Specifically, I'd love to know what the valid values of:
And, where I can find this information? I've always wondered if it was documented somewhere, or if there was an interface into the kernel to query for it.
I've compiled the kernel 2.6.33, configured it and installed (make install)
When it boots up I get the following messages: RAMDISK: I can't find a valid disk image at 0 VFS: Couldn't open root at /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.33mykerne1 or block (0,0)
Code: My current system configuration is: Linux domenico-laptop 2.6.24-16-generic /etc/boot/menu.lst titleUbuntu 8.04, kernel 2.6.24-16-generic
This problem has arrived again.......I tried the same solution but didn't work out...the problem is described below.
I use Ubuntu 9.10 .
I did this in Ubuntu 9.10 live CD.

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mkdir /win ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount /dev/sda5 /win ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mkdir /vdisk ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount -o loop /win/ubuntu/disks/root.disk /vdisk

The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
I added an ext4dev filesystem to my hard drive as /dev/sda3 and mounted at /share with the goal of putting all of my multimedia files on it and sharing it through NFS. I followed this guide: [url]
Of course, this was from lenny (hence the -dev). The partition was fine, and I mounted it numerous times. I also performed a dist-upgrade to squeeze. I shutdown that computer with the usual 'shutdown -h now' and disconnected the AC power cord from it, because I wasn't planning on using that machine for awhile. As far as I could determine, everything was fine before I unplugged it.
Every time that computer is powered off, the clock resets to 1999 because the battery is bad. So I am used to getting the "last mount time is in the future" error.
Three weeks after halting, I powered the computer back on. It was unplugged until this point. I got an error message when it attempted to mount /dev/sda3
I then removed its line from /etc/fstab, rebooted. and tried to check it, but I just keep getting the same error-- even with the '-b 8193' option.
The machine is still using the 2.6.26 kernel from lenny. I am building a new one right now (2.6.30), hoping that the problem is caused by the ext4dev/ext4 module. Otherwise I don't know what to do.
When i install libdrm, i get the following error:checking for clock_gettime... no.checking for clock_gettime in -lrt... no.configure: error: Couldn't find clock_gettime
It seems that it cannt find clock_gettime function, but i find it as follow: $ grep clock_gettime /usr/include/time.h extern int clock_gettime (clockid_t __clock_id, struct timespec *__tp) __THROW;
I am trying to run i386 in gcc_test-suite using dejagnu runtest and it fails with error given below. I can see that gcc-dg.exp is in folder gcc-4.6-20100911/gcc/testsuite/lib, but runtest is not searching in this folder.
how to resolve this issue and run only i386 tests.
$ cd /gcc-4.6-20100911/gcc/testsuite/gcc.target $ runtest -a -tool i386 -verbose .... .... Looking for library file /usr/local/share/dejagnu/lib/gcc-dg.exp
I'm trying to install libboost-all and libboost-all-dev, but it says the package couldn't be found! Any idea how to install this via putty now? Also, how can I update my cmake to 2.6.x ? it's at 2.4.7
I have a x64 OpenSUSE server with two hard drivers installed. The first one is used for the / and /home partitions and the other is for backups. Ironically enough it is the backup hard drive I am having trouble with. I was having trouble writting to the drive and unmounted it to preform a fchsk, however now when ever I try to mount it I get the following error:
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on /dev/sda1, missing codepage or helper program, or other error In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try dmesg | tail or so
Does anyone know who I can repair the drive and retrive data?
After several crashes during videos it seemed like a good idea to fsck root. Downloaded the latest systemrescuecd and ran it at boot. The error message was 'bad magic number, corrupt superblock' with a suggested command to try another superblock. That failed with the same message. Tried tune2fs to force fsck at boot and got the same message. The drive is less than 6 months old and the installed system is working more or less ok. The command I used was 'fsck.ext4 /dev/sdc2'. What am I doing wrong?
I recently upgrade to Fedora 14 from 13. It was an in-place upgrade. I can't recall for sure, but I do believe I had these problems in F13 before the upgrade. The F13 install was from a Live CD. Anyway, I have a three drive RAID 5 array setup - 3x 750GB. For some very annoying reason, each time I reboot my F14 system, it hangs with an error about not being able to find a superblock on /dev/md126 and /dev/md127. I have tried to stop and remove /dev/md126 and /dev/md127 but they always seem to come back. I have also noticed in the output of fdisk -l that drives sda and sdd like to swap places sometimes for an unknown (to me) reason. Any other output that is needed, please ask. I recreated the array just yesterday with:
Code: mdadm --create --verbose /dev/md0 --level=5 --raid-devices=3 /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1 /dev/sdd1 I would cat mdadm.conf in /etc, but I removed it previously to try to figure out the problem and it was not
I did a tune2fs -l on some volumes of mine, and a few say "not clean" as the filesystem state. But how do I tell what's causing it to be not clean, or how severe it is, so i know how soon i need to schedule downtime to run a e2fsck on that volume?
I try to do a upgrade on my fedora 6 ill 10. But when I try to write yum update or yum upgrade on my server a get this error: yum update Loading "installonlyn" plugin Setting up update process Setting up repositories Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: extras
I'm relatively experienced with UNIX and Linux, but this has me thrown for quite a loop, and it seemed like such a simple question. How would I go about finding the newest file in a file system? I thought something like:
Code:
ls -ltr `find /usr -type f`
would work, but I seem to be exceeding the argument maximum for ls:
ksh: 0403-029 There is not enough memory available now
I thought something involving xargs might work, but I really suck with that command.
I recently did my first installation of centos on a vm. I tried playing around for a while but when I tried doing an update it says Determining fastest mirrors for a while then gave me Could not retrieve mirrorlist [url]
When trying to run 'yum update' or 'yum install' i get the following message:
Quote:
# yum update Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, kmod Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile YumRepo Error: All mirror URLs are not using ftp, http[s] or file.
i am trying to install the GD2 extension for PHP but i am not sure how to do this. i have try the
yum install php-gd Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://apt.sw.be/dries/fedora/fc4/mirrors-rpmforge error was [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404: Not Found Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: rpmforge
I have a server running centos 5 located in a datacenter. I am setting it up as a web server but haven't bothered to move the domain from my current registrar to the server as there are a lot of things I need to get done before that. I am having a problem where I couldn't install httpd. So i tried some of the basic fixes i knew as far as yum clean all and checking that my /etc/resolv.conf was ok. I have the two nameservers I am using listed there but I have no hostname set because I simply dont have the domain transferred or anything like that yet. Is that the reason I am having these issues. I installed the system with a network install fine about a month ago so im not sure why I am having problems now.When i try to ping centos.org I get an unknown host www.centos.org error. I tried changing the resolv.conf to have localhost as the hostname and I still have the same issues. I havent made any changes to anything that would potentially cause this.
My etc/resolv.conf looks like this: search nameserver 12.34.567.8 nameserver 12.34.566.8
Also it seems the problem may have got worse after yum clean-all because before that when I would try 'yum install httpd' it would show the files and filesizes and ask to install, when I would select yes It would give an error showing it could not find the fastestmirror. Now it doesn't give any file size or files or an option to approve the install. It just responds with an error saying it could not retrieve mirrorlist <urlopen error (-3, 'Temporary failure in name resolution' Error Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: base
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Repository updates is listed more than once in the configuration Determining fastest mirrors YumRepo Error: All mirror URLs are not using ftp, http[s] or file. Eg. 13 is not a valid release or hasnt been released yet/ removing mirrorlist with no valid mirrors: /var/cache/yum/i386/13/base/mirrorlist.txt Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: base
i was installing YUM GROUPINSTALL 'DEVELOPMENT TOOLS' but in start i got an error saying "Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: extras". how can i solve this issue?
I just want to upgrade my Slackware 13.1 kernel (2.6.33.4) to the latest stable kernel from kernel.org (2.6.38.2). I have never done anything like this and I am a Linux newbie, so I would appreciate a "Kernel Patching for Dummies" version if possible. I did do a search on this forum and most of what I read was over my head. I found an FAQ on kernelnewbies.org on "How To Apply A Patch" but when I attempted what they suggested, it said it couldn't find the file to patch at line 5 and asked me which file to patch. So I CTRL-Z'd out of there and came here. Here's what I tried:
I have some large volumes that I don't want to automatically be e2fsck'd when I reboot the server. Is it safe to change maximum mount count to -1 and check interval to 0 while a volume is mounted, or will that cause problems to the file system?
I keep getting the following error when trying to install anything:
Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/mirrorl...d-11&arch=i386 error was [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404: Not Found Error: Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: rpmfusion-free-updates
So this tells me the servers are down however if i put the link in FF I don't get 404.I am installing on a new box and I can't get the stuff I need.
I am having issues with 3d I am trying to start up a game called auteria but it displays this error "Could not find a compatible opengl display resolution. Please check your driver configuration. (Error: Couldn't find a matching GLX visual)" I am on ubuntu 10.10 could anybody give me a solution on how to fix this issue?
I'm planning on running DirectAdmin on OpenSUSE 11.3 but I couldn't find anything about it. So my question is if anyone actually has done it before.. with good results preferably.
