I noticed the following error printed to console during bootup of my custom GRML Live CD:
modprobde: module dm-raid45 not found in modules.dep
I did a bit of research into this module, and found it is called "dmraid" in the Debian package repositories. This package is available for wheezy/jessie, but not installed by default. However, "dmraid" *is* included in GRML's FAI classes:
# grep -R dmraid /etc/grml/fai/* /etc/grml/fai/config/package_config/GRML_XL:dmraid /etc/grml/fai/config/package_config/GRML_MEDIUM:dmraid /etc/grml/fai/config/package_config/GRML_SMALL:dmraid /etc/grml/fai/config/package_config/GRML_FULL:dmraid
The dmraid package is responsible for support for so-called "ATARAID", which is RAID for IDE drives provided by a number of old hardware RAID cards (details here: https://packages.debian.org/wheezy/dmraid & https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=ataraid&sektion=4&manpath=... ).
Given how old this RAID driver is... should dmraid be removed from the GRML FAI classes? Or is there something else that needs to be done to correct the "module dm-raid45 not found in modules.dep" error on the custom Live CD?
Thanks!
Eric

This is https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=411172#103 and https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=745697 so this should be fixed in Debian.

Mika,
Excellent, thank you. I was able to get rid of that error message by employing the suggested patch in that Debian bug report, https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=745697. I.e., I simply commented out the line "force_load dm-raid45" in grml-live/grml_chroot/usr/share/initramfs-tools/hooks/dmraid. Then when I built my next version of my custom GRML ISO using grml-live, it booted up cleanly, without the error "modprobe: module dm-raid45 not found in modules.dep".
Cheers,
Eric

Jepp, I just pinged the bugreport/maintainer again to make sure that this get's fixed within Debian properly. :)
