Software :: Upgrading RHEL 5 Kernel 2.6.18-164 To 2.6.18.164.10.1?
Jan 11, 2010
Was upgrading to the newest kernel in RHEL5 from 2.6.18-164 to 2.6.18-164.10.1 but when I rebooted the machine it gave me these errors.
Unable to access resume device(/dev/VolGroup00/LogVol01)
mount: could not find filesystem /dev/root
setuproot: moving /dev failed: no such file or directory
setuproot: error mounting /proc no such file or directory
setuproot: error mounting /sys no such file or directory
switchroot: mount failed: no such file or directory
kenel panic - not syncing Attempted to kill init!
So I rebooted the machine and picked the old kernel to boot up (2.6.18-164) and everything came back up fine. I don't understand why it keeps failing when trying to boot to the new kernel. I am using the yum upgrade command, is there a different command I should be using?

The RHEL 4 update 7 installation CD installs the kernel with version 2.6.9-78.EL and therefore must contain corresponding vmlinuz and initrd.img. However I would like to have an all modules initrd that is used during installation but for a different version (2.6.9-78.0.13.EL). Is there a way in which I could obtain/make such an initrd?

I have one machine where I have several versions installed on different partitions. The base partition (/dev/hda1) is Slack 12.1. On a spare partition (/dev/hdc4) I had installed Slackware64-current. Last week I slackpkg upgraded and installed the 2.6.32.2 kernel, and now that partition will not boot. I know that with the new kernels the hd* designation has been removed, and have already redone that fstab (accessing it from a different boot) to reflect the sd*. Here is the slack64 section of my lilo.conf:
Code:
# Linux bootable partition config begins
image = /other/spare4/boot/vmlinuz

When upgrading kernel via RPM, do I just need to download the RPM, and then do:
rpm -ivh file.rpm ?
Is kernel-headers needed?
Do I want to use force on either?
Example:
# wget ftp://ftp.pbone.net/mirror/ftp.cento...1.el5.i686.rpm
# rpm -ivh kernel-2.6.18-238.12.1.el5.i686.rpm

We bought a board with vortex 86x processor. we tried to install RHEL6 beta version. when we select the installation choice we were getting below error: "This kernel requires an i586 cpu, but only detected an i486 cpu. Unable to boot please use a kernel appropritate for your cpu."
We have contacted the board personal. he said(in his words)"If you need to use redhat, you have to use the config & patch file provided in the development note to develop a kernel which is suitable for redhat."

My application team is asking me to generate the kernel-dump.
Here are details about my server.
OS: RHEL 4.7/32 Bit
Kernel Version: 2.6.9-89.0.23.ELsmp
Processor: Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5520@ 2.27GHz
Hardware: HP Proliant 380G6 series server.
I am using Electric Cloud applications. Sometimes it creates some kernel panic and immediately got rebooted. Kernel-debuginfo rpm is not installed. In some thread, I read the kernel-debuginfo rpm's version should match with the kernel version. In my case I couldn't even find the exact version of kernel-debuginfo version.

We have not actually purchased support on a 2nd seat yet, so I can't go to them for this yet, and purchasing the seat may be silly if the machine can't run the OS.
I have tried several times to install RHEL 6 workstation onto a server machine. It has a dual drive RAID filesystem, whose configuration I had nothing to do with. The install procedes nicely but Displays a mdam error 127 before shutting down for the first real boot.
When booting a weird progress bar with at least 3 colors proceding at different rates displays for about 5 seconds followed by a very verbose kernel panic error which mentions tainted swap and scheduling while atomic. I suspect the error that caused the mess runs off screen too quickly to record.
Does anybody have a clue what might be happening? Even if I install minimal this happens so it appears to be a very low level hardware problem rather than a corrupt package.
I should mention that the machine runs on ubuntu 10.10 just fine, but my Lab PI wants to run it as a redhat system.

I've never compiled a kernel before and I'm in need of the 2.6.28 kernel (two words: macbook aluminium).
I guess my biggest question is, will this guide work well for F10? I would hate to get half-way through it just to find out that F10 does something different than F08 or F09. Is there anything that you experts can see right away that would possibly be disastrous? If things do come to worse, I can simply select the previous kernel at GRUB boot right?
Or will the Fedora team be releasing the update soon through the package manager? Is there a way I can activate the development version and only get the kernel update?

I upgraded, using package manager, to the latest kernel (2.6.35.10-72); I upgraded also kmod-nvidia and kmod-wl to the latest version, and the upgrade worked.After restarting the PC, though, it wouldn't boot Fedora: it stops at:"setting hostname for <my laptop's name>:[OK]"then it simply hangs there. It doesn't move, it doesn't boot, it doesn't ask for a login and it doesn't let me use command line.I can, however, boot and run Fedora fine if I select the previous kernel from the GRUB menu.Anybody can give me a hint to find the cause of the problem?

As seen in the screenshot, my update manager won't let me mark the proposed kernel updates for installation.I have heard that I would be able to mark them after a few days have passed ( I don't know the reason, though). Well, now it's been 3 weeks that I have them as "proposed updates" and I still can't mark them.I decided to run apt-get upgrade in the terminal and here is the output:
Code:
~$ sudo apt-get upgrade
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done

Code:
1. Upgrade the kernel and kernel-modules packages normally.
That sounds simple except that day-to-day, I don't run a stock Slackware kernel. I compile and run my own and always have. As I look back on my history with Slackware, I don't think I've ever upgraded kernel packages once I got a system up and running. When there's been big changes (2.4 to 2.6, for example), I've done a full re-install.
Most recently when I made the jump to 64bit, I did a full install using the huge.s kernel and once everything worked, I downloaded the current source from kernel.org and was on my way. I haven't booted huge.s since that day.
I do, of course, know how to upgrade my own custom kernel, but I like having huge.s installed as a backup. If I upgrade gcc/glibc, compile a new custom kernel and update lilo.conf/fstab without upgrading huge.s, then I will be left with only one working kernel.
So, my question is: is it simply a matter of running upgradepkg on the 6 kernel packages (headers, modules, firmware, generic, huge and source)? or is there more to it than that..ie, what about the system maps and symlinks in /boot?

I am facing an high CPU Usage 800% in a(Quad CPU, RHEL 64 bit kernel) with my C++ application .
The details are below:
1)The C++ Application has been compiled in RHEL (2.6.9-42.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Jul 12 23:27:17 EDT 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux)32 bit server(Quad CPU 8 cpu) in Dev lab. When this application has been tested for 12 hrs in the Dev lab, the CPU usage is varying between 20% to 50% .
However, when the above C++ application deployed in production which is RHEL (2.6.9-67.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Nov 7 13:56:44 EST 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)64 bit server the CPU usage is found to be increasing constantly to 800%.
2)When the CPU reached to 800% in Production Server, we have taken the pstack of the C++ Application process by using the command pstack p [captured thread id ] and we found that the pstack is showing the high CPU
usage (800%) in below libraries:
If there is any GLIB /pthread library/any other differences between 32 bit and 64 bit kernel. Since the application has been compiled in a 32 bit kernel and deployed in 64 bit kernel. Please provide your support on the same.

I have a hand-built kernel in Lenny. It's much smaller and faster than the stock kernel and doesn't need an initrd, but I am not sure how to upgrade it in a way that will be compatible with the new udev package. The recommended procedure is to upgrade the kernel and udev together and then reboot before doing the rest of the upgrade, but obviously I can't do that.
There seem to be two possible procedures I could follow:
1) Upgrade kernel sources and rebuild and install the kernel, then reboot and upgrade udev. But then the new kernel would be booting with the old udev and I don't know if that would work.
2) Upgrade, rebuild and install the kernel, then upgrade udev without rebooting, ignoring the warning messages. Finally reboot into the new kernel.

I am building a live-cd using live-helper on Karmic (9.10). The process executes fine and I am able to build a live cd of ~200MB in size with minimal and xfce. But things does not work if I try to upgrade the kernel with the one of them from [URL] site. Ubuntu kernel team publishes the kernel for testing and I would like to upgrade the kernel for testing. But when I upgrade the kernel from inside the live-helper's interactive shell, it upgrades fine and iso gets created. While booting, it loads the kernel and errors out with the following message:
Code:
(initramfs) mount: mounting aufs on /root failed: No such device.
aufs mount failed.
I am running initramfs after installing the new kernel (a .deb file) using dpkg.
What else should I need to do for getting this to work?

I have an Ubuntu 8.04 server running 2.6.24-23-server. I have a godaddy account and I am trying to upgrade my os version to 10.04, which requires a kernel upgrade. I have tried ksplice but kernel 2.6.24-23-server is not supported. I have heard about screen sessions but I have not found it possible to reboot one screen while having the other screen stay persistent if it is possible.So the main question is how to update Ubunut 8.04 to Ubuntu 10.04 with out rebooting the entire server? Rebooting is completely not an option at the moment.

I upgraded my Ubuntu 11.04 laptop to kernel 3.0.1 and when I try to start Conky using my custom conkyrc, the conky process dies. I played around with it and discovered (through trial and error testing) that the code for the CPU temperature crashes conky. It worked before the upgrade. how I can get the CPU temp monitoring working again in kernel 3.0.1? Here is the code that is crashing conky:
