Finally : Cannot confirm this BUG .
Posting from precise-5.5 on sdc2 ext2 formatted SDCard partition . Found the files ! Nothing unusual to report .
WHAT I can confirm is : xfs support is broken .
The partition was formerly formatted jfs .
Formatted to xfs : Missing operating system .
Formatted ext2 : Everything went smooth . Posting from it now .
Will have to check the PATH to logo.16 cos it did not show up,
but the four lines of boot.msg .
And while copying I did not correct the pdev1 variable in extlinux.conf and the /init was able to find it though :
Code: Select all
# cat /proc/cmdline
video=640x480 /LINUXes/precise-5.5/vmlinuz /LINUXes/precise-5.5/vmlinuz initrd=/LINUXes/precise-5.5/initrd.gz psubdir=LINUXes/precise-5.5 pdev1=sdc5
