4.14 doesn't boot on ifc6601

Hi kimbo, laxman,

If that line root=/dev/disk/by-partlabel/userdata doesn’t works try sda9 (if it’s the same layout than my ifc6601).
AFAIK /dev/disk/by-partlabel/* is populated by udev which will not be ready yet
when mounting the rootfs.

Hi laxman and Julien,

I tried both /dev/disk/by-partlabel/userdata and /dev/sda9 for cmdline and both have the same results. I can get to a command prompt but I do not get as far as the display working. I did notice that there is an error that says:
[FAILED] Failed to start Load Kernel Modules.
See ‘systemctl status systemd-modules-load.service’ for details.
systemd-modules-load.service: Failed with result ‘exit-code’.

It’s not a big deal for me to get this working, I just thought it would be nice if it did because I’m not sure how the dragonboard filesystem differences affect how ifc6601 does things.
Thanks for the help!

Hi kim,
it seems like kernel modules hasn’t loaded.
make sure you have placed modules inside /lib/modules with name matches to “uname -r”

Thanks

Hi laxman,
Yes, that did the trick.
Thank you,
Kim
