SUSE / Novell :: Bash File Corrupt, And Sh And Init Went Down With It?
May 23, 2010Yesterday afternoon, I was playing around with updating my system with RPMs from the openSUSE RPM Search. I had bash v 4.0.18 (I'm running a decaboot, the primary OS being openSUSE 11.2, where the issue is) and I installed a package that was bash 1.0.36. I restarted my Yakuake terminal to see the new bash. Immediately, I noticed the Yakuake terminal flashing rapidly, and the terminal wouldn't go down when I used the key that brings up and down, so I controlled-alt-escaped it and killed it off. Then I wondered if it was just me, so I hit ALT-F2 and logged in as root. It quickly said some symbol file (Something)_(Something)_REWRITE(maybe) then disappeared, giving my the login prompt. I though, well, OK maybe I have to restart it to get it to work. Init said "there is no more processes left on this runlevel" and I had to Power-Button it and reboot. When it rebooted, or tried to, I was greeted with "KERNEL-PANIC Tried to kill init"
I panicked with the kernel, and I went into my 11.3 Milestone 4 installation, tried to chroot it, but I received the same error as when I tried to log into root and was returned to my 11.3 session.
I later tried to do a mock update with the 11.2 DVD, and tried with the YaST package manager to downgrade BASH, but the RPM installation failed, even on good DVDs. I tried the rescue, but it said BASH wasn't a "critical file" while things I don't even use were checked (like openssh)
From 11.3, I tried linking sh from bash to ksh (Korne Shell). For all I know, it is just like bash. It didn't work. Same kernel error.
I relinked sh and bash together, and I am using SUSE 11.1 in the meantime, but does anybody know how to fix this without reinstalling my SUSE 11.2 completely.

Jul 13, 2010We are running SLES 10.3, I am running Novell's support advisor and it is reporting some old hardware that is failing on bootup, one being a QLogic card and another being flex net network adapter. I was looking around for where the file or directory is that holds the list of modules to be loaded when compiling the kernel but SLES does not seem to match other Linux distro's, at least from the other posts I read for where to find these.
View 3 Replies View RelatedSUSE / Novell :: Grub Boot Loader - File Not Found - Error 15
Oct 12, 2010I am unable to get a knoppix poor mans install to boot using grub and opensuse 11.3. I have tried the same method on another box, same opensuse 11.3 and it boots fine. However, no matter what partition I put the knoppix files in on the problem box, it is the same error. I also have several opensuse kernels listed in the grub menu that were added when the kernel was updated, so the knoppix grub entry is off the screen. I have to down arrow to list the knoppix entry. I read that with this kind of error using ubunto as the host system, that running update-grub will force grub to look for bootable kernels and add it to the menu of boot choices. Does the same fix apply to opensuse 11.3? I have two versions of puppy linux working on this box as a poor mans install, so I am at a loss why it will not see the knoppix kernel. Can it be a problem of too many kernels listed in the menu.lst file? This box is a live update from opensuse 11.0.

Jan 22, 2010I am trying to set up a usb weather station (WMR100) on my SUSE 11.1 system. It appears as /dev/hiddev0 (and /dev/hidraw0) when it is plugged in with:
crw-rw---- 1 root root ...
It is the only hiddev device that appears in /dev
I have added this to /etc/udev/rules.d code...
(I will add idVendor/Product values later)
The above successfully sets the access codes for hiddev0 when examined from command line (crw-rw-rw- ...). However, the file browser is fine until I look at the properties for /dev/hiddev0 when it hangs - showing nothing.
Can anyone shed light on this - especially as to if I have done something wrong or this might be a 'bug'

What is missing, or is it a permission problem? All the other application icons seem fine.

I can't copy any files to it. Can't see in terminal even being root as well. Almost started the Partitioner in Yast but didn't want to accidently crash the system. That WOULD be my luck Can't find a way to format it via GUI interface. Can I use something like fdisk in terminal. I guess I need to format it as ext3.
