I have downloaded the following kernel:
kernel-2.6.18-164.15.1.el5.src.rpm
I have done the following steps:
As root, install the packages rpm-build, redhat-rpm-config and unifdef:
Code:
[root@host]# yum install rpm-build redhat-rpm-config unifdef
As an ordinary user, not root, create a directory tree based on ~/rpmbuild:
Code:
[user@host]$ cd
[user@host]$ mkdir -p rpmbuild/{BUILD,RPMS,SOURCES,SPECS,SRPMS}
[user@host]$ echo '%_topdir %(echo $HOME)/rpmbuild' > .rpmmacros
However, when I try and install the rpm package:
Code:
[user@host]$ rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.18-164.15.1.el5.src.rpm | 2>&1 | grep -v mockb
I get the following error:

A bit of an oddity that I've recently run into with my storage folder in my system; it's a newly installed drive that I've set to mount at /storage. When I first tried to use it, programs that I used that attempted to write to it tossed Access Denied errors at me in their own way. Checking the permissions (at the Terminal, ls -l / | grep storage) showed that /storage was set to 'rwxrwxr--'--Owner and Group were given full read/write/execute, but Others could only read. However, my logon to my system is a member of group root. Why, then, with the above bits set, would I not be able to write to it? Changing Others permissions to rwx (and presumably rw would have worked out for me since I don't leave anything executable there) allowed me to write to it, but I don't understand why that would have been necessary. So far as I'm aware, the prior drive that was in my system--mounted at the same location--did not need this treatment.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI no longer have access to my root desktop. On a session I attempted to change the root username but i apparently assigned it a wrong directory that does not exist. When I rebooted with my new root username, i was instead recognised as a simple user (no root privileges). I tried the console to change to "old" root but root password is not accepted and there is no way to access to sudoer files. it seems that inserting a new username requires root privileges and i am back to square one. Simply logging with old root username and password after restart gives me a blank screen with nothing on it and cannot even reboot.

I have a question about LVM. My /dev/sda disk is partitioned into Windows NTFS on sda1, Linux /boot partition on sda2, and the Fedora 10 root (/) LVM partition is on sda3. I have moved my Windows XP to VMware on the Linux system and would like to add the sda1 partition to root LVM group.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI have a group (GROUP) with a number of users. I recently added a new user (NEW). NEW is able to read but not write group files, whereas all the other users in the group can read and write to the group files. The permissions for the group files indicate that all members of group should have write permission -rwxrwxr-x
/etc/group indicates that NEW is a member of GROUP
...
GROUP:x:501:GROUP,OLD,OLD2,OLD3,OLD4,....,NEW

Don't know if it matters, but both OLD and NEW write to the GROUP files over an internet connection. why NEW can't write to GROUP files? Is there a maximum number of members in a group that I might have exceeded?
I've downloaded Ubuntu 8.10 and I have installed it within ms windows. My first problem was when I went to boot Ubuntu and the graphics weren't right so I rebooted it with a different graphic configuration and it installed successfully. When I went to boot Ubuntu a second time to actually use it I got the following error:
ALERT! /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk does not exist. Dropping to a shell!
BusyBox v1.10.2 (Ubuntu 1:1.10.2-1ubuntu6) built-in shell (ash)
Just tried installing Ubuntu 10.10 from a USB device on my Windows 7 machine but something goes wrong. Far into the installation the computer restarts, asks me which operating system I want to start (it had already done this once before) and I choose Ubuntu. Then I get three alternatives:
Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.35-22-generic
Ubuntu, Linux 2.6.35-22-generic (recovery mode)
Windows 7 (loader) (on /dev/sdb1)
I pick the top choice, and get the following message:
ALERT! /host/ubuntu/disks/root.disk does not exist. Dropping to a shell.
If I start recovery-mode i get the same message. There's some text above the message that reads "new low speed USB device using ohci_hcd and address"... Could there be a problem with the usb-drive? If I remove the USB drive I get the message: Gave up waiting for root device.
I need to create a group that has the same permissions as the users group. Can I have the new group be a member of the "users" group to inherit its permissions?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI recently installed Ubuntu 9.10 and have been trying to set up a USB printer. I hit a problem which I eventually diagnosed as being the ownership of /dev/usb/lp0.
First, the symptom:
~$ cat Test > /dev/usb/lp0
bash: /dev/usb/lp0: Permission denied
The initial diagnosis:
~$ ls -l /dev/usb/lp0
crw-rw---- 1 root lp 180, 0 2010-03-23 21:39 /dev/usb/lp0
Notice the lp group? When I checked group properties, this group did not have any members - not even root! The default for CUPS (from the CUPS doc) is lpadmin, in any case, so not sure what lp is all about. In fact, the 'lp' group has ID=0, the same as the 'root' group.
I fixed it by doing this:
~$ sudo chown root:lpadmin /dev/usb/lp0
Then I noticed that /dev/lp0 and /dev/parport0 also had group=lp, so I also did this:
~$ sudo chown root:lpadmin /dev/lp*
~$ sudo chown root:lpadmin /dev/parport*
I've installed BOINC for first time (from suse repos). I'm worried about running BOINC as root. How can this be avoided? I'd first like to exhaust all options with the official opensuse repo version of BOINC. If I am unsuccessful, then I'll try the version from Berkeley website.

I am trying to extend my / size as its full. Well the volume group is VolGroup00 & logical volume is LogVol00 but when. I run the command vgextend VolGroup00 /dev/sda8. It says volume group not found. Can it be because I have WindowsXP in my /dev/sda1, which falls under same Volgroup??
View 1 Replies View RelatedAccording to a couple of different places, it's not possible for me to put a line in /etc/fstab to mount one of my partitions with owner and group not root; instead, I have to mount it in /etc/fstab, then chown & chgrp to my user. That seems ridiculously tedious and silly... is it true? I'm sure a short script could be written to get around it, but it seems obtuse for Linux not to allow that to be set in /etc/fstab.
View 9 Replies View RelatedAfter freshly installing Lucid Lynx and tinkering for some time to get everything just how I like it, I managed to somehow remove myself and all other users from all groups. Now, obviously, I've restarted and I don't have root privileges as I am no longer a member of admin group. So I am somewhat stuck. I've looked at this page: [URL]. But annoyingly, there is no grub menu appearing on boot up (unlike previous Ubuntu versions). So I'm appealing for your help to either:
a) Show me how I can bring up the grub menu so I can access ubuntu in safe mode
b) Show me another way of accessing the system with root privileges. (Would using chroot from the Live CD work? I just thought of that now so I'll try it).

I've been tasked with fixing a Red Hat system that dies with a kernel panic during the boot stage:
