Software :: Stuck In Init 3 Although Indicates Its Init 5?
Mar 17, 2011
openSUSE 10.3 on Itronix IX260+ Stuck on command line, init 3, and all attempts at graphic init 5 fail. Get these messages:(EE) No devices detected; Fatal screen error: no screens found; AIGLX disabled Primary Device is PCI 01:00:0kernel:device-mapper:multipath round-robin:version 1.0.0 loaderkernel:device-mapper:table:253:0:multipath: error getting device
kernel:device-mapper:ioctl: error adding target to tableProblem would seem to be with the device-mapper, but have no idea how to fix it.
I've been dual booting 10.10 with Windows7 for about a month. Today is the first time I've encountered a serious problem.
This morning, nothing functioned properly after trying to open several programs. The computer seemed to be "frozen", although the mouse was working fine.
I decided to reboot, but then encountered an even bigger problem.
It failed to boot and got this message: no init found. try passing init= bootarg
The problem now is that it requires a Live CD session and I keep getting this: GLib-WARNING **: getpwuid_r(): failed due to unknown user id (0)
In case it matters, I didn't install 10.10 from an ISO, I just upgraded from 10.04.
Ubuntu 9.10 will not boot! System froze this morning, I restarted and it is now failing to boot. Starts loading grub and I get this message:
mount: mounting /dev/disk/by-uuid/04aa3697-7bc0-45b5-b86a-77a1e6534bd5 on /root failed: invalid argument mount: mounting /sys on /root/sys failed: no such file or directory mount: mounting /dev on /root/sys failed: no such file or directory
[code]....
I booted with 9.04 LiveCD discovered the drive could not be mounted-ran fsck -ln and it told me the drive has no valid partition table. I have had intermittent problems mounting flash drives before this, so I'm kind of worried it might be a hardware issue.Also have files on that drive I would rather not lose, so reinstalling is hopefully a last resort.
I have written an init script and placed it in /etc/init.d/ directory.What I would like to know is, will the script run automatically or we need to install the script using "install_initd" command.If I have to invoke this command manullay, what will be the best place to do this ? Can I add this to "/etc/init.d/rcS" file
While I was using my computer a few days ago, the terminal stopped working properly, so I tried to reboot, and when it started up again it wouldn't boot and said "no init found. try passing init=bootarg"
This has happened twice before, so I really need to figure out what keeps happening, otherwise I can't continue to use linux. i reinstalled both times before. i think that this is caused by a process that prevents me from using the hard drive, because when I try to check the disk in the terminal or in gparted, it says Device or resource busy while trying to open /dev/sda1. Filesystem mounted or opened exclusively by another program?
Also, in the disk utility, in the lower right corner of the filesystem it has a spinning "loading wheel".(i'm not sure if that means anything)
I am using ubuntu 10.10, but am not sure what kernel I am using, but i tried a few different kernel options(there's three of them at start up). safe mode does not work either.
Lately I've been trying to install the Nvidia Cuda driver for Linux.In order to do this, I have to tun a .run file. When I run it in the console, It says that I can't install when running the X server. So I try to use "init 3".When I type it, and hit enter, the screen goes black, no blinky cursor thing, just a frozen black screen. I followed one of the nvidia tutorials on here to get the normal nvidia driver, and it worked successfully.Before I installed the nvidia driver, when I would use "init 3" I would get a colourful console window with random coloured blocks of random lettering. It seems that installing the nvidia form the tutorial turned this into a black screen.
ow Debian init system is organized actually (btw i am using stretch) ? I see systemd installed, with some services run from it (systemctl shows a small list), but at the same, i still see /etc/init.d full of traditional init scripts.
I need to start script I created every time so I created: /etc/init.d/startflowcapture. There I put: flow-capture -w /var/netflow/ft 0/0/2055 -S5 -V5 -E1G -n 287 -N 0 -R /usr/local/netflow/bin/linkme
I made it executable: chmod +x /etc/init.d/startflowcapture But permanently adding it to rc defaults shows this error: update-rc.d startflowcapture defaults update-rc.d: using dependency based boot sequencing insserv: warning: script 'K01startflowcapture' missing LSB tags and overrides insserv: warning: script 'startflowcapture' missing LSB tags and overrides
im just stating in fedora..why does i cant restart/start/stop my /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb ? actually i notice that there are no "smb" or "samba" file exist in my /etc/rc.d/init.d/ or in /etc/init.d/
and there is no smb or samba found in my /sbin/chkconfig but i have my samba installed. Im using fedora 10
This is a minor annoyance, but I'd like to know how to fix it... When starting Fedora 12 with KDE, the KDE icon is twice the size of the other icons. I figure it is easy to make it the same size as all the other icons, but I don't know how. If this seems confusing, I am referring to the screen that appears after you enter your password and before the KDE desktop appears. A set of icons appear one at a time. The KDE icon is clearly twice as large as the others.
I am trying to install a new NVIDIA Driver. as I usualy do I go to a terminal logging off and using "ctrl+Alt +F2" logging in as root and entering "init 3" but when I run "sh NVIDIA" it tells me "X server is still running." If I enter "init 5" it goes right to a gui. I have tried "killlall X11" with no results.
At boot, the system hangs before reaching runlevel 5. No X, no alternative non graphical shells.
Since I have a video card Radeon 9200 I checked the ATI issues. I am running with the radeonhd drivers as suggested. If I boot in failsafe mode, X starts with a really low definition (800x640?), but when booting normally, the system hangs again.
I tried to create a xorg.conf file. Sax hangs the same way as when booting. I created anyway a reasonable xorg.conf using
Code: Xorg -configure
The first reboot works, from the second on I am stuck again.
When I run the command startx it launches me immediately into Gnome without having to login and if I attempt to go back to the command line interface by typing in the comamnd init 3 in the x-terminal it does nothing. If I attempt to hit CTRL-ALT-Backspace it does nothing however if I were to run init 5 it launches me into the Gnome Display Manager and expects me to login and if I run init 3 in the x-terminal it shutdowns the x-server and returns me to the command line interface.
I just installed my machine with ubuntu 9.04. When I run "init 3" or "telinit 3", nothing happens. I need to exit the X server to install a video driver.
I have a startup bash script to give the user options at startup (launch firefox etc), however it causes ubuntu to hang on the loading screen with red things at startup. I dropped into command line and removed it, so that is definitely the problem. The script works...does anyone know if having a startup script in init.d can open a terminal to interact with the user, and why this script causes ubuntu to be unable to startup?
Actually, I want to add my programe called 'fw1loggrabber' to be added once the computer boot (without considering specific time / without CRON). I have check in internet, what should i do are create an init script then make a symbol link under /etc/rc2.d for start and stop the programe. I have modify "Skeleton" script that i find from /etc/init.d/ to be suitable to my programm
I've been using ubuntu for around 4 months now and have never had a problem until recently. My OS became unresponsive all of a sudden and all I could do was force shutdown my laptop by holding the power button. When I turned it back on, I was given the "No init found. Try passing init= bootarg" error. I have looked around online and most solutions point towards a live cd, which I don't have.
I have a Dell Mini 12 running what I think is Ubuntu 10.10 Netbook Remix. It won't boot all of a sudden, saying 'No init found'. I've been through [URL].. which is VERY close to my problem but I cannot get Disk Utility to work when running off my Live USB. Asking it to check the hard drive results in it telling me the filesystem is 'not clean'.
I installed ntop and it works but I cant make it autostart with my server. I started ntop with its parameters and it works as a daemon but if I restart the server ntop wont load even if an ntop file is in /etc/init.d. I executed rcconf and it wont list ntop. How can I make it autostart in daemon with my parameters? (like ntop -d -w12345)
