hooks

lumiwa · 2006-12-06 20:43:57

I am not sure for what I need to have in mkinitcpio.conf (hooks):

I have IDE hard disk and IDE Ccdrom/dvd writer., I use also USB mLohitech mouse and USB memory card reader for camera. Everything work.
in mkinitcpio.conf I have:

HOOKS="base udev autodetect pata scsi sata filesystems"

fstab looks:

none /dev/pts devpts defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0

/dev/cdrom /mnt/cd iso9660 ro,user,noauto,unhide 0 0
/dev/dvd /mnt/dvd udf ro,user,noauto,unhide 0 0
/dev/fd0 /mnt/fl vfat user,noauto 0 0

/dev/sda3 / ext3 defaults 0 1
/dev/sda1 /boot ext2 defaults 0 1
/dev/sda2 swap swap defaults 0 0

Do I need in mkinitcpio.conf in the hooks section all three: pata, sata and scsi?

Thanks in advance,

Mitja

Since you only have an IDE hard disk and IDE cd/dvd drive then you should only need pata and not sata and scsi, but if you experience any boot hickups you could try using ide but then /dev/sdaX would become /dev/hdaX (I believe) which would mean changing your fstab entries, or you could go the safer route and use persistent naming http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Per … ice_naming

...or if I want to keep fstab entries which I have than I could safely remove sata and scsi from my mkinitcpio.conf - hooks section?

Yes, scsi and sata are only for scsi and sata

scsi and sata modules will not be included because of autodetect hook.

Thanks to everyone for help...
I have now:
HOOKS="base udev autodetect pata filesystems"

and it works same as before: very good but message about CDROM is still here when I open KsCD.

What message?

sr0: CDROM not ready. Make sure there is a disc in the drive

This message flooding my logs and I get it when I open KsCD. I had KsCD all the time in the panel and I never had a problem.
When I open KsCD and try:
lsof | grep sr0
kscd 11433 ajtim 10r BLK 11,0 3412 /dev/sr0

if maybe help you.
Thanks.

P.S.
I don't have hal or dbus in my rc.conf

No, it doesn't help. I had sg also in rc.conf but was same. And BTW I didn't change nothing just update kernel from testing.

On private conversation on ICQ today one user reported that he fixed the same issue by setting write permisssions on /dev/sr0 to all users.

I did try - same. When is CD in and playing is okay, when stop and eject, flooding is back.

I don't know why I never tried to use Amarok for CD. It is much better and I don't have messages about CDROM.

Thanks for help.
