4.99.52 opendisk boot error ?

[Frank Kardel]

Hi,

The kernel I tried from 20080203 behaves strange on boot.
opendisk complains with errno 16 (EBUSY) when attempting
the mount the root fs and asks for the root device.
Things continue normal after entering the correct root device.

This behavior was not present with
4.99.48 20080118. Any clues ?

yes ...
This was fixed yesterday by some changes to add VOP_CLOSE() calls
to the code that searches for BIOS raid information.
(sys/dev/ata/*)

David,

thanks for the information - I just found the discussion in current users
and updated my tree.
