Description Wojciech Milkowski 2003-07-17 01:37:21 UTC
When system starts up on kernel 2.6.0-test1, baselayout assumes that this is
2.4.x version, and use 2.4 startup profile instead of 2.5 that should be used.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. compile kernel 2.6.0-test1
2. restart system
3. notice what happens during startup



Expected Results:  
Baselayout should use 2.5 profile for 2.6.x kernels.

No.  Its not certain that the new version will work with just the version down's
'profile', although it does in this case, and I am not going to hardcode for
every devel/stable version what can be used, and what not.

New kernel, new config, plain and simple:

  # cp /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.5 /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6

in this case where it will work, or create a new one.

Sorry I did'n think about that. Next time I will be more careful... :)
