Fedora :: Command Failed: Can Not Access Device?

Jan 5, 2010

I updated quite a lot - kernel, selinux policies, initscripts, glibc and a lot more - and after reboot one filesystem does not mount. It says:Command failed: Can not access device... and asks for password. This is: RAID -> LVM (mirrored) -> LUKS -> ext3. Similar filesystem (raid->lvm(not mirrored)->luks->ext3) mounts fine. Mounting the problematic system by hand works fine. During boot, the lvm blockdev is named by UUID in crypttab, and the name used in fstab.

Of course I removed it from fstab to boot now. I tried downgrading initscripts so far, will try others. What I also noticed is that the emergency shell (bash) complains about something, I'd need to write it down next time I reboot; also "lvs" fails when / is ro, but maybe that's normal, dunno.Googling for the error message brought something about cryptsetup, but I didn't upgrade it (there is no upgrade available), and all I gather from it is that the error message might really mean something else, like device is already mapped.

It is probably something related to lvm mirrors, maybe also to luks, though the only related package in the list is the kernel, maybe the module-init-tools. SELinux seems not to be the cause, booting with permissive has the same problem. What I wrote above, leads me to thinking that luks is trying to set up lvm mirrors in parallel as they have the same uuid, but a) later during boot the mapping name is not there b) I have no idea what reads crypttab

Fedora X86/64bit :: Device-mapper - Reload Ioctl Failed - Invalid Argument Failed To Suspend LogVol00

Sep 10, 2009

I've read hundreds of threads on this problem but they seem to be intermittent and the resolution has been using a different kernel version.

I'm using the latest kernel but I still have this problem

Running Logical Volume Manager gui and attempting to extend the volume results in the same error.

Fedora :: XFS Mount Failed - Device Or Resource Busy

Sep 8, 2011

After upgrading to fedora 15, I have problems mounting XFS filesystem.

The short tale:
Code:
08:01:38 localhost root>mount -t xfs -vv /dev/sdb1 /data/disks/old
mount: /dev/sdb1 already mounted or /data/disks/old busy
08:01:39 localhost root>fuser /data/disks/old
08:01:41 localhost root>lsof /data/disks/old
08:01:44 localhost root>xfs_repair -t 1 /dev/sdb1
xfs_repair: cannot open /dev/sdb1: Device or resource busy
08:01:48 localhost root>fuser -mu /dev/sdb1
08:02:08 localhost root>dmesg | tail -n 5
[1655779.759764] SGI XFS Quota Management subsystem
[1659275.905756] SGI XFS with ACLs, security attributes, large block/inode numbers, no debug enabled
[1659275.908745] SGI XFS Quota Management subsystem
[1659389.154986] SGI XFS with ACLs, security attributes, large block/inode numbers, no debug enabled
[1659389.156519] SGI XFS Quota Management subsystem

Device is not mounted, and directory is not in use, it has just been created. There is nothing in log files that could remotely point the cause. After removing device (echo 1 > /sys/block/sdb/device/delete) and reattaching it, disk started working.

Fedora Networking :: Eth0 Connection Failed - Device Not Managed By NetworkManager

Aug 10, 2010

Yesterday I did an upgrade and today my box is unable to connect to the internet.

I have tried another cable, it didn't help.

Basically NetworkManager does not connect eth0 to the network, if I try to run ifup from the command line I get:

Code:

I can see in network configuration settings, that the device has been correctly detected and eth0 interface is correctly activated, yet when I try to uncheck the box manage by NetworkManager and start it manually, it tells me that the cable is disconnected... I've tried two different cables, different ports on my router - no help.

Fedora Installation :: Install Ok - But Boot Failed - No Root Device Found

Nov 21, 2010

I have 2 Debian OS's and wanted to put Fedora next to it.

Install went ok, but after rebooting it says: "No root device found. Boot has failed, sleeping forever."

During install from the live CD I didn't "v" the boot (efi or something?) because I thought Grub would take care of everything.

Should I just reinstall again and choose the Fedora bootloader? Won't it mess up Grub?

Red Hat / Fedora :: Mailserver Have To Have Direct Access To WAN Or Can It Be A LAN Device With Just One NIC ?

Apr 22, 2010

Does a mailserver have to have direct access to WAN or can it be a LAN device with just one NIC ?

We have two WAN access points.

One is an adsl router joined to the switch and all seems fine for internet browsing.

The other is a wireless system with a linksys router joining by way of PPPoE and this appears to connect fine.

This PPPoE is direct to our ISP and where we need to downlod our mail to our pending mailserver.

When the linksys router is also joined to the switch all devices can use either the adsl or linksys to roam the net. 192.168.1.1 linksys & 192.168.1.10 is adsl.

When I join the linksys direct to the mailserver I will then need two NIC's. One for the Linksys and one for the LAN.

This is where the fun has started.

So.... Can I just have one NIC (connected to the switch) on the mailserver?

Fedora :: Access The Network - Eth0 - IPv4 Failed

Jan 23, 2011

I'm working in windows, and that's why I have been able to access the network. In F14, I was able to access the router address while the internet access ain't. Tried restarting network, and still the problem persists. Tried [URL] and the only thing that i've infered is that IPv4 Failed: FATAL plus, the routing table showed 0.0.0.0 as one of the entries (Gateway). So, i've deleted the wired network configuration from the Network Configuration and checked whether the os would pick it up automatically. It still didn't work.

Fedora :: Connect A Bluetooth Device With The Command Rfcomm?

Mar 11, 2010

First, excuse me for my bad english I want to connect a bluetooth device with the command rfcomm. In a terminal, I put the command :

Code:
rfcomm connect 0 00:80:98:E4:07:53
And the system answers :
Code:
Connected /dev/rfcomm0 to 00:80:98:E4:07:53 on channel 1
Press CTRL-C for hangup

On fedora 10, or 11, I can use this command with all users. On fedora 12, only the root user can connect and use this device. Other users have the message :

Code:
Can't open RFCOMM device: Permission denied What can I do to resolve this problem?

Fedora Installation :: Moving FC10 From SATA To PATA - Unable To Access Resume Device

Jan 26, 2010

I'm trying to move an existing FC10 install (created by someone else) from a 160GB WD1600AAJS SATA disk to a 160GB WD1600AAJB PATA disk (cursed trend of horizontally mounting SATA connectors at the end of the motherboard means the latest rev mobo doesn't fit in our enclosure!). I've used DD to copy the disk image from one to the other, but when attempting to boot, I get the following error:

Code:

Unable to access resume device (UUID=946f216f-0c24-4b02-a996-f42059970de7)
mount: error mounting /dev/root on /sysroot as ext3: no such file or directory

That particular UUID maps to sda2, which is the swap partition. Interestingly, both the SATA and PATA disk come up as /dev/sda on the motherboard. I kind of grok that the UUIDs are substitutes for directly naming the disks, and that they're referred to in fstab, initrd-2.6.27.12-170.2.5.fc10.i686.img, and in /dev/disk/by-* I'm guessing the problem is that the GUIDs (at least the one for swap) are no longer the same. How are they assigned to the partitions during boot?

I tried doing

Code:

swapoff -a
mkswap /dev/sda2
swapon -a

and put that new GUID in fstab and into initrd-* (using some steps I found elsewhere on how to gunzip/rezip it).At that point, I get a kernel panic on boot

Code:

Kernel panic - not syncing: CFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)

So I'm guessing that the other UUUDs have changed as well and I need to update them. How would I figure out what they are? I suppose I could change the references to /dev/sda*, but I didn't build this original image and I'm thinking whoever did had a good reason to go with UUIDs.

Fedora :: How To Access The Grub Or Command Line

Dec 18, 2009

with that said i burned fedora 8, 10, and 11 checked the sha1 verified everything was fine i had originally installed fedora 8 on an old pc i had from windows XP without any problems messed with it some, upgraded to 10 again no problems. tired to update 11 got a message about ext3 not found ext4 not found, re installed 10 the loader loads up now i have a blank screen with a cursor it the left hand corner

again i had 10 installed fine prior to all this can any one point me in the right direction to solve this issue or am i way over my head trying to figure this stuff out. i have spent 3 days searching these forums.

i'm just not quite sure what i need to do. oh, i tried to install 8 again and it wouldn't take either. i think the 10 problem has something to do with the graphic driver it's a geforce 7400 nvidia and something to do with the grub, but like i said i get a blinking cursor and not quite sure how to access the grub or command line.

Fedora :: Access Machine In Command Line Mode

my fedora 14 did an automatic update tonight and on reboot it hangs displaying the "f" before the login in menu. The "f" is how I now feel.I do "fn+f2" as it is booting and it displays the sequence of loading items which report all is "ok" until it gets to "jexec services" and then it hangs.I do not know how to access the machine in command line mode and I am not sure what to do from here. I beleive the "jexec service" is a Sun Java item but I am not sure.
