I ran into the same problem. The device /dev/sda (in my case) is not mounted under /media. It's similar to bug#693. (https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=693) //Chen Qi - The boot process hangs because the image is not mounted in /media. - I tested on the real HW (sugarbay) and the image boots but there are a lot of errors and the filesystem is mounted read-only. - The image boots on real hardware because the disk is loaded as /dev/sr0 (SCSI), while on qemu it's /dev/hdc. - If you run qemu with the -hdc option instead of -cdrom, qemu will load the image as a hard drive and the boot process succeeds. Problem caused by the following commit: commit 6a7aa9cac2fc128ffc9ea4416426335e06db345a Author: Otavio Salvador <otavio@ossystems.com.br> Date: Mon Apr 22 08:52:29 2013 -0300 udev-extraconf: Avoid mounting unknown filesystems Depending on kernel version used, the system can hung when trying to mount the extended partition (not the logical one) as it is a holder for other partitions and does not have a filesystem in it. To avoid this to happen we just mount partitions when these are using known filesystems so it does not try to mount a partition for an unsupported filesystem.

I'm now checking it with Otavio on OE mailing list. //Chen Qi Branch: master Commit: 2df21a3b27543df912a3ce05bef2415fae13cb7c URL: http://git.openembedded.org/?p=openembedded-core.git&a=commit;h=2df21a3b27543df912a3ce05bef2415fae13cb7c Verified on master:56ea7aca3e6b4a0db3f699cc0d775d267b36e164 |
