CentOS 5 :: Install Fedora 13 VM On 5.5 With Xen: Invalid Kernel Error
Sep 8, 2010
I'm trying to install Fedora 13 VM on my CentOS 5.5 64 bit install following the below link. I used this same process to install a CentOS 5.5 VM just to test the process. Now when I try to follow it making changes for Fedora Im getting an error.[URL] config file:
kernel = "/install/vm/fedora/vmlinuz"
ramdisk = "/install/vm/fedora/initrd.img"
name = "fedora13"
[code]...
In the CentOS link I posted it said to use kernel from the xen directory.Ive found out that the last fedora version that shipped with xen was fedora 8. Does anyone know where I can find a fedora 12/13 xen kernel? Ive searched google for hours and can not find a xen kernel. Actually I'm to the point where I would even use ubuntu or any similar distro if I could find a xen kernel.
I have a weird problem with one of my servers (normal PC hardware). I was connected remotely using Putty, doing some stuff, and all of the sudden some commands, like "ls" stopped working, giving a "file or command not found" type of message. I restarted the ssh session, only to find out I couldn't log on any more (access denied). When I got home and rebooted the system, I was greeted with this:Booting 'CentOS (2.6.18-194.el5xen)'root (hd0,0)Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83kernel /boot/xen.gz-2.6. 18-194.el5Error 15: File not foundPress any key to continue...Then I searched about this, found out that the files in /boot/grub/menu.lst did not exist at the specified location (/boot/xen.gz-2.6. 18-194.el5). Somehow I managed to find them in another place, copied them in place, and now I get:Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format
Downloaded the stable kernel 2.6.36.4 from kernel.org/ (Current Kernel:2.6.18-92.el5) However i have extracted the source code .ran make mrproper copied the old configuration file and selected it by using make menuconfig .However after selecting it and clicking ok i m getting following error.
Code: .

I'm trying to install a dual booting machine with OpenSUSE v11.1 32bit and CentOS v5.2 64bit. I installed OpenSUSE first and allowed it to install and configure grub in the MBR and after that I wanted to proceed with CentOS v5.2. The installation went fine with two notable exceptions:- when I had to configure grub installation parameters, CentOS offered me only 2 solutions: either install it on the MBR of the first hard disk or not installing it at all. Other distributions are more flexible allowing you to install it in the boot sector of the root partition for example. Because I didn't want to ruin the existent grub onfiguration, I reluctantly accepted not to install it for CentOS assuming that I could manually configure the entry later in grub's menu.lst file.
- when I was presented with the options for software components installation, I've clicked on virtualization category/function because I intend to use the machine as a VMware host. There was no guidance on screen at that point and I blindly assumed that by choosing the virtualization function I would get necessary tools and drivers that will help me further on. It seems that this was a wrong move as you can see it below.
After completing the installation, I tried to search for a template or guiding on how the menu entry in menu.lst should look like but the grub directory was empty, not surprisingly because I've told CentOS earlier not to install it. Using the files in the /boot directory from the CentOS installation I tried to improvise a menu entry but it's not working. The boot stops with famous Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format. Using the file command to check what kind of files I'm trying to load as kernels I'm getting :

I've been playing around with trying to assemble a bare-bones Linux system on a disk.img file through a loop device. I compiled the most recent stable kernel and then copied it onto the root partition in the image. When I try to boot up into the image using qemu, grub gives me this:
Code: Booting 'tiny' root (hd0,0) Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83 kernel /boot/vmlinux Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format
Press any key to continue... I am confused because I compiled the kernel with 'make bzImage', and the architecture hasn't changed (qemu on the same machine used to build the kernel). So it should be bzImage format. Is that what this Error 13 means, or could it means something else is wrong...?
I have installed win xp(sda1) win 2003(sda2), centos 5 (sda7) and mint 5(sda5) on 4 partitions and swap (sda6).All OS work fine except centos 5. When from the boot menu I choose Centos 5, I get the following error:File system type is ext2fs, partition type 8x83.Kernel /boot/vmlinuz 2.6.18.92.el5xem root/dev/sda7Error 13 invalid or unsupprted excecutable formatBut I 'm sur that I have format /dev/sda7 as ext3
I've just moved a server across to CentOS 5.5 64-bit and I have been trying to get some custom software running on it. However I'm getting an unusual error during run time: sched_setaffinity: Invalid argument I've had this software working on a old versions of Gentoo (2.6.12-gentoo-r6) and Fedora. And the latest version of Ubuntu server 10.04.1. (All 64 bit). It looks remarkable similar to: Core test failed on s390x RHEL6 If v7 bug fix and enhancement update has been incorporated into CentOS 5.5 64 bit yet? Or how I might find out.

I finished downloading of "openSUSE-11.1-KDE4-LiveCD-i686.iso" file. I downloaded it by Opera WB. Then using Nero I burned this file to CD. But there is a problem with boot. Please, make a support to this problem. Maybe file, which is in a site opensuse.org is damaged?

I am trying to install the Nvidia Quadro NVS 110 169.04 drivers but am having issues during install. Prior to attempting my install I did install the kernel-devel rpm so it can compile. after running the RPM I get. Quote: No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; would you like the installer to attempt to download a kernel interface for your kernel from the NVIDIA ftp site [URL]?
which of course does not work. next it says Quote: "No precompiled kernel interface was found to match your kernel; this means that the installer will need to compile a new kernel interface.. i hit okay and move on to. Quote: Error: Unable to find the kernel sources tree for the currently running kernel. Please make sure you have installed the kernel source files for your kernel and that they are properly configured; on Red Hat linux systems, for example be sure you have the 'kernel-source' or 'kernel-devel' RPM installed. if you know the correct kernel source files are installed, you may specify the kernel source path with the "--kernel-source-path' command line option
when i do a paravirtualised install coz fully grey out (how do you get round this) and ftp install path is ftp://192.168.1.1:65354/bie764.iso
i get error:

does it not accept ftp passwords.. what ftp server program (with autostart so it works with crossover linux as i know no other way start apps with that. can try to insta wine but need rpm) will work
I'm trying to install a driver for a Jetway ADPE4S Daughterboard on Ubuntu 10.04 but coming up against some problems. When I use 'make', I get this error: make ARCH=x86_64 CC=cc LD=ld CROSS_COMPILE= V= -C /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.32 M=`pwd` modules make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-source-2.6.32'

Not knowing what to do, I've been playing around with it, and copied the files autoconf.h and auto.conf from a folder '/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.32-25-generic', but that didn't help, it still says "No rule to make target `code'. Stop."
I installed openSUSE on a XP runnng computer and every thing is OK.When I tried to Install a new XP, I got this error:Code:Invalid Partition Table I fixed it by reinstalling GRUB using Rescue System.I tried fix mbr on XP Repair System and I got that error again.Now I want to keep XP and remove openSUSE. But computer only boots by GRUB and XP's boot loader is unable to boot and shows that error
I have a problem installing CentOS 5.5 over lan. I set up a dhcp3 server and it works, client got an ip. I set up a tftpd-hpa server and it works, client can boot the install image of CentOS 5.5 I set up an apache server and it seems to be impossible... In the installation marathon I clicked through the menu to the choice of the web server where my installation files are available. I enter the ip 192.168.138.1 and the path CentOS-5.5 and CentOS tells me "Unable to retrieve http://192.168.138.1//CentOS-5.5/images/stage2.img" . Thats right because the two slashes are not right. Where the hell come the two slashes from???
Has anyone tried to download 11.4 via Torrent? I use Ktorrent and I'm getting Invalid data from tracker error. DVD and CD versions Straight download seems to be working
Ive just installed Debian Lenny and then fglrx and kde, but if i try to login to kde, i get an error message because of invalid user. Do I have to enable my user first to login to kde or something?
I have installed Windows 7 followed by Fedora 11. Everytime I install Fedora 11 with Win 7, the first to boot, I get BOOTMGR missing. Later I used "df -h" command to see the disk file usage fdisk -l" to see the info regarding Disk Partitions. Went into the /boot/grub/menu.lst and modified the order. I set the partition where I find the bootmgr.exe.mui, there was another file named "memtest.exe.mui in the same file.
I navigated to the above said through Fedora 11. Located inside the Win 7 installed directory /boot/en-US/
When I changed the menu.lst file, I get a new error Error 12: Invalid device requested when I tried to boot Win 7. Does that mean that Fedora 11 GRUB is not getting the bootmgr.exe.mui since its 2 levels inside the boot directory ??
I've been trying to install Vmware Workstation and keep getting an error about Kernel Headers missing! Although I am pretty sure I have the headers installed for my system. It's looking for the PAE version of my headers which I believe it doesn't exist!
I have a problem with loading the powersaving kernel module p4-clockmod.ko. When I try inserting the module (via modprobe or insmod) I get FATAL: Error inserting p4_clockmod (/lib/modules/2.6.31.8-mediaserver/extra/p4-clockmod.ko): Invalid module format The module has been compiled together with the kernel. Other modules load with no problem at all. I've tried recompiling the kernel (after re-installing the sources, make xconfig from scratch) - no avail. There's only one kernel source package installed. Searching the forum and google didn't yield a helping answer.
My organization just moved to using a zscaler proxy system. Basically, I have to use a .pac file in Firefox to get onto the proxy, which directs me to a series of two Flash pages, one to input my username, one for the password. After reading through the .pac file, I was able to get some command-line things to work by specifying the proxy given at the end. However, this server uses an SSL certificate that is not emitted by an authority, but rather directly by our organization. In Firefox, I had to import this certificate to enable https:// browsing.
Is there any way to "import" this certificate so that yum can use it? Because yum freezes with the error: Code: Could not get metalink [URL] error was 14: Peer cert cannot be verified or peer cert invalid
I have a something.gz file. When I type gunzip -c something.gz this commend open the file but at the end of the file I get an error message invalid compressed data--length error. Also if I type more at the and of this commend like gunzip -c something.gz | more, file would not open. It gives some meaningless characters.I want to open this file with more.

I've just purchased HP Mini 5103 with preinstaled SLED, but I want to replace with 11.3. But I have serious problem with booting from USB. Due to problem with BIOS bug/feature, 5103 is unabled to boot using USB with recursive partition (which is created from hybrid openSUSE-11.3-KDE4-LiveCD-i686.iso either with ImageWriter of dd). When I create bootable USB with syslinux and copying of iso to existing partition, I ended with error "failed to detect CD/DVD or USB drive" (I have tried also both initrdud files, older one failed with "failed to detect USB", newer with "failed to detect CD"). I have also tried to install from full openSUSE-11.3-DVD-i586.iso which I have copied to USB using Unetbootin, but with this bootable USB I ended with "invalid or corrupt kernel image".
i wanted to see the red hat side of things and do some virtualization with CentOS, so i am trying to dual boot ubuntu 10.04 LTS and CentOS 5.5. the machine is a laptop, toshiba A100 series. what I did was to create the following partitioning scheme via Ubuntu LiveCd
Code: Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sda1 * 1 19457 156288290+ 5 Extended /dev/sda5 1 2103 16892284+ 83 Linux /dev/sda6 2104 9988 63336231 83 Linux /dev/sda7 9995 12623 21117411 83 Linux /dev/sda8 12624 18800 49616721 83 Linux /dev/sda9 18801 19457 5277321 82 Linux swap / Solaris
created an extended partition and in there have made sda5 and sda6 as / and home for ubuntu and sda7 and sda8 as / and home for CentOS. and sda9 as swap. I installed ubuntu first and then installed CentOS with no bootloader. Run sudo update-grub through ubuntu and now i have both Ubuntu and CentOS available. But when i select CentOS, i have an error which reads "invalid magic number".
I have grub2 installed, haven't downgraded or done anything to it and the ubuntu install is fresh, one week since i updated to 10.04 from scratch. I have found much contradictory stuff on google, but not something that provides a definite solution and also this post but the second command provided in the solution is one i cannot understand very well and it doesn't seem to work. what I am doing wrong here and how to make this work. I would prefer to do things via Ubuntu since debian stuff is what i am comfortable with and i am installing CentOS to learn not to do work on it.
i followed the install method in the g95.org as follows.Installation Notes Unix (Linux/OSX/Solaris/Irix/etc.): Open a console, and go to the directory in which you want to install g95. To download and install g95, run the following commands:
wget -O - http://ftp.g95.org/g95-x86-linux.tgz | tar xvfz -
everything seemed to work fine. the g95 command in terminal prompted a "no input files" so it seemed to work. i made a quick hello program to test and i get these errors.
/tmp/cc3Ugii1.s: Assembler messages:
/tmp/cc3Ugii1.s:11: Error: suffix or operands invalid for `push'
tested the program with gfortran and it worked fine. i googled around a little and it appears that the error have something to do with a 64 bit 32bit problem. i mean like the compiler is expecting 64 bit, but libraries are 32 bit. or somthing like that.
