conf ... [ ok ] * Updating /etc/modprobe.devfs ... [ ok ] /sbin/modules-update: line 74: tail: command not found * System.map not found - unable to check symbols * Using /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6 as config: * Loading module snd-hdsp ... [ ok ] * Loading module rtc ... [ ok ] ---------------------------------- Also wonder why it does "Updating /etc/modprobe.devfs" since this is set up for udev?
Adding that the error: * System.map not found - unable to check symbols Is not ameliorated by automounting /boot nor by linking System.map-<kernel> to System.map (in case the file needed to be just that exactly).
I can confirm this bug
This bug (tools in /usr not available to /etc/init.d/modules) also shows up on a couple of my machines. Curiously the others (which all have their own /usr as well) don't seem to have this problem.
should be fixed now
