Bug 46023 – ofpath reports bougus path to devices causing ybin to fail

• Status: RESOLVED FIXED
• Product: Gentoo Linux

[Description Daniel Ostrow (RETIRED) 2004-03-28 13:01:36 UTC]

Before installing the new ofpath from the url above the output of ofpath /dev/hda gave me the following:

ofpath: WARNING: Your kernel is too old for proper support, device may be innaccurate.
ultra2:

ybin thus would fail when it was run, with the ofpath from the url above I get this from ofpath /dev/hda:

/pci@f4000000/ata-6@d/disk@0:

which is propper and ybin now runs.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run ofpath <device-name>
2. Run ybin or ybin -v
3.

Actual Results:  
The following error occured:

ofpath: WARNING: Your kernel is too old for proper support, device may be
innaccurate.

Expected Results:  
I should have gotten the proper ofpath as decribed in Details above.
