CentOS 5 :: Rebuild Just One Part Of The Kernel?

Nov 13, 2009

I'm working on the development of a custom kernel (actually just a "small" change in the networking part), from the standard 2.6.23.17 source code (downloaded from kernel.org), on CentoOS 5.3. I'm using the following procedure to build and install the kernel:

1)cd <ROOT_DIRECTORY_OF_KERNEL_SOURCE>
2)Modifiy the 4th line of the Make file as follows:EXTRAVERSION = .17CUSTOM

Software :: X Will Not Fully Start After Kernel Rebuild?

Sep 16, 2010

I rebuilt my kernel with dynamic ticks, high resolution timer support, and hugepagetlb and hugepagetlbfs support. Now X does not load. If I start it as root, xclock shows up and then the screen goes black and I can't do anything. Normally xclock and three xterms show up. If I start it under my normal account, I get a black screen with nothing but a cursor, which moves and has the "busy" pointer. It is not configuration because I booted an old kernel and am using X under that right now.I also set CONFIG_PM_RUNTIME to no. My monitor uses DPMS so maybe that may have done it.

Slackware :: X Freezes (xfce) Instantly After Kernel Rebuild?

Dec 16, 2010

New build of Slackware 13.1 x86_64 in Dell E4310 laptop. The stock install works fine barring a few bits of hardware but after recompiling the kernel X loads and immediately freezes, whence I need to soft power down (I cannot switch back to a console). On capturing stderr from the command line, when executing startx I get various warnings including:(polkit-gnome-authentication-agent-1:2368): GLib-CRITICAL **: g_once_init_leave: assertion `initialization_value != 0' failedCan't really tell if the above is relevant... Sorry I can't dump the lot because the machine isn't on the net yet.

There is nothing errorwise in the Xorg log after a reboot. The very last line relates to a video mode with modeline info etc. I have compiled either into the kernel, or as modules everything I think I need though unfortunately I seem to have to load them all manually, so I hav no idea of I've missed something important. This includes all the Intel drivers i915, drm, intel_agp etc.Googling suggests bugs with polkit and I don't know why gnome has anything to do with my system in any case.Other thing that I find annoying is that xorg.conf no longer exists and I am relying on the HAL daemon, about which I know nothing. It took me ages to find how to change the X keyboard map - very frustrating. How do I confirm which video driver etc.?

CentOS 5 :: Nvidia Driver Rebuild Necessary After (each) Kernel Upgrade?

Oct 6, 2010

I have an Nvidia graphics card,... actually I manage several workstations that run centos and have an nvidia video card. I also have a personal computer with ubuntu and an nvidia network card.

I would like to do a regular automatic update of those Centos workstations. (With a pilot group to test and then a full roll-out). Until oktober 2009 no major difference in automatic updating ubuntu and centos (apart from the differences between apt and yum):

After a kernel upgrade, the systems can not boot into it's Xorg gui, because the nvidia driver must be rebuild (=not recompiled, because this is partially object code, the driver is not opensource).

But from ubuntu 9.10 onwards, the kernel update process checks for the presence of propietary drivers like those of nvidia and does a rebuild on the reboot, so that the system can succesfully boot into the xorg GUI (and gdm or kdm) My question is: Are ther any plans for Centos to do the same, this would relief me from some upgrade hassle for the Centos workstations that I manage. Or does anyone know about a (good) automagic workaround?

Slackware :: After Kernel Rebuild And Using Dracut Input Devices In KDM Don't Work?

Nov 11, 2010

I just implemented dracut on my Slack. It works well, but for this also I had to rebuild the kernel. Everything works as it should beside KDM. When KDM start mouse/keyboard don't work. I check the logs and I don't actually see any errors.Note: Im using Slack in VirtualBox with fbdev or vesa driver and it doesn't work with neither of the drivers. I suppose its something missing in the kernel, but don't know what.Before rebuilding the kernel and implementing dracut, everything work with fbdev and/or vesa

General :: Rebuild System From Dump Tape?

Feb 8, 2010

I have a Red Hat Enterprise (AS) 4.8 system and I need to know how to totally rebuild the system from dump tape. I have been making some full level 0 dumps of the system to the attached DAT72 tape drive... In the case the boot disk goes south, I need to reload from tape, onto a new disk drive. I know how to do this in Solaris. I assume you boot from CD to like a mini-root, then configure and mount the drive on temp mount points, restore the sys data, then load the "boot blocks" (like installboot on solaris).

General :: Looking For Ways To Manually Rebuild A Partition Table?

Dec 14, 2010

I need to find a program or a way to edit the partition table and set the values and addresses for the partition boundaries manually. A while ago I had a very messy data loss that left me with a disk full of data but without a partition table (and without file indexes for some of the partitions on the disk). So, for recovery reasons I need to try lots of combinations of starting and ending addresses for each partition. Additionally it would be extra nice if I could do this with a live cd since I don't have the faulty drive attached to a working computer at the moment.

General :: No Automatic Rebuild Of RAID 5 After Replacing Bad Disk

Dec 12, 2009

I have a 5 disk raid 5 array that is composed of SATA A:0,1; SATA B: 0,1, and SATA C:0, and one of the disks (SATA A:0) recently went bad on me. I have an ICP raid controller that is about 5 years old. I replaced SATA A:0. After rebooting, I went into the controller and verified that it saw the disk in the hard-disk info section...there I noticed that in the "status" section, that the SATA C:0, SATA B:1 disks were listed as being "in array", the SATA A disks were blank, and the SATA B:0 disk was listed as "fragment". When I go into the "repair array" section, the controller tells me that there are no arrays that are in failure, error, or need to be rebuilt.

This puzzles me, as I thought the controller would know that the array needs to be rebuilt after replacing the disk and I don't see a way to initiate a rebuild. If I just let the server boot after replacing the disk, then I get back that there are the correct number of disks in the raid 5 and that it is ready, however, the screen then goes blank and I get a blinking cursor and the system seems to hang. There are no activity lights on any of the drives associated with the raid 5, which makes me think that the system is not rebuilding the array at this point.

Ubuntu :: How To Rebuild /boot

Jul 22, 2010

I've lost the disk that contained the /boot directory of a 9.10 installation.All other important partitions/directories are on a raid0 and working ok.So, I started trying to repair the system by booting from Ubuntu 9.10 live cd, creating a new partition on a new disk for /boot, mounting all partitions in its place for a chroot environment, doing the chroot, and then trying several reinstalls of packages which I supposed where enough for rebuilding /boot (linux kernel & grub), then I ran something like grub-setup which installed a new MBR on the new disk.Everything went ok, but when I reboot the new installation it gets me to a text mode login screen and of course I want to recover the previous configuration which ran gdm and auto login into GNOME I had before.After that I tried reinstalling some other packages like gdm but now the boot process "hangs" on the boot splash screen.

Ubuntu :: Banshee Keeps Asking To Rebuild Database

Aug 25, 2010

I am trying to use Banshee to sync my 5th generation iPod nano on a Lenovo laptop. When I plug the iPod in, it is recognized just fine by Banshee, however when I click on the iPod icon it tells me that it is unable to read the iPod because it has been used with a version of iTunes that saves a version of the database that Banshee can't recognize.

All of this is fine. I click on rebuild iPod database since I have no intention of using iTunes in the future with this iPod, and I don't mind losing the playlists or songs on the iPod (I have them all on the computer). The database rebuilds normally from all appearances, and after a short time I am able to read all songs on the iPod and transfer things back and forth.

The frustration comes into play with the fact that next time I load up the iPod on Banshee, it asks for the exact same process. It is unable to read the iPod, needs to rewrite the database, etc..

Is there some way to permanently alter the database that I'm missing, or is this an issue with 5th generation compatibility?

Slackware :: Browser Only Rebuild Of SeaMonkey?

Jun 18, 2011

I'm currently trying to rebuild the Seamonkey package so as to have only the browser, and not all the remaining cruft like Mail, News, Composer and Dishwasher. I remember having done this for a few years - Netscape also allowed to do that - and it went well. Basically, all you had to do was to replace the --enable-application=suite option by something like --enable-application=browser, and then disable the other apps explicitly with some option like --disable-calendar, --disable-mailnews, --disable-composer, if I remember correctly.

I've tried to rebuild the Seamonkey source with a modified SlackBuild, but to no avail. ./configure --help shows me some options in that direction, but I have yet to find out some magic combination to get it to work. --enable-application=APP doesn't seem to know the browser-only option anymore, and defining various --disable-mailnews and --disable-calendar options results in compilation errors.

Debian :: Rebuild Lost Bootloader Flash

Aug 29, 2015

I use a usb flash stick for bootloader and /boot. Debian resides on sdaX and is LUKS encrypted (in fact LVM on LUKs). I am trying to learn how to use the Deb LIVE disk with rescue mode to re-build the bootloader and /boot on a fresh different flash drive. As a learning tool I want to approach this task as described. I have full access to a perfectly running system at this point, but I want to learn this process knowing eventually something will go "bump in the night". I did a custom install so I am aware of how this works generally speaking.

I have password access to the LUKS volume and can easily open it at the LIVE disk prompt to do so. My new flash drive is wiped and EXT2 formatted and should be ready to go. I have RAM based backup software for doing sector backups of the LUKS partition/volume. Doing a full restore at any point will be a piece of cake. I have lots of family around and the thought of a missing bootloader flash drive, while not likely, is not out of question.

Debian :: How To Rebuild FSTAB From Emergency Mode

Jun 19, 2015

I used a clonezilla live cd to clone a working updated install to another SSD of the exact make and model. Something went terribly wrong, and the new system booted to emergency mode. I then went back to my working laptop I cloned from and it did the exact same thing when booted, into emergency mode. After a couple of days trying to figure out how to rebuild the FSTAB on the once working machine, I finally figured out how to mount the root partition and copied all my important stuff off. WHEW!

Before I was able to mount the root partition, I had a heck of a time trying to mount it, getting errors about unable to read superblock, etc. I used testdisk that I installed on a debian live cd (on a flash drive) and it did something, not sure, but after that, and rebooting, I no longer had sda1,sda2, and sda5. I only had 1 and 5. sda2 was the root partition (extended, ext2) and I thought all was lost. But after running fdisk -l, I noticed two other devices... dm-0 and dm-1. I noticed that dm-0 was my root partition and read that it has something to do with LVM. I mounted it, and grabbed all my important stuff.

Now I am stuck at rebuilding my fstab so my boot, root, and swap partitions are properly mounted. Again, I do not have anything to copy and paste yet. I guess I got lazy since a lot of my work on this system is via Putty and SSH from a windows machine. It certainly looks like the partitions are there and ok, just not sure where to go from here.

I read that I need to get the UUID's from the partitions, then rebuild the fstab using those. I figured out pretty quickly that using /dev/sda1, 2, and 5 did not work. And the UUID's are pretty long. Without copy and paste, I am not sure how to use those without manually keying them in. I tried shelling into my laptop via putty while it is in emergency mode but failed.

Fedora :: Rebuild Xorg.conf From RUNLEVEL 1?

Oct 19, 2009

I tried to install the Catalyst 9.9 driver on Fedora 11 64bit. Only when I was finished with the guide, I read the comments that said it wouldn't work on 2.6.30 kernel.I've written over my old xorg.conf, blacklisted radeon and radeonhd, restarted my machine.When i restarted my machine X wouldn't work ofcourse and all I got is some red coulor in the top of the screen, and no access to terminal via ALT+F2->F6. only way to get access is to add "telinit 1" to the startup line in GRUB

I've tried

Code:

X -configure

and

Code:

system-config-display --reconfig

The first dosen't work and the last dosen't seem to be installed....since i'm on wireless the network has problems to connect....I can pull a cable but not right now.....

I have yet to try:

Ubuntu :: Trying To Rebuild Encrypted Home Directory

May 21, 2010

I ran fsck on the wrong partition (which was mounted) and in my haste blew up the file system on that partition. Now here's the kicker, I had 450Gb of data and documents on that partition that was in an encrypted home directory. So the long and the short of it I ran fsck again and I was able to recover all the files, and they are now residing on a Lost+Found folder on my hard drive.I have located the encrypted files, but I don't know what to do with them.
