Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. catalyst -f livecd-stage2_template.spec

Actual Results:  
Catalyst fails on genkernel (could this be the result of make mrproper?)

Expected Results:  
Catalyst continuing.

Using kernel gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.10-r7 in catalyst.

Add your kernel .config as an attachment, please

[Comment 2 Stefan de Konink 2005-02-18 13:19:06 UTC]

It is not in the kernel config...

Please review the final lines of /usr/share/genkernel/gen_configkernel.sh

        # Make sure Ext2 support is on...
        sed -i ${KERNEL_DIR}/.config -e 's/#\? \?CONFIG_EXT2_FS[ =].*/CONFIG_EXT2_FS=y/g'
}

Enabling it and XATTR in the configuration file would help with this voodoo.

[Comment 3 Chris Gianelloni (RETIRED) 2005-03-24 06:37:36 UTC]

This really doesn't have anything to do with catalyst.  Also, please post your .config file, as asked.

[Comment 4 Tim Yamin (RETIRED) 2005-04-13 14:15:27 UTC]

If you manually run genkernel (with the same params) in your livecd-stage2 chroot do you get the same issue?

[Comment 5 Tim Yamin (RETIRED) 2005-06-15 11:59:48 UTC]

Please try the latest genkernel and also see comment #4.
