Hi Marcelo!

just verified that the NFS root bug-fix was not
included in 2.4.22-pre9, unfortunately I have
to ask you again, why you do not want to fix
this issue in 2.4.22 ...

I do not understand why Trond obviously is
ignoring my mails, regarding this particular
issue, maybe he is just too busy to look at
four twoline changes, and more, I do not
understand why this isn't accepted into the
marcelo kernel tree, as it obviously fixes a
misbehaviour?

please explain!

It is okay for me, if your argumentation goes
like "I don't like you, that's reason enough
for me to not include your patches ...", but I
would like to know ...

best,
Herbert

I do not consider the patch critical enough.

Get it in 2.5 first, then come back :)

No, this is not a joke, at all.

Let me repeat: I (and Trond) do not consider this patch critical.

err, correct me if I am totally wrong here but does "ROOT NFS fixes" means
somewhat like

append="nfsroot=10.0.0.7:/home/nfsroot \
ip=10.0.0.254:10.0.0.7:10.0.0.7:255.255.255.0:temp:eth0:off root=/dev/nfs"

does not work w/o the fix?

ciao, Marc

Ok, I'm wrong. I just read Trond's mail saying the patch is OK.

I'll apply it to -pre10.

hmm, maybe it _is_ too early to do this ;)
but on the other hand, I'm a fearless creature ...

What do you mean too early ?

Trond is OK with it, it seems.
