Fedora Installation :: ERROR: Your Architecture, 'x86_64', Is Not Supported By The
May 10, 2009
I have downloaded Fedora 11 x64, and I went to the adobe website and downloaded the tar.gz file for flash player. I went into the terminal to untar the file and after I did that I tried to install it and got this error :
ERROR: Your architecture, 'x86_64', is not supported by the Adobe Flash Player installer. What does this mean? My dad could get his to install but his is 32 bit.Do I have to wait until the full version is out?
osdlyrics_0.3.20100604-1~lucid1_i386.deb Ubuntu x86 32 bit deb package for Ubuntu 10.04 or later wont install. I'm running ubuntu 10.4 64bit. My question is why you can't install 32bit programs on a 64bit system? If you can then how do I do it? 64bit should run 32bit due to the resin that a 16bit system ran 8bit games/programs. I know in window 7 you can install 32bit programs on 64bit system.
While searching for the maximum numbers of CPUs supported by CentOS 5 x86_64 I found the following page: [URL] The question I have regarding the specified information ("64/255" logical CPUs) is, which number means what. Does this mean 64 real CPUs with a maximum of 255 cores/hyperthreaded CPUs or something similar or totally different?
Attempting to compile an application that is not located in any of the repos yet for 11.3 64 bit. I have downloaded the appropriate src and untarred it. However, when I attempt to run the ./configure command here is the error I receive. checking build system type... Invalid configuration `x86_64-unknown-linux-': machine `x86_64-unknown-linux' not recognized configure: error: /bin/sh ./config.sub x86_64-unknown-linux- failed
I have made sure that I have all kernel-headers packages installed and am unsure as how to proceed. I tried using the command "./configure --build=x86_64" and then receive an error stating that the "SYSTEM IS NOT SUPPORTED" and continued errors stating that gcc is not installed, eve though it is.
I am getting the below Issue while cloning Oracle Database Server 10.2.0.5 from cold Backup dump. its happening during "perl adcfgclone.pl appsTier". Can anyone help on this issue..? find the error details below.
SQL*Plus: Release 10.2.0.5.0 - Production on Sat Aug 6 12:10:08 2011 Copyright (c) 1982, 2010, Oracle. All Rights Reserved.
I clicked on i386 instead of x86 64. The box is laptop AMD64, and I stopped the upgrade at this point: Should I continue it and change later? Or delete files and start again?
This was my problem for installing: [URL]. Now I downloaded ubuntu server edition, and typed sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop, so it did. Now I am starting my PC up, and I can't get past "waiting mouse" image and the background of the splash screen. I am on this error for a week or so already!
I recently tried to upgrade from Ubuntu 10.10 to 11.04. At first, the installation seemed to go smoothly, but when I tried to boot up, my screen displayed the following error message:
Input Not Supported
I am unsure how this is happening, since I was able to install 10.10 successfully. To better assist, I am attaching detailed information about my computer system.
I just downloaded the Fedora 10 cd yesterday and decided to install it. I had a partition for Fedora on my system before but I'm not really sure what I did to it. It wasn't booting and it has been so long since I messed with it I just decided to reinstall with the latest (I think I was running F9 previously). So I pop in the live CD, run the install, and then reboot into Ubuntu. I modified my menu.lst to include the new vmlinuz and initrd versions, as well as the new UUID of the partition. Now when I reboot and choose Fedora from grub's menu I get this error:

Error 18: Selected cylinder exceeds maximum supported by BIOS
I found this wiki which does a pretty good job describing the problem:
[URL]
However, I'm still unable to get this to work. According to many different sites out there this problem shouldn't exist on newer computers. Well, I just recently put a new motherboard into this box -- it's this one:
[URL]
According to their BIOS page the first release of this was late November 2008. Yes they have had 2 updates since then but it looks like those only serve to support AM3 CPUs (which I don't have) or update some audio playback issues. I seriously doubt I need to update my BIOS to get this to work.
Here's my fdisk:
Code:
$ sudo fdisk -l Disk /dev/sda: 400.0 GB, 400088457216 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 48641 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

I can get Slackware 12.1 to boot (though it kernel panics during startup...not sure what I did to make it angry), but grub immediately fails when I attempt to boot Fedora. Here's the entry from menu.lst:
Quote:
titleFedora 10 (on /dev/sdb1) root(hd1,0) kernel/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686 ro root=UUID=178bc9f9-76ba-48aa-a588-de978cc1eee1 rhgb quiet
[code]...
I have verified that the vmlinuz and initrd are both correct. I put the UUID in there after running vol_id so I'm sure the entry is solid. I have tried making it "root=/dev/sdb1" which failed with the same error, and I even tried copying the fc10 vmlinuz and initrd files over to my Ubuntu partition (which controls grub) but for some odd reason the cp command takes a really long time and then I eventually get this weird error for initrd:
I got the same error with the dd command too. So I was going to just try and copy the files to my sdb3 partition and then modify the menu.lst entry appropriately but that doesn't seem to be plausible at this point.
I have a motherboard that was just released about 4 months ago, an Athlon X2 6000+ CPU, and 4gigs of RAM. The drives are both SATA 300 drives...it's not like this is some old Pentium Pro and the BIOS just doesn't support large drives...this is a brand new system with a very recent BIOS version.
I have successfully quadruple booted all of these in the past, but that may have been prior to the new motherboard. So that makes me think it could be something related to the motherboard but the thing is so much newer than what I previously had, certainly that can't be the problem...can it? Then I remember that Slackware boots, so if it's truly something about how the BIOS can't access some file beyond a particular section of the disk, then it doesn't make any sense that it can book slackware. Fedora is the first partition, Slackware is the last and is like 200+ GB into the disk.
I have just installed a Canon Pixma iP2200 on Fedora 14. The installation 'seemed' to go OK but whenever I try to print anything I get the following error:
"There was an error during the CUPS operation: 'client-error-document-format-not-supported'."
I have done a bit of searching and the only advice i could find is to uncomment some lines in /etc/cups/mime.convs and /etc/cups/mime.types but I don't have either of those files!
A neighbor of mine just got a Canon Pixma MP450 printer, to replace an old HP printer, and I am trying to get it to work with Fedora 11 installation from a machine they have borrowed from me. The printer gets recognized upon plugging it in but when I try to print a test page from the printer properties I receive the following error:'client-error-document-format-not-supported'
The driver that is selected for the printer is "Generic Driver" I have tried to select a driver but have not found any Canon drivers from the selection dialog box. After searching the web I see mention of a Canon MP150 driver working for the MP450 but I have not found this driver. Is there a driver I have to install from YUM or download from Canon? Are there others successfully using this printer and if so what have they done to get it to work?
On a fresh installation of F12 and F13 I have had issues getting the multimedia codecs working properly. I have followed the tutorial that I was pointed to and it doesn't seem to work..
[URL]
There is a note in there that reads as follows:"NOTE: There is significant variation depending on your architecture (i386, x86_64, ppc). This step is really only beneficial to 32bit i386 users."
What is the step for the x86_64 users? Are there special codecs I can't find on the net that I need to be installing? Should these just be extracted in the /usr/lib64/codecs directory?
I am posting from my brand new F13 x86_64 system. I am, however, having some problems to get the system fully online with the software I use (I couldn't even update) because YUM (terminal, yumex, etc) is painfully slow. I am behind a really fast connection so I know the problem lies outside.
Is there some method to force YUM to use the fastest repo available? Ok, or at least to try another one?
Fedora (2.6.34.6-47.fc13.x86_64) I installed that update, during the installation process it said that it had to remove three packages, one of them was kmod nvidia for the old kernel (Fedora (2.6.33.8-149.fc13.x86_64))After the update finished installing the new kernel, I restarted the system and Nvidia did not load. (I assume because Update manager removed the old nvidia? But I also assumed that a new version would be installed automatically?)I received the following Boot messages:
Code:
Entering non-interactive startup Starting monitoring for VG vg_user1: 3 logical volume(s) in volume group "vg_user1" monitored
[code]....
I'm confused, if Update Manager removed kmod nvidia, then why does yum say it is installed? And why doesn't the new kernel update work with that version? Or should I install a driver version for that particular kernel? I've read while searching that I need to install a kmod-nvidia for that particual kernel version and that I should login to my previous kernel until that happens, is that the problem I'm having?
Why don't rpmfusion and fedoraproject release the kmod-nvidia and kernel updates at the same time to avoid problems such as this? Does anyone know how long does it usually take for rpmfusion to release the new kmod-nvidia driver for the latest kernel?
I am having a rather odd problem on my Ubuntu 11.04 installation on a 32-bits Intel Core 2 Quad system. When I try to install packages that are not in the repositories, I keep getting the message " Wrong architecture 'i386' " in the Ubuntu Software Center. I have downloaded several packages for 32-bits systems and get the same error every time, for instance., with the Linux 32-bits Debian package for Teamviewer.
In addition to the PC, I have a laptop with an amd64, and I have transfered the pkglist from that machine to my PC to get the same environment. Could that cause any problems of the sort above?
I'm trying to test out UEFI boot and install with Fedora 13. It looks like it is not supported...at least not in the standard x86-64 DVD image. Running 'dumpet' on the .iso shows no EFI boot section (whereas, for example, RHEL6 Beta-2 x86-64 DVD .iso does show one); see output below. Will there [ever] be UEFI supported boot/install CD/DVD .isos for Fedora?
Installing f10 on an x86_64 platform from CD or netinst. I can't seem to find a way to have it install i386 compatible (32-bit) software at the same time. Is there a repo that has to be enabled? In f8 i think it was just a box to click somewhere.
I've tried to upgrade with prepupgrade and also to boot from F11 DVD, but just after anaconda starts, it hangs. (Just about when X starts) Maybe my hardware isn't supported yet or something but I can't find out. I don't find any anaconda log-file or anything to give me a clue what goes wrong.
Recently I tried to install Fedora 12 x86_64 to my laptop. I ran the live fedora image from my cooldisk and then pressed "Install to Hard Drive" from live desktop. Then I went forward until I reached the partitioning section. Though I had ~28GB free space in my Harddrive, but it says: "Could not allocate requested partitions: not enough free space on disks." You can see my steps until reaching this problem in these 3
pics: step1: step2: step3:
I captured these steps by using Fedora 12 Live printscreen tool. I tried to install Fedora12 from its non-bootable DVD too, but no difference! So there's only 2 situations:
1. I did something wrong -> install Fedora and use its partitioning tool. 2. There's a bug in Fedora -> confirm that this is a bug and say me an alternative way to install fedora.
I'm having trouble installing Fedora 13 (64 bit) onto my new laptop (Thinkpad T510). I've repeatedly tried the following three methods:
1) LiveCD I can boot into the LiveCD okay, and all hardware is detected. Double clicking on "install to hard disk" makes the disc spin a bit, but then it stops and nothing happens. At the same time the "application loading" cursor is displayed for a couple of seconds, then goes back to normal. Otherwise it acts as if I never clicked on the icon.
2) DVD The installation process goes as normal until it has finished formatting the hard disk. It then says an unhandled exception occurred, but gives no other info in the "details" section (it's blank). Pressing CTRL+ALT+F3 actually shows a description of the exception:
Code:
DBNoSpaceError: (28, 'No space left on device -- /tmp/storage.state: unable to flush page: 5') Pressing CTRL+ALT+F4 shows a constant stream of error messages starting with "ERR kernel:" which are scrolling too fast to read. 3) BFO (boot.fedoraproject.org)
[code]...
Pressing CTRL+ALT+F4 shows a constant stream of error messages starting with "ERR kernel:" which are scrolling too fast to read. I've used methods 2 and 3 to install Fedora on two other machines (with the same installation media as I'm using now) within the last week. The laptop is brand new and seems to run Windows okay (as well as Fedora from the LiveCD). I've tried resetting the BIOS to the defaults but that didn't help.
I am going to set up a home server (command line only) with 2 x 1 GB HD and 4G memory. hat partitioning scheme would you recommend? Not more than 5 users Fedora Core only Will host a web page Will run DNS, DHCP, SAMBA, LAMP, NTP, Firewall, etc.. Just normal stuff.The server will host a large amount of video/audio/picture files
