Fedora :: Kernel Update Causes Boot Errors / Fix It?
Jan 21, 2010I've run today command: "sudo yum update"
and I've noticed that the new kermel have been installed (2.6.31.12-174.2.3.fc12.x86_64).
After that installation .. my camputer has several errors while booting and it doesn't want to start. So while booting I can see Code...
Fedora :: Yum Update Produces /sbin/grubby Error
Jul 14, 2010I got this upon installation of the new kernel:

And then, on the Cleanup phase:

My question is, am I going to have issues on reboot, and if so, is there anything I can do to prevent them?
I'm a bit loose on what, specifically, grubby does other than what yum info tells me:

CentOS 5 :: Upgrading From 5.3 To 5.4 Via Yum Produces Perl Errors
Oct 26, 2009When using YUM UPDATE from the prompt more than 230 items are scheduled for update however when the download process has completed I receive errors regarding Perl dependences such as:

I am unsure how to overcome this. It occurs on two different servers.

Not too sure what to do now - it seems I can't install or remove anything. Also, update manager does not work.
Fedora Installation :: Yum Info Kernel-uname-r Produces "no Matching Packages To List"
Jun 25, 2009Fedora 11 update released today creates a dependency issue in my x86-64 system: Processing Dependency: kernel-uname-r = 2.6.29.5-191.fc11.x86_64 for package: kmod-wl-2.6.29.5-191.fc11.x86_64-5.10.91.9-3.fc11.1.x86_64 # yum info kernel-uname-r produces "no matching packages to list" the yum info pack tells me kmod-wl is: Metapackage which tracks in wl kernel module for newest kernel so it seems important to have it up to date. What should I do?

Fedora :: Errors When Trying To Software Update F12?
Feb 26, 2010This was also posted under Newbie Forum as I was unsure which was the best spot. On a fresh install of Fedora 12: I am trying to do a software update and keep getting these errors. I am new to Fedora but have used Ubuntu for some time. An Internal system error has occurred:
Under more details it states:

Fedora :: Update Fails - Est Transaction Errors

I have boot as a separate partition, this time around I have set it to ext4 for the first time. That partition is only 250 Mb, but that has always been sufficient in the past, perhaps I am holding too many kernels or kernel versions?
Fedora :: Update With 12 64-bit - Dependency Resolution Errors
Mar 15, 2010I am running Fedora 12 64-bit on a MacBookPro5,1 system. After two weeks of not running Fedora on the system, I boot into it and check for updates with Yum Extender. It only finds a small handful of updates despite the fact that my other system running Fedora 12 32-bit has installed several update over the past two weeks. When I try to apply the available updates I get the following errors: Dependency Resolution Errors:

Fedora :: Chance To Be Able To Switch From A 32 Bit Kernel To 64 Bit Kernel During The Update?
Jul 18, 2010From F12 to F13. Is there anything I should remove before updating? I have few programs isntalled from source/binary installers in /usr for example. Would it cause problems?

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: package-cleanup --problems
package-cleanup --dupes
rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

I do not believe that I even have the 'xorg-x11-drv-catalyst' mentioned here installed:
Code:

$ yum list all | grep installed | grep catalyst
[root@red 2316 ~]
This returns nothing so why the error?
Fedora :: Compiz Missing Options And Window Update Errors?
Jan 8, 2010I just installed the latest compiz as per leigh's instructions - nice, easy install!I notice that the snow application is missing. That was my favorite, but where has it gone??
How about floating windows above desktop cube? Dodge? In which upon selecting a window, the non-selected windows move around it to move it to the front.I also notice that many window updates are very poor. For example, in the compiz settings manager when I switch tabs, the window does not actually update unless I move it. I click on a tab and it looks just like the previous tab. If I move the mouse around, it will update the wind in blocks under the mouse, but not the whole window.And, it would appear that the standard compiz is still available from my desktop settings in KDE. Could I have failed to remove the original compiz?

Fedora :: Yum Won't Update Kernel In F12

Fedora :: Yum Update All Except Kernel?
Nov 2, 2010I'm using F13 and I would like to update my computer using yum update.
I did this a few weeks ago and yum update downloaded and installed
Quote:
kernel i686 2.6.34.7-61.fc13
After a reboot I got
Quote:
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)
To get around this I did a ctrl + s and booted to an earlier kernel. Once in I deleted the latest kernel using
Quote:
rpm -q kernel
to list the available kernels and
Quote:
rpm -e kernel-version
to delete the latest kernel. Once deleted my computer starts up perfectly.
How do I run yum update without reinstalling the bad kernel?
Fedora :: Can't Update To A New Kernel
Apr 30, 2011I do not understand this problem. I am using kernel 2.6.35.10-74.fc14.i686.PAE and while that works fine I know new kernels makes things work better. As such, every time a kernel update comes along just like all other updates, I perform a yum update. But for some unknown reason, I am successfully updating everything except the kernel.
I have attempted updates with 2.6.35.11-83.fc14.i686.PAE, 88, and 12-90 and at the very beginning of the boot I always get the same panic error and boot freeze. The message is ALWAYS as foolow. The only part of the message that changes is the kernel numbers.
[I did my best at hand writing the error message.]
I hope this makes sense to someone.
MESSAGE:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/init" , line 157 , in <modules>
if _name_ == ' _main_ ' : main()
[Code]....
Does any of the above make any sense?? I cannot even figure how I am supposed to fix anything since the computer completely freezes at that point! I am, of course, able to hard reboot. The I switch back to the previous kernel and everything is fine but why does everything EXCEPT the kernel update?
Fedora :: Cannot Update To Kernel 2.6.29.6-217.2.3.fc11 (x86-64)

Fedora :: Keep More Than 3 Versions Of Kernel After Update?
Mar 11, 2010When yum updates the kernel it keeps the last 3 versions; the older kernels are deleted. Is there a way to keep more than 3 versions?
I presently have one working version and two which are not compatible with my machine. One more bad version and my system will be toast. (I would like to keep the "bad" versions for testing.)
Fedora :: Why Kernel Update Delay On F11
Mar 19, 2010Last Saturday, I ran an update on my laptop using F12 and received a new kernel. As of this morning, the new kernel hasn't shown up on my desktop, using f 11. (Yes, I check every day.) Currently, my uptime is 34 days, so you can see how long it's been since the last kernel update for F11. Does anybody know why there'd be an update for one version and not for another? In case anybody's wondering:
[joe@khorlia ~]$ uname -r
2.6.30.10-105.2.23.fc11.i586
Fedora :: Nvidea, X11 And Last Kernel Update
Jun 20, 2010I'm using F13 64bit with the proprietary nvidea driver. From yesterday's software update, a new kernel was installed:
old kernel: vmlinuz-2.6.33.5-112.fc13.x86_64
old initramfs: initramfs-2.6.33.5-112.fc13.x86_64.img
new kernel: vmlinuz-2.6.33.5-124.fc13.x86_64
new initramfs: initramfs-2.6.33.5-124.fc13.x86_64.img
I load grub from another distro partition. After the update, I changed the two lines in menu.lst, as per the above mentioned, to match the new kernel.
The problem now is that after booting F13, my monitor displays a warning saying "video mode not supported".
These two files are now at /etc/x11:
xorg.conf.livna-config-backup:
# Xorg configuration created by livna-config-display
Section "Files"
ModulePath "/usr/lib64/xorg/modules"
EndSection
[Code].....
I'm not sure if it's exactly the same issue as mine. In case it is, it looks like that all I have to do is:
1 - boot from the previous kernel, and
2 - code: "yum install akmod-nvidia"

Fedora :: F11 Can't Boot After Kernel Update / Resolve This?
Jul 14, 2009I just updated my kernel to kernel-2.6.29.5-191.fc11.x86_64 on my x64 system, after I reboot my machine, the Fedora loading bar comes up and finishes but then no gui comes up.

Fedora :: Recent Kernel Update Won't Boot ?
Aug 10, 2009The 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 Installation :: MBR Mucked Up After Kernel Update?
Nov 19, 2009Did a fresh install of Fedora 12 on a system w/ FC8. hd0 is an IDE drive, hd1 a SATA drive.I successfully preserved the partitions containing /home and several partitiosn containing video data. (This is a myth box.) I had the installer scrub out the / partition. Installed a relatively minimal set of packages.It's up and running!
I bring up Firefox and the Myth install and configure Wiki page. One of the first things it suggests is create a new environment variable, $KVER, then reboot. I do this. When I check out $KVER it tells me I'm running:
2.6.31.5-127.FC12.i686.PAE
Installed the atrpms repository information. I tried installing the rpmfusion repository, but apparently the FC12 information wasn't up yet. So, I thought I'd go atrpms-only. Per the wiki:
yum install nvidia-graphics
(My motherboard has Geforce 7050 / 630) There were a couple of errors about missing firmware during the install. Oi! I also noticed it downloading a new kernel. "Well!" I thought, "If the new kernel is messed up, I'll boot with the other from the grub menu, and try again."
Reboot. System stops dead after the BIOS hardware display. The message "FROM CD" shows. After that, nothing. Booted to Fedora 12 DVD. Hit Rescue. Confirmed that everything is there file system with. Confirmed that grub.conf was there, and looked OK. I edited it so the timeout wasn't zero and so the menu wasn't hidden.
Rebooted. Several times. Every time, it sticks right after the hardware display.I eventually looked up "master boot record" here and found some directions for resetting grub on the MBR. That did the trick.
