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.

Ubuntu :: Does Not Boot Up Stuck At Logo With Blinking Process Bar

Jun 21, 2011

I have currently installed the ubuntu 11.04 natty narwhal edition through the wubi installer alongside windows 7. I wanted to just check out what the kde environment had to offer differently from the default desktop environment which is gnome unity environment.

I installed the kde environment using some sudo command given by google. After using kde environment for a few hours, I just began to feel, I liked the default gnome environment better (in classic mode) as compared to kde as I was more used to the former.

So I uninstalled kde with another sudo command which I got by googling. At the final step of the uninstallation, I admit I am not sure whether what I did was right or wrong. There was sth related to 'daemon' that popped up eventually and I chose yes for that and kde was uninstalled successfully or atleast that's what I thought.

But to my horror, when i tried rebooting my laptop to ubuntu gnome, the blue coloured kubuntu logo was popping once again and I had to go back to the synaptic package manager and delete sth called the 'plymouth' package to remove the kubuntu logo.

Now after doing all these, when I tried booting ubuntu, I was not able to get to the gnome login screen. The screen was just stuck with the ubuntu logo and the process bar blinking and gnome never started.

When I pressed the Esc key to check out what was happening from behind, I could see that some processes were being checked and there was a [ok] after everything and there was a [FAIL] next to "starting CPU interrupts balancing daemon". And the terminal screen ended with "stopping system V run level compatibility". I am not sure if this might be the root cause of blocking the boot-up. But I couldn't get a screenshot of those intermittent terminal screens as I was not in a position to type in any commands such as fbgrab which can be used to grab a screenshot of the terminal screen.

Eventually after intense googling, I figured how to manually configure gnome to start up. I pressed the Cnt + Alt +F1 as soon as the white ubuntu logo popped up and after logging in into my ubuntu account through the terminal interface, I typed in the following things:

And then voila I got the gnome login screen. I temporarily heaved a sigh of relief. (by the way I saw something flash quickly on the terminal moments before it went to the gnome login screen like "you need not init this way or sth"..I just couldn't catch sight of it properly as it flashed only for a few moments)

But I am not satisfied. Obviously there might be a way to set this problem right isn't it? Kindly someone pls throw some light on this issue. I want gdm to be automatically activated during boot. Its a big pain to manually configure it everytime I boot. Is it possible to do a windows restore to set the ubuntu right? But I saw in some forums mention that something called the boot.ini will botch up if we perform a system restore in win 7.

Method that does not involve uninstalling ubuntu and reinstalling it. This is because I have done a lot of tweaks, optimisations and installed lot of apps in it. I do not have a system image backup as well. So it will be a nightmare to do all these things over and over again. The mistake or rather the drawback from my side is I just have my laptop alone and do not have another standalone desktop to experiment with linux.

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.

Slackware :: Kernel Hang During Boot Process - Slack 13.1 Stable W/ Kernel 2.6.33.4-smp

Jun 20, 2010

I installed a fresh copy of Slackware 13.1 (stable) on one of my media servers and I am experiencing something strange.... When I power up the machine, I see the kernel booting, no errors, until it gets to the point where it says:

And then randomly freeze there.... Well the machine is not totally frozen because the cursor still blinks. But it will never continue... Like I said, this happens on a random basis... After a reset, it might go through or simply stall at the same spot.

I remember after installing Slack 13.1, I rebooted the machine but forgot to remove the DVD from the player, so the install routine started up, and froze at the same point when it was loading the kernel for the setup programs...

My mobo is a MSI k9N platinum.

I never had this problem before.... (well I never used 13.1 before). Since I got this machine, I used slack 12.2 and slack 13-current with success.

This problem makes the machine extremely unreliable because I intent to use it as a backup and media server, so chances I will WOL the machine and use it remotely... if that happens.

Fedora :: Recent Kernel Update Won't Boot ?

Aug 10, 2009

The girlfriend did an update a few nights ago. Besides removing her NVidia drivers, it also installed kernel version 2.6.27.29-170.2.78.fc10.i686.

That kernel was causing problems. Now it won't boot at all. How do we remove that kernel altogether?

If we remove it, would simply doing another update from the previous (still working) kernel just try to reinstall that bad kernel?

Fedora :: Kernel Boot Error After Yum Update F13 / Fix It?

I ran the update through yum (replicated results twice) and whenever I boot to the new kernel it either freezes on the F logo or screen goes black right after f logo.

General :: Fedora 14 - Stuck At Post Installation Process

Feb 7, 2011

I am pretty new to Linux OS's, but I have gone through the process of installing linux onto several of my system already. The problem I am having is when I attempt to install Fedora 14 onto my Unbuntu 10.10 (erasing Unbuntu to be specific) I am stuck at the Post-Installation process.
I am using a CD-RW to install Fedora onto my Ubuntu, and I installed Ubuntu onto the computer originally with another CD-R.

I assume this usually takes a few minutes, as the pop-up says that it may take several, but it has been several hours with no progress. I was pretty far into the installation when the pop up appeared, and it said:
"Post-Installation: Performing post-installation filesystem changes. This may take several minutes.".
As I said, it has been several hours.

OpenSUSE Install :: After Kernel Update No Ext4 Support At Boot Time

Apr 20, 2010

telling me if this behavior of my openSuSE 11.2 installation is normal? I use a 64-Bit openSuSE 11.2 with kernel 2.6.31.x with root partition ext4. After adding and updating from repository kernel:/HEAD/etc to 2.6.34-rc4 I can not boot anymore due to a lack of module ext4. I thought today ext4 is stable and fix built-in in the actual kernel releases, isn't it? The error message at boot time: FATAL: Module ext4 not found. Which is right because in /lib/modules/<kernelversion>/kernel/ there is NO 'fs' subfolder. Isn't the kernel:/HEAD/ repository the official update path to get a newer major kernel? (besides openSuSE's Updates for security reasons) Do you know how I can fix it without self-compiling?

Fedora Installation :: F11 Kernel 217 Won't Boot After Update / Resolve This?

Aug 23, 2009

I have recently updated my Fedora 11 installation which replaced my older 167 kernel with the newer 217 kernel. However, the 217 kernel will not boot completely. It will show the splash loading screen, and then will switch to a rapidly blinking cursor. This cursor blinks for about 5 seconds and then disappears. I can access terminals using ALT+F2, etc. I can log in to these terminals, but init commands do not complete (something about a binary handler). I'm not sure if something is conflicting with an update to X or what is wrong. The most recent kernel that I managed to get to work was Kernel 167, however I cannot find this kernel for download.

Sys info:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+
3GB RAM
nVidia GeForce 8600GT with proprietary drivers
320GB Hard Disk with windows and linux partitions
Fedora 11 32-bit i586

Fedora :: Kernel 2.6.31.6-145.f12.x86_64 Update Wont Boot?

Dec 1, 2009

I tried to update my f12 today. In the list it showed an update for kernel-2.6.31.6-145.fc12.x86_64 It all seemed to go OK but when I restated my computer it spit up an error and wouldn't boot"Could not load /lib/modules/2.6.31.6-145.f12.x86_64/modules.dep: No such file or directory"Luckily the old kernel still works.

I do have the disk encryption set, could this be related to that? Updated my laptop today with the xx.6-145.f12.PAE kernel and now it's borked to. Same problems.12/07/2009OK today's kernel update seemedto fix the problems and now all is well, execpt for my inkscape not working problem. But I put ubuntu 9.10 in a VBox and it works. So for now that's my work around.

Fedora X86/64bit :: Unable To Boot After Kernel Update

Feb 11, 2011

I am unable to boot my Fedora 14 after last nights kernel update. When I start the boot up and hit F2 the system fails after outputting the line : Starting vservers of type 'default'. At some point the console displays an error message :

serial8250 : Too much work for irq17

How do I restore my previous version? I know some people have suggested in the past - just modify the grub.conf but how? When I boot off the cd I only get access to the liveuser disk. I need to have access to my own /boot/grub/grub.conf file.

When I edit Xorg.conf and replace 'nvidia' with 'nv' the new kernel boots but only to fallback mode, trying to then re-install the nvidia drivers shows them to be already installed and I can get no further.

Red Hat / Fedora :: Boot Failure After Latest Kernel Update (12)?

Mar 14, 2010

Dual Boot: Fedora 12 and XP Dell 505I've had trouble with the latest kernel update.I updated a bunch of packages recently (including Xorg and kernel), and noticed a severe flickering after the update on my center monitor (Samsung T260 - the laptop display did not exhibit the flickering behavior). I backed out all the changes and started updating package by package. After I updated the kernel (again) I rebooted and here's where the fun part is -

I no longer get anything, except the cursor. No grub menu, no grub prompt. I rebooted and ran the rescue disk and followed the procedurery and point grub at the right boot partition - see here. However (obviously or I wouldn't be posting) that failed to work. I still get a blinking cursor and dead system on boot up.

Fedora :: Kernel Panic During FC 11 Update / Cannot Get Even To Shell From Boot Screen

Nov 26, 2009

It appears that I have really messed up my machine. I was trying to get matlab working on FC 11 and I ran into libc.so.6 issues, so I put an older file libc.2.3.1.so in /lib/tls/ directory and created a symbolic link libc.so.6 to see if the application would work. Unfortunately at the same time the system did some updates and the system hung, so I ended up rebooting, but now it gets stuck at boot screen (after grub) with a kernel panic - not syncing: attempted to kill init.I just need a way to get to the directror /lib/tls and delete the link and the older .so file I threw in there. How do I get this accomplished. I cannot get even to a shell from the boot screen.

Fedora :: Cannot Boot Into Usual Display Settings After Kernel Update

Since doing the update which included kernel "2.6.32.16-141 fc12-i686 PAE" I can no longer boot into my usual 1280x960 desktop. I can set it using NVidia settings but even though this offers to modify xorg.conf it fails to do so. I have tried running as root and it doesn't then give an error message but when I look at xorg. conf there is no section.showing any specific screen size. It worked ok before the update. In case it is relevant the video card is a Quadro FX1400 with KDE. Also the whole program seems rather unstable since the update.

Fedora Installation :: Kernel Update Fails Due To 10MB Boot Partition

Feb 23, 2010

Finally updates are broken - I've been able to use my upgraded F12 system for some time, faithfully keeping up with f10, then f11. Just yesterday it finally broke:

Test Transaction Errors: installing package kernel-2.6.31.12-174.2.22.fc12.i686 needs 10MB on the /boot filesystem

It would appear that the most recent kernel update has broken the 10MB barrier initially set by the version I first installed (for the boot partition). Needless to say, I have quite an investment in this machine, and of course no time to back it all up and do a fresh F12 install. I am hoping someone out there can give me a bulletproof way to steal some space and expand the boot partition...
