Fedora :: F11 Update Slowed Down Boot Up Process

Jul 24, 2009

Everything seems to be fine and everything boots up in fedora 11 still; However, the recent updates to my system really hangs my boot time up and it takes a while for it to boot strangely... don't know what exactly could be going on really, but it's doing this for the current and previous kernel of F11. I'm on Fedora 11 32bit x86. My log file: [URL]

Fedora Installation :: Process Slowed Down When Set Root Password

Jun 10, 2009

I am trying to install F11 on an IBM Netvista 8307. Everything works fine until I set the root password. When I click next, the installation just hangs. The DVD checks out as not having any errors. Not sure what to do. The installation was not locking up, it just took a long time to go to the next page.

Fedora :: Yum Update Install New Kernel - Boot Process Stuck

Mar 24, 2010

I'm not sure what caused it, but it happened right after running 'yum update'. It may be because it installed a new kernel, and there are now two kernels listed in my grub.conf and at boot; 2.6.31 and 2.6.32. System boots through a list of things it's starting up and stalls out at ATL or ADL or ADM maybe. It hangs there for a minute or so then flickers. This happens every time at boot. It's a bit difficult to post more information since I can't get past that part of the boot process, and I can't seem to be able to skip it either. It may be worth mentioning that this is a mini-itx motherboard. Intel Atom 330 1.6, 2GB DDR2, onboard GeForce 9400m. It's a zotac ionitx-a-u. I've installed a fresh copy of Fedora 12 lxde.

CentOS 5 :: Incredibly Slowed Down After 5.3 Update ?

Apr 12, 2009

I was using Compaq nx6310 Laptop with Centos 5.2 for some time and I ran into no problems. However every software installed on my Laptop incredibly slowed down after update to 5.3, It took me 8 mins to open firefox, log into and post to this forum. I don't know if related but I have strange values in system monitor, and the cpu usage is 60% to 80% most of the time even if there is no software running in the foreground.

OpenSUSE Install :: 11.2 - Boot Slowed By HDD Speed Testing

Aug 2, 2010

Each time I boot my opensuse 11.2 system one of the very first things that happens is that the system seems to test how fast it can handle my HDD, an older EIDE drive with the wide ribbon cable. This takes about a minute, one test each 15 secs or so until it gets down to about 33 speed and then the boot proceeds as normal.

I guess this is just the normal testing by the more advanced sata procedures in the kernel (2.6.34). If I were only booting this machine once every 6 months it would not be an issue, but I do so at least once a day. Is there any way to indicate to the system the speed of the connection so that it does not have to do the test, or close the gap a bit so that it finds the answer more quickly?

Fedora :: Way To Reduce Running Time / Memory Requirement Of Update Process?

Aug 14, 2010

I have an Acer Aspire netbook with 1GB RAM and 1.6 GHz dual-core 32-bit x86 chips. The KPackageKit / yum / rpm chain is running too slow for me. In addition to the time required to download any new packages or updates, it seems to require at least one full minute of processing time to install each package, update, or bug fix, no matter how small. Another full minute is consumed for each package in "cleaning up."Running yum from the command line takes nearly the same amount of time.During this time, I cannot run any other applications without severe thrashing. It seems that a full gigabyte of memory is in use with some 100M swapped out to disk.

Is there any way to reduce the running time and memory requirement of the update process?While not updating or installing software, I do not normally run out of memory (i.e. begin thrashing) until I have about a dozen browser tabs open, or the like.

Fedora :: What Is Process To Make Disk Boot-able?

May 5, 2010

im looking to boot a PC104+ from a linux floppy...

a) what version should i use that would fit and boot on a floppy?

b) is there any place i can still easily find that version?

c) what is the process (if any) to make the disk bootable (like msdos boot format)

d) can this boot floppy then be installed on a local drive?

i know that seems like a lot but they all kind of go hand in hand from my experience using DOS in such a way. im still out there searching but kudos to anyone who can help.

Fedora :: Strange Characters In First Boot Process

Jun 5, 2010

I did a minimal install of Fedora 13 (i686), added X Window & LXDE groupinstalls, and xorg-x11-fonts-base, switched to level 5 in /etc/inittab.When rebooting, the First Process indeed starts, but any character seems to be replaced with squares. What am I missing ?

Fedora Installation :: F12 64 Bit - Starts The Boot Process And Then It Hangs

Dec 28, 2009

I'm attempting to install F12 64 bit. I currently have F10 running on this system. I'd like to do a clean install. I'm using the DVD. I boot the computer with the DVD in. I choose the first option (Install or upgrade). It starts the boot process and then it hangs. [URL]

After asking at #Fedora I was given the advice to boot with `intel_iommu=off`. That gets me slightly further in the process. It gets to the point where anaconda is starting. Then all heck breaks loose. It appears the monitor loses the signal from the computer (power light turns red just like if the computer was off). The caps lock and the scroll lock lights on the keyboard blink about once a second. The DVD drive continues to spin for about a minute and then stops. Since I have no display, I have no idea what's going on.

Fedora :: Scrolling Text During Boot Process Instead Of 'loading Bar'?

Jun 4, 2009

This doesnt really bother me at all, Im more curious than anything but- When I first installed fedora 9, during startup there was a bootsplash during the boot process. When the kernal was updated, the bootsplash was replaced with scrolling text (I have done several kernal updates, it was after the first one the scrolling text happened). Is there a way of reverting back to the bootsplash or is it more trouble than what its worth?

Fedora Installation :: Boot From Installation DVD - Boot Process Doesn't Make It Even To Anaconda

Jun 15, 2009

I'm trying to install F11 on a machine that was running well under F10 just a few hours ago. I made some changes to the disk configuration, involving the addition of a dmraid-controllable fakeRAID card (SiL 3124 I think) and creating a RAID 0 array out of the two drives connected to the motherboard itself (Intel ICH7R). Otherwise the machine's configuration is identical to the way it was when running F10. My problem is thus: when I boot from the installation DVD (64-bit), the boot process doesn't make it even to anaconda. Here is the error I get, right after md devices are autoconfigured:

Fedora Installation :: How And When To Load Kernel Module In Boot Up Process?

Jul 19, 2010

For a diskfull node (the OS installed in a disk), I can use the 'insmod' command to insert a kernel module into the kernel. And after the reboot, the module is still in the kernel. I have a question here: how, when and which kernel module will be loaded in the boot up process for a diskfull node?And for the diskless node, can I use the chroot or some other ways to install the kernel modules into ramdisk, so that kernel module can work when the diskless node boot up? I think it needs certain mechanism to load the kernel like the boot up of diskfull node.

Fedora :: Microcode - Boot Process Hangs At Startx Time

Sep 4, 2010

Ever since the kernel update to 2.6.34.6-47.fc13.x86_64, my boot process hangs at about startx time. I boot cleanly at runlevel 3 in either this or the previous 2.6.33.8 kernel. If I execute startx from here (in either kernel), the system hangs at the same place. During the early troubleshooting, I read in another thread (250929) about installing xorg-x11-drv-catalyst, which I did using yum. This led to the failure of the 2.6.33 kernel; yum remove did not fix this. I have carefully followed the instructions in the fglrx HOWTO (updated a week ago by Hlingler) as they relate to a PAE kernel (including reinstalling mesa-libGL), and that fixed earlier difficulties. Hence, I felt I needed a new thread.

dmesg tells me
Code:
microcode: CPU0: patch_level=0x2000032
platform microcode: firmware: requesting amd-ucode/microcode_amd.bin
Linux video capture interface: v2.00
piix4_smbus 0000:00:14.0: SMBus Host Controller at 0xb00, revision 0
microcode: CPU1: patch_level=0x2000032
platform microcode: firmware: requesting amd-ucode/microcode_amd.bin
microcode: Microcode Update Driver: v2.00 .....

But the program itself reports
Code:
# microcode_ctl -h
This program is for updating the microcode on Intel processors belonging to the IA32 family - PentiumPro upwards (x86-64 included). It depends on the Linux kernel driver. The website urbanmyth.org/microcode (mentioned by yum info microcode_ctl) clearly indicates that Intel has taken over this microcodecode distribution, and suggests that it is no longer valid for AMD processors.

I found a reference to a kernel configuration flag CONFIG_MICROCODE_AMD (as a plausible subsititute for CONFIG_MICROCODE_INTEL) that possibly belongs in a script in /etc/init.d - but the above context leads me to suspect this is not true any more. In any event, those flags are not mentioned anywhere in my init.d scripts - in fact nowhere in the entire /etc tree. My microcode file exists, and is dated March 23. How do I get it installed? Or is this completely unrelated to my hanging boot problem, as suggested by the "platform microcode" line in the dmesg output? If so, where should I be looking?

Fedora :: RAID5 Failure During The Boot Process, And Can't Find The Array?

Mar 31, 2011

I am able to retrieve data off a RAID5 array. History: My system disk was partitioned to 10 gigs and over time was filled up to 100% locking me out of the GUI (I am a casual user). Now that I am relegated to the CLI, I need help to see if rebuilding the array and keeping the data intact is possible. I have three sata hard drives in the array and now it appears during the boot process, it fails and can't find the array.

I did the following:
mdadm -D /dev/md0

and here's some of the output:

State: active, FAILED, Not Started

And out of three drives, it states that two have failed. I find this hard to believe as I have had no issues until my system disk was full. A coworker today helped me find some files to delete and now have the system disk down to 97%/8.8 gigs yet I can still not enter the GUI due to the array issue.

Out of the three discs, here are the results (taken also from mdadm -D /dev/md0):

Number Major Minor RAID device STATE
0 8 1 0 active sync /dev/sda1
1 0 0 1 removed
2 0 0 2 removed

Sorry for providing so little, but I am in (Repair Filesystem) mode and only have local access to the machine meaning all outputs will need to be retyped.

I am able to do anything to the box as its only purpose was media storage and serving.

Red Hat / Fedora :: Pauses During Boot - Error Occurred During Network Process

Jun 6, 2011

While booting my fedora15, it gets stuck for about 5-6 minutes. Previously there was no problem. I don't know what made this problem. After going through the boot process, error occurred during network process. Using following command I got the result.

Code: # systemctl status network.service
network.service - LSB: Bring up/down networking
Loaded: loaded (/etc/rc.d/init.d/network)
Active: failed since Sun, 05 Jun 2011 21:13:55 +0545; 11h ago
Process: 845 ExecStart=/etc/rc.d/init.d/network start (code=exited, status=1/FAILURE)
CGroup: name=systemd:/system/network.service

Also right after the long pause following messages are printed
Code: 261.742053 usb4-1: device not accepting address 4 error -7
261.794087 hub4-0.1.0: unable to enumerate usb device on ports

I noted it down as soon as I saw the message after that long pause.

Ubuntu Installation :: 8.04 To 9.10 Upgrade Slowed System Too Much

Mar 2, 2010

I upgraded several months ago from 8.04 to 9.10 and found my system slowed considerably.I thought I'd get used to it, but it just seems to really drag. I'd like some suggestions on how to downgrade or alternatively speed up the system (are there items I can "turn off" that can bring back the speediness of 8.04?).I'm considering wiping and re-installing, but getting my system back the way I want it is keeping me from doing that.

Ubuntu :: Transmission Port Forward / Internet Slowed Down

May 16, 2010

While I have Transmission running, whether it be up/downloading or just open with one thing unpaused and no activity, all other computer functions that need internet access are unusable. Transmission says my port is closed in its preferences.

1. How do I find and open port?
2. Will finding an open port solve the problem of all things internet not working while Transmission is?
3. Do I need to create a static ip in order to forward a port through my router?
4. Will creating a static ip and forwarding that port solve my problem of only being able to use the internet while Transmission is on?

Ubuntu :: 10.4 Slowed Down To Crawl - Actions Taking Forever

Oct 5, 2010

I am a newbie to Linux, and so just installed Ubuntu.. for the first week all was fantastic, but now, everything has slowed down. It seems to run fine for a few minutes and then everything slows down. I try and drag a window or open a menu, type, anything, and it takes forever! Also the internet seems to stop working on a regular basis. I have checked processes to see if there was anything happening and one of the processors was sitting at 100%, but no actual processes in the list seemed to be using any processing power at all!

Ubuntu :: Noticeable Sluggishness In Miro - Slowed To Crawl

Sep 1, 2011

Has anyone else who uses Miro noticed a very noticeable sluggishness to it lately? It's been a bit since I've used it, but opened it up today, and it's just performing at a crawl, not to mention sucking up a goodly amount of CPU cycles (process "miro.real"). I've tried the Repo version 3.5.x as well as the PPA version 4.0.3, both are just as slow and as choppy as it can be in 11.04. Any thoughts, or anyone just want to share my misery? It loves company...

Fedora :: F11 Does Not Boot After Update

Sep 13, 2009

I updated my fedora 11 kernel version 2.6.30.5-43.fc11.i586 and when I restart, it doesn't boot. Here's how I updated. What I wanted to do was to install manpages-dev. So I go to system-> Administration-> Software sources and tick the last (fedora rawhide) and run yum update. I tried to boot from old kernel 2.6.29.6-217-2.8.fc11.i586 but still the same. I'm afraid I won't be able to boot fedora.

Software :: Keyboard In Slackware-13.0 - Getting Double Letters All Over The Place - Cursor Blink Has Slowed Too Near Zero

Jun 1, 2010

I have XFCE and xorg-server-1.7.7 in slackware64-13.0. I have my keyboard set up in xorg.conf. X ignores that and takes info from hal. So I have a US keyboard, when I have a UK/IE keyboard actually. When I added openoffice, i found I was getting double letters am getting double letters all over the place, and the cursor blink has slowed too near zero. So when I want to remove them again, the mouse will not land the cursor in the middle of a word to delete the extras. An average of 3 double letters are happening each line. Mouse sometimes works to remove them, usually not. I have set 'repeat delay' at maximum, 'repeat speed' & 'blink delay' at minimum. No effect. Disabled key repeat - still happens.

Fedora Installation :: F12 - Cannot Boot After First Update

I have successfully installed Fedora 12 today on a Dell M6400 from a live usb stick. Everything went very well. After the installation I rebooted, and updated the system. Then rebooted again, and now I get this message. No bootable partition in table. Apparently something in the update is broken... Is there a buggy kernel version I should be aware of? Should mention that I have two disks in a hardware raid 1. I left a none-bootable USB key in the computer when rebooting.

Fedora :: Cannot Boot After FC13 Update

Sep 30, 2010

I have been running FC13 for some time now without any problems on my HP dc5800 Microtower. Recently I ran a software update, and when I rebooted the machine I got a blank screen with only a blinking underscore in the upper-left corner. Rebooted several times to no avail. I thought perhaps I had made a mistake, so I just reinstalled. I have tried reinstalling several times now with both 32-bit and 64-bit FC13, each time with the same result: everything works fine up until I install software updates; then after the next reboot I get a blank screen with the blinking underscore. I see the POST screen, and then it just goes blank. It doesn't seem to respond to any keyboard/mouse input; I eventually have to hold down the power button to make it power off.
