Fedora Installation :: Upgrade The Kernel To FC14 And That Has Toasted?

May 9, 2011

I had a FC13 box which I ran a yum update which obviously does updates to the packages installed. My issue is that its tried to upgrade the kernel to FC14 and that has toasted by install. now when the box boots up I get this on the screen.

[ 1.741672] Kernel Panic - not syncin: VFS: unable to mount foot fs on unknown -block(0,0)
[ 1.741715] Pid: 1, comm: swapper Not tainted 2.6.35.12-90.fc.x86_64 #1
[ 1.741754] Call Trace:
[ 1.741789] [<ffffffff81468d6f> panic+0x8b/0x10d

there are a few more lines like te last one. I've tried a rescue disk but no good. is my box toasted for good? I've used a live cd and can still the data on the box, is there any way to resue this situation? or is it run live cd backup the data and do fresh install?

Fedora Installation :: Yum Update For FC15 After Upgrade From FC14

May 27, 2011

After doing an upgrade from FC14 to FC15, I then updated the packages by doing:
yum update yum
yum clean all
yum --releasever=15 --disableplugin=presto distro-sync
I then get the following voluminous list of issues (148 pre-existing rpmdb problems). I've done an rpm --rebuilddb but no help.

Running rpm_check_debug
ERROR with rpm_check_debug vs depsolve:
libclutter-gtk-0.10.so.0()(64bit) is needed by gthumb-2.12.3-2.fc15.x86_64
Please report this error in [URL]

Found 148 pre-existing rpmdb problem(s), 'yum check' output follows:
ImageMagick-c++-6.6.4.1-15.fc14.x86_64 has missing requires of ImageMagick = ('0', '6.6.4.1', '15.fc14')
akonadi-1.5.3-1.fc14.x86_64 has missing requires of libboost_program_options-mt.so.1.44.0()(64bit)
alchemist-1.0.37-8.fc12.x86_64 has missing requires of python(abi) = ('0', '2.6', None) .....
Your transaction was saved, rerun it with: yum load-transaction /tmp/yum_save_tx-2011-05-27-10-30qO4br9.yumtx

Well, it appears that downloading and installing libclutter-gtk-0.10.so.0 seemed to fix all the subsequent yum error messages, and I was able to install all the packages.

Fedora Installation :: Fc14 Hangs After Kernel Update / Solution For This?

Aug 8, 2011

I am unable to boot with kernel 2.6.35.13-92.fc14.x86_64 which was installed while applying software updates. It hangs with the last message issued "Registering binary handler for Windows Applications". Searching led to it being related to a problem with the nvidia drivers. I followed the directions in several posts - delete /etc/X11/xorg.conf, reboot, run nvidia-xconfig, reboot and all is fine, but not in my case. The first reboot works but the screen is wrong. There is a 1 inch wide black border around the presentation window. If I then do the nvidia-xconfig and reboot, i am back to where I was before - boot hangs after issuing "Registering...". If I boot to the last good kernel, everything works fine. This happened to me once before and I was able to fix it by rebuilding the nvidia kernel (I think that was what I had to do), but I can't find out how to do that. I have akmod and kmod installed which are supposed to take care of this problem. I booted to kernel 13-92 recovery mode, deleted the xorg.conf file and ran nvidia-xconfig from there. Still fails. I don't know what to list here, but I will do my best to supply whatever is necessary.

Fedora Installation :: FC14 Upgrade Breaks X, Nouveau/nvidia?

Jun 17, 2011

My system with kernel-2.6.35.10-74.fc14.x86_64, NVIDIA 3800 + Samsung 2233 and 3Dvision kit works fine, but upon upgrading to kernel-2.6.35.13-92.fc14.x86_64 the system won't go past the blue->white bar along the screen. The modprobe.d directory has the file blacklisting nouveau and there is the grub entry rdblacklist=nouveau, but do I need to re-run the nvidia installer. If so I think I need to reset the init level to stop X11 trying to load. and will I need to keep doing this everytime I upgrade the kernel if I have nvidia drivers installed?

Leigh123linux desired code output is below

***

Jun 27, 2011

Trying to do the upgrade through "Software Updates", however because there are no current updates, I cannot click on the "Upgrade" button to begin the upgrade process to FC14.

Is there any other way to do this besides downloading the DVD and installing?

Fedora :: Yum Is Only Offering Kernel-headers For 2.6.35.11-83.fc14

Feb 13, 2011

where you only get offered the kernel-headers for 2.6.35.11-83 by yum but not the kernel or the kernel-devel? I tried yum clean all and both pointing to the baseurl and mirrorlist and it does the same thing for both. Oddly my other laptop with F14 in the wireless cafe showed all three packages were available.

Fedora :: NVidia Driver For New Kernel 2.6.35.12-88.fc14.x86_64?

Apr 12, 2011

I just responded to a (packagekit?) prompt to update packages, which included new kernel 2.6.35.12-88.fc14.x86_64. I use nVidia on my notebook and usually the new driver is installed automatically. This time, the computer would not boot to the stage that the nVidia logo appears, indicating the driver is not present. I edited grub.conf to take me back a version and I am now running under the previous kernel 2.6.35.11-83.fc14.x86_64. I tried a yum search for kmod-nvidia-2.6.35.12-88.fc14.x86_64 and nothing was found. I have enabled these repos:

Fedora :: Kernel 2.6.35.12-90.fc14 - Update Not Fully Installing PAE?

May 1, 2011

It appears that the update process on or about 2011.04.28 downloaded and installed a non PAE kernel (kernel-2.6.35.12-90.fc14) on my box. Until this update, it has been installing PAE designated kernels. When this update occurred, it downloaded the PAE headers and debug, devel and debug-devel PAE components. Has anyone else noticed this in their update?

Fedora :: FC14 To FC15 Upgrade - USB 3.0 Not Working

May 29, 2011

I have used preupgrade to moved from fc14 to fc15. With fc14 I had my two usb 3.0 ports working. However, with fc15 my usb 3.0 ports are disabled. I have read the instruction at the common fc15 bugs doc and removed the kernel parameter xhci.enable=1 and also erased the file /etc/pm/config.d/xhci. Still the usb 3.0 ports are not working. I am using kernel 2.6.38.6-26.rc1.fc15.x86_64. I cannot use the 2.6.38.6-27.fc15.x86_64 since there no nvidia drivers for it.

Fedora :: Kernel 2.6.35.10-72.fc14 Makes The F14 Hang Constantly Without Any Hint?

Dec 26, 2010

I tried this kernel released on Dec 21th. It makes my F14 constantly suddenly freeze in GUI with no keyboard/mouse response anymore before restart. Only thing to do in this situation is press power-off button and after restart I found no hint in logs.My laptop is thinkpad t400 and I think it's a very common installation.Now I revert to older kernel 2.6.35.9-64.fc14.i686 and it's works quite well.

Fedora Networking :: Sshd Can't Bind To Non Standard Port After FC14 Upgrade

Feb 5, 2011

I just upgraded from FC 13 to FC 14. I run an ssh server on a port in the 3000s (call it 3xxx, to protect the innocent). When I try to start sshd with the "Port 3xxx" option in sshd_conf, I get the following error in /var/log/secure

sshd[5104]: error: Bind to port 3xxx on 0.0.0.0 failed: Permission denied.
sshd[5104]: error: Bind to port 3xxx on : : failed: Permission denied.

I did not use to have this problem in FC 13. how I can give sshd the necessary permissions now?

Fedora Installation :: F13 Kernel Upgrade, Os Will Not Start?

Mar 8, 2011

I just updated my kernel on Fedora 13. The bug update thing popped up, I clicked install, it asked me to restart, I did this, now the loading bar on boot gets to the end then stops and goes no further. A google search showed people using older versions of Fedora have had some issues similar because of their nVidia graphics card, which I also have, however I can't find a solution. There is no terminal to play with, no error message, so I have very little to go on. I have a java project for uni on there I need to rescue so any help would be very welcome.

Extra update, while starting up I pressed esacpe and was giving the option of an interactive start up which pretty much confirmed it was a problem with the nVidia card, told me that the driver wasn't installed with warning writern (is this a word?) next to it orange writing which didn't seem to positive. It seems that spamming escape earlier in the boot lets me play with grub. Using the old kernel to boot doesn't seem to help. So ready for those solutions now.....

Fedora Installation :: Yum Upgrade Added New Kernel To Menu

Mar 6, 2009

Yum 'pre-upgrade' added new kernel to menu.lst, but I don't boot from that GRUB; I boot from GRUB on another partition. The new kernel is ready to install, but the GRUB that I boot with ain't linking' to the pre-loaded kernel.

Fedora Installation :: Kernel Upgrade-need To Copy To Another Bootloader?

Dec 25, 2010

I've just gotten another kernel upgrade, and need to copy it to a bootloader on another Linux sytem, so Fedora will boot, using legacy grub. The problem is that when I check /boot/grub/grub.conf, I get title Fedora (2.6.34.7-66.fc13.i686) root (hd0,2)

[Code]...

It's all Greek to me, but evidently it means something to grub, as that's what is in the Fedora kernel(s) that work. I can't find where this "bunch of stuff" is for the new kernel, so I can paste it into the grub file on the other system. The other system is Linux Mint9, and I've made Mint work using (legacy) grub, and deleted grub2 so that it's no longer Mint's bootloader.

So, I upgraded from Fedora 13 to Fedora 14.

Now I have Fedora release 14 (Laughlin) and Kernel 2.6.18
I did this to upgrade: url

Also, I did this too.

Fedora Installation :: FC14 Installation Crashed To Grub Prompt

Dec 20, 2010

I decided to upgrade my FC installation to the latest version - FC itself offered the upgrade when I turned the machine on, so it appeared that it was nicely packaged to make the upgrade easy.After a long download of packages, the machine rebooted and then started taking me through configuration options (timezone, disks to use for the installation etc) but then it crashed trying to write to disk and now leaves me at a grub prompt whenever I boot.Is there any way to "get at" the installation files and get back into trying to install or do I now need to download an ISO and burn a DVD and start all over again?

Fedora Installation :: Can't Install FC14 / Sort It?

May 13, 2011

I'm trying to install FC14 on my box... without any success so far

The problem: when it comes to write the partitioning scheme to the disk, the system freezes. This occurs with the following CD images:
- Fedora 14 LXDE live image. Installation using "Install to Disk" script.
- Fedora 14, regular i386 image
- Fedora 15 (beta) LXDE live image

I did further tests and found out that I could simply reproduce the problem by trying to write a partition on /dev/sdb using fdisk:
- after executing the fdisk 'w' command, the system hangs for about 10-15 seconds
- no kernel message can been seen during this time using dmesg
- after those 10-15s, the system freezes. I have no other option but power off the machine.

There is no Hardware problem with the disk itself. I can read/write partition on that disk without problem using another distro.

Does someone have a few ideas what to do?

Fedora Installation :: Trying To Get Dial-up Working On FC14

May 14, 2011

I'm trying to get dial up working using wvdial, kppp or system-config-network. Whatever I try, it shows "no modem found." I'm using a US Robotics serial modem that's worked with other linux set-ups, so I know it's not the modem. What's the command to find a serial modem in the terminal? lspci doesn't show it.

And any info on getting any of these to work..especially system-config-network! Had it working with linux Mint's LXDE on an older Thinkpad, but something happened after an up date (kept saying that an IBM system was detected and refusing to load a module when it booted.) After update, didn't show that warning, perhaps loading the module.

Old Thinkpad hasn't loaded an operating system since! Won't even load gparted so I can get something else on it.....so I'm sticking with Fedora until I can figure it out. Got another old Thinkpad, don't want to repeat the same mistake. Guessing that it's a debian problem, as Mint's never broken anything before.

Fedora Installation :: 13 Installation After Fc14 Is Installed Partitioning

Dec 27, 2010

I am trying to install 2 or 3 versions of linux on my hardisk of 500GB capacity. The configuration of my machine is Intel Dual Core, 4 GB Ram, 3.0 Processor Windows XP is not installed on this. I tried to use a tool called GParted but was unable to use as it was not able to bring up the XServer So I booted the machine with fedora14 installation CD and chose "Custom Layout" After reading about the partitions needed by Fedora I created 3 partitions in /dev/sda /dev/sda1 the boot of 500MB formated as ext4 /dev/sda2 the swap of 6096MB formatted as swap /dev/sda3 / size 150GB formatted as ext4

The installation went well and fc14 runs well on this. However when I went to install the other linux version ....the installer was not able to recognize the unallocated space of nearly 350 GB on the hard disk.....So I am not able to create new partitions and then install the new linux on the newer partition. As a result I am unable to make use of the remaining space on the HDisk. I think I should have created /dev/sda4 /dev/sda5 etc when I installed fc14 itself....

Fedora Installation :: Mysql Fc14 Can't Create New User?

3) mysqladmin -u root password myownsecrectpass ##create a root password
3b) mysql -uroot -p; #log in as root, this works fine

5) CREATE USER 'anewuser'@'%' IDENTIFIED BY 'password123'; ##create anewuser with a passwd
6) GRANT ALL ON webdb.* TO anewuser@'%';
7) FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

Then I log out of mysql as root and try to log in like this
mysql -uanewuser -p

I enter the password and get this error:
