OK, it looks like you need the module "megaraid_mbox" for that controller.

See https://wiki.debian.org/LinuxRaidForAdmins

So you can ignore my other 2 messages above this one.

[Sun Aug 17 21:02:47 2014] aic94xx: Adaptec aic94xx SAS/SATA driver version 1.0.3 loaded
Maybe add aic94xx to the list of modules to load in initrd

Edit, just saw other posted pictures about IDE drives, so forget the suggestion :/

Ok so ran dmesg and looked through the output, more didn't work. Didn't see too much but I did capture two pictures I thought might be of interest.

How did you add the additional kernel module? Did you try /usr/share/mkinitrd/mkinitrd_command_generator.sh -m megaraid_mbox ?

Yeah, it looks like your root partition is really /dev/sdb1

I don't understand why /dev/sdb1 would be my root partition, I didn't even touch /dev/sdb1 during the install.

Huge works but generic does not, so could it be some setting missing in generic that's in huge?

Maybe just use basic initrd (without megaraid)

Code:
cd /boot
mkinitrd -c -k 3.10.17 -m ext4 -f ext4 -r /dev/sda3
ata_piix and pata_sil680 are enabled as built-in in kernel 3.10.17 config
Code:
grep -i pata_sil /boot/config-generic-3.10.17
CONFIG_PATA_SIL680=y
grep -i ata_pi /boot/config-generic-3.10.17
CONFIG_ATA_PIIX=y
Modules dependencies should be automatically added

man mkinitrd
Code:
...
       -m module list
              This is a list of colon-delimited modules to build into the ini-
              trd.   Any  dependencies of requested modules will also be added
              to the initrd.  Additional options may  be  added  to  use  when
              loading  the  kernel  modules  (but in this case the entire list
              must be wrapped with double quotes).

Well, I'm assuming that the drive with 2 partitions is the one that you want to use. You can double-check by running the command cat /proc/scsi/scsi the next time you are at the RESCUE mode prompt.

What's happening is that when all the disk controller modules are built in, the kernel initialization code will (IIRC) do all the SCSI drivers first then any ATA drivers. When you are using the generic kernel, there aren't any SCSI drivers in the kernel, so any built-in ATA drivers are run before your kernel modules are loaded.

The SCSI drives are lettered on a first-come-first-served basis, which explains the difference.

Hey what's wrong using huge kernel anyway

Well, it's a slower boot since the kernel is testing all sorts of things that you know you don't have in your system.

This is what cat /proc/scsi/scsi came up with.
http://33.media.tumblr.com/bfa8e057d...l5eo1_1280.jpg

So I guess the next question would be what modules do I need to build into the kernel for scsi and raid? Or is it still possible to get generic running with an initrd? Right now that seems like the quick solution to solving my problems. If I do end up compiling a kernel is there any information or posts you can recommend for custom settings for server kernels?

Well, I'd go with the flow and change the root partition to /dev/sdb1 in my call to mkinitrd. You probably have to edit fstab to change /dev/sda* to /dev/sdb*.

You can also set a label on the root partition or run (as root) the blkid command to get the UUID of your root partition. If you use the UUID of the partition, you just use "UUID=<whatever>" instead of /dev/sda1. Same goes for /etc/fstab; replace all the entries in there with UUID= instead of the device name.

For instance, the laptop that I'm using at the moment gives
Code:
root@hp635:~# blkid
/dev/sda2: UUID="97224d62-8909-44d3-a523-9146a0c4e391" TYPE="ext4"

#
# mkinitrd_command_generator.sh revision 1.45
#
# This script will now make a recommendation about the command to use
# in case you require an initrd image to boot a kernel that does not
# have support for your storage or root filesystem built in
# (such as the Slackware 'generic' kernels').
# A suitable 'mkinitrd' command will be:

mkinitrd -c -k 3.10.17 -f jfs -r /dev/vg1/rootlv -m usbhid:hid_generic:ohci-hcd:jfs -L -u -o /boot/initrd.gz  -r UUID=0c01c289-3bbc-4ad3-a364-37a5257d8850
Which actually sets the root device in the initrd correctly but not in the resulting lilo stanza. I think that you can run lilo-uuid-diskid to get the correct boot and root lines for lilo. See http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ed-4175506499/ and http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...initrd-694607/

EDIT: My mkinitrd_command_generator.sh command should have had the additional option indicating that I'm using LVM.
