[SOLVED] can't boot after kernel upgrade

I'm on 3.5.4-1-ARCH, then I upgrade to linux-3.5.6-1 and reboot. The result is a message that cant load "autofs4" module. And a "uname -r" says me: 3.5.4-1-ARCH instead of 3.5.6!!
I've tried to run depmod after the upgrade with de same result.

It sounds as if the new kernel did not find its way to your boot partition.  This could have been because the boot partition was not mounted when you did the upgrade (in which case the file is in the /boot mount point of your root partition) or that you are not booting from the partition you are expecting (Do you, per chance, have two boot partitions?)
Regardless, boot from an install media and fix it from the command line.  if the files are in /boot of the root partition rather then one the boot partition, mount both volumes and just move the files.  If there are multiple boot partitions, move the files to the correct partition.  Once you reboot, fix the /etc/fstab to point to the correct boot partition.

  • Won't boot after kernel upgrade

    I installed Arch and attempted to upgrade the kernel. I had to remove these pkgs because the depended on previous kernel:

    ndiswrapper
    rt2500
    tiacx
    After kernel upgrade, won't boot:

    This is the final error messages after making the following attempts to correct the problem:
    Added rootfstype=ext3 to kernel line.
    Added rootdelay=8 (then 20) t6o kernel line.
    Replaced UUID moniker with /dev/sda1 (SATA drive).
    Checked /dev/ in recovery shell, no HD's listed.
    Checked /etc/mkinitcpio.conf and it has sata listed under HOOKS.

  • [SOLVED] nfsroot install broken after kernel upgrade 3.5.6 to 3.6.2

    It looks to me like the client is sending the mount request, the server accepts and then for some reason the client thinks it has failed. I can't even see anything strange in the wireshark traces comparing the working client (3.5.6) to the broken one (3.6.2).
    Anyone else using nfsroot successfully with the latest kernel?
    Any other ideas?
    (by the way - despite my directory names, this is using nfs v3 for the rootfs)

    That unmount issue will be solved by FS#32021.
    Unfortunately, that doesn't help with mounting in the first place with 3.6.2

  • [SOLVED] Unable to boot after last upgrade [HP Smart Array]

    Hello guys.
    After last upgrade I'm unable to boot. I have fileserver with 2 discs in HP Smart Array RAID 1.
    While booting, kernel is unable to find my raid (should be cciss) and therefore lvm2 hook fails to find root partition. While going into recovery, I can chroot without an issue, lsmod shows that cciss driver is properly loaded, disk exits in /dev/cciss/, logical group and volumes are detected properly.
    No matter what I do, I just can't get cciss module into kernel. Putting in MODULES in mkinitcpio.conf's MODULES="" didn't help. I'm listing my initramfs images and there is no cciss.ko. I'm also searching for module in my filesystem and can not find it.
    Any help will be appreciated.

    Second, after editing /etc/mkinitcpio.conf you need to regenerate your initramfs.

    But the MODULES section needs to have something in there...
    Here's mine:
    MODULES="pata_amd sata_nv ehci-hcd ohci-hcd ext2 ext3 ext4 vfat snd-hda-intel"
    You probably need "mdadm" or "mdadm_udev" in there too, I'm not sure... I don't use RAID, but maybe these will help:
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Mk … Using_RAID
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/So … ID_and_LVM
    HP Smart Array is hardware RAID, therefore I don't need mdadm. Right module should be cciss, but this is somehow not working. Adding this into MODULES does not add cciss module to image.
    When I'm booting from Arch install for recovery and chroot, cciss is loaded and my HP Smart Array disk is visible.

  • [SOLVED] Huge power consumption after kernel upgrade.

    Dear All,
    I have recently bought the new lenovo thinkpad X1 equipped with a Core I5 processors and 4GB of RAM.
    I am quite satisfied with this machine except for the fact that the fan is extremely loud (but perhaps a bios upgrade will fix problem).
    Now my problem:
    When I first installed Arch (first days of August) I ran powertop and the power consumption was around 10 Watts when idle with wifi card turned off.
    Now, after some upgrades, the power consumption raises to 18W in idle and consequently the battery lasts less than 2h.
    Here my current configuration:

    As far as I'm concerned, the kworker process is responsible most of the wakeups.

    enabling it by default in 3.0 caused regressions for some people, so it was
    disabled. Hopefully Intel figures it out, and we can switch it back on by
    default in 3.1 / 2.6.41 (until then, you'll have to set it by hand).

  • [SOLVED] Low quality windows after kernel upgrading

    Hello,
    I've got such a weird situation. After I upgraded to 3.12-2, my KDE windows got a low quality style. You can figure out better what I mean with this screenshot.
    I did try to reinstall the video driver (I'm using the integrated gpu currently), delete and recreate the KDE cache, and downgrade the kernel. But an even stranger thing is that although I downgraded the kernel, the system kept using the 3.12.2-2; I was able to use neither dhcpcd nor X too.
    I strongly think it's an hardware compatibility problem, don't you?

    It would have been better to post the exact commands you used and their result (what video driver? what KDE cache? what kernel? )
    I strongly think it's an hardware compatibility problem, don't you?
    How could that prevent you from downgrading the kernel?
    So you say that you downgraded the kernel, to 3.12.1-3 I presume, you rebooted and the machine still uses the 3.12.2-1 kernel!
    It's very strange : did the downgrading finished normally? Look into the pacman.log file and the kernel log messages in dmesg; and the xorg server log also, if possible with the new kernel and with the previous one. There is also the .xsession-errors file in $HOME.
    I know it's strange! I've never come across a similiar problem. And I'm gonna tell you more: it kept doing that even when the *.3-1 came out. I had to use the brute force. I manually removed the kernel images, the packages in the cache, and upgraded with --force, all that in live mode, and it worked fine.

  • [SOLVED] Can not boot after mishap with clonezilla

    Hi
    I was trying to back up my computer with Clonezilla. It kept telling me that the drive I was trying to back up (the only hard drive in my laptop and only has Arch Linux installed on it) had a GPT and MBR partition table. I thought that this was odd so booted back into Arch Linux and loaded up gparted and it said that the drive was MBR. So I ran clonezilla again and it said about a command to run to remove the GPT if you are sure that you are using MBR so I went ahead (stupidly) and ran it thinking that everything would be ok and now I can not boot back into my Arch Linux. I just get a black screen with GRUB and a flashing cursor. I think the command that I ran was either:
    gdisk -z /dev/sda
    or
    sdisk -z /dev/sda
    I'm not too sure and I should have written it down or researched it first. (That will teach me.) I have booted the computer from a Knoppix DVD and can see all the partitions on the drive (root, swap and home) and also read all the data. I have tried to reinstall grub (install-grub /dev/sda deom the Arch install cd) but this has not worked. I hope that as will most things Linux I can fix this. Please can you point me in direction I need to go to fix this?
    Thanks
    Robert

    Hi
    I have fixed it. I ran testdisk from Knoppix and let it write out the partition table again as MBR then reinstalled grub from the Arch Linux install CD by doing the following from with in grub:
    root (hd0,0)
    setup (hd0)
    Lesson learnt. I'll read and research before just blindly running commands again. Thank you all for reading.
    Thanks

  • Arch Won't Boot After Kernel Upgrade

    I installed Arch on VirtualBox, but after upgrading the Kernel to 2.6.30 it wouldn't boot. It gets to "Loading udev...." and then VirtualBox crashes.

    Hello, I'm having this same problem, except I'm not using VirtualBox or VMWare, I have Arch installed to the hard drive. It worked fine after upgrading to 2.6.30, but after upgrading kernel-headers to 2.6.30.1-1, neither Arch NOR Arch-Fallback will boot! I don't even get to Udev or the part where the two arch logos are on top. It just starts up a little bit, then restarts my computer.
    I don't even know if my system has been wiped or something, but I doubt that; I think it's just the booting process. I do have a 2009.2 Live CD, but it's an FTP installation. Is there any way to start up my live CD and do a pacman -U for the old kernel version with the cache on my hard drive? How would I do this?

  • [SOLVED] Can't boot after install

    I installed Archlinux using the FTP LiveCD. Everything finished good, and there were no errors. I then reboot and Grub comes up like it's supposed to. But when I try to boot into Arch it says:
    Booting 'Arch Linux'
    root (hd1,0)
    Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83
    kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/9e26f3d3-464b-4cca-9117-db1ff8v1a961 ro
    Error 15: File not found
    Press any key to continue...
    I tried going into the Grub and changing the by-uuid to /dev/sdb1 (Which is where the root partition is) but I got the same thing.
    My partition scheme is like so:
    /dev/sda1 /home
    /dev/sdb1 /
    /dev/sdb2 swap
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
    Thanks!!

    Thanks everyone for your help!!!!
    Maybe this should be documented: It is quite common that the BIOS drive order is different when booting from CD than when booting from the hard drive. Also, grub often guesses the drive order wrong. The only way to be sure is to install grub to the MBR and analyze the drives from there.
    Your problem might make more sense though: As you installed grub in the MBR of the second hard drive, you probably told the BIOS to boot from the second hard drive instead of the first. This causes most (all?) BIOSes to reorder the drives so that the second hard drive appears to be the first. And GRUB only accesses the hard drive through BIOS. Linux doesn't care though, it has its own order (which might change too) and we use UUIDs to identify the drives anyway.

  • For Those Who Can't Boot After Upgrading To 10.5.6

    For Those Who Can't Boot After Upgrading To 10.5.6
    (and i am one of those)
    how is Apple supposed to make them able to install future fixes and updates
    once they finally acknowledge and address this horrible bug?
    will they send free bootable CDs with the updates to 10.5.6?

    What "Boot ROM version" do you have (check in the system profiler under "Hardware")? If it's not MBP31.0070.B07 or MBP21.00A5.B08, then you will need to update your MacBook Pro's firmware. To do this, you might need to connect an external display and mouse/keyboard, and then run the computer with the lid closed to bypass the laptop's monitor. Then apply the firmware patch and reboot the system. This might also be doable via "Screen Sharing" if you have that enabled and have another mac handy.
    The firmware update is here: http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/firmware_hardware/macbookproefifirmw areupdate151.html

  • [Solved by itself] Loading module aha152x failed after kernel upgrade

    Hi all,
    I have a ten-year old Epson GT5500 scanner plugged onto an ISA card.
    This was quite hard to get it working under linux but it worked well untill yesterday last update.
    I have the following error output when trying to load aha152x module:
    # modprobe aha152x
    FATAL: Error inserting aha152x (/lib/modules/2.6.27-ARCH/kernel/drivers/scsi/aha152x.ko): No such device
    I have the following line in /etc/modules.conf:
    alias scsi_hostadapter aha152x options aha152x aha152x=0x140,9
    How can I get the scanner back to work?
    Thanks.

    No. The configuration to get the scanner working under linux comes from a how-to and remains valid after kernel upgrades -- until yesterday. It does not need any module building, only loading.

  • Mac mini won't boot after RAM upgrade.

    Tried installing new RAM in my Mac Mini, 512MB stock to 2GB of Crucial. Followed the directions to a T, grounded myself the whole time.
    Things I've tried so far:
    1. Resetting the PRAM, no luck.
    2. Holding option at start-up, shows no icon.
    3. Holding shift, no luck.
    4. Holding X, nothing.
    How do I get it to accept a CD if it won't boot?

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    You clearly have a problem, but you don't describe exactly what that is other than that your mini won't boot after the upgrade. What happens when it starts up? Does it attempt to start and hang up on the grey or blue screens, or does it start beeping at you almost immediately after you try and start it up, and also flash the power light?
    If the former, then you may have dislodged a connector while working inside the system, in which case opening it up and checking that everything is firmly connected would be the first thing to do. If the latter, then the beeping/light flashing is the system telling you it has failed the power-on self test and the pattern of beeps/lights indicates why. In your case likely the system can't find workable memory. In that instance, opening the system and ensuring that the RAM is firmly and fully seated would be a good step, and if the mini continues to fail, then replacing the new RAM with the original to test that the system will then start.
    It is not likely that anything had damaged your MacOS install in the process of upgrading, thus normally no reason to need to boot to CD as a result of a RAM issue.

  • MacBook not booting after RAM upgrade

    I'm sorry if the case has been already posted.
    Yesterday I took my MacBook Alu unibody late 2008 to a RAM upgrade (from 2 to 4gigs) to an offical Mac Reseller. They installed it and showed me that the system loads properly and recognized the new RAM.
    I took it home, started working on After Effects and Photoshop and when i wanted to check a video on Quicktime, this program refused to boot.
    Then photoshop freeze and after effects did so. I quited all aplications and restarted. On restart after the 'bong' i've got the grey screen white an apple logo and a loading bar underneath, that was it, it never finished loading but shutting down.
    After the 2nd try the computer gave me the BAD RAM alarm signal right before the start button was pressed and nothing more. I just managed to start it ONCE on safe mode, but this one also freezed and colapsed.
    Today i didn't get the BAD ram alarm but the grey screen and loading bar after shutting down.
    I took it back to the reseler, the shop boss who did the upgrade wasn't there , the guys on the morning shift placed the old RAM back resulting the same. So they told me it's a software problem, not hardware and might be caused by a failed firmware update or something i did wrong and since i was showed that the system booted after the upgrade i can't complain or argue that they did somethiing wrong.
    So basically the want 80euros to check what's wrong with my computer plus the 120 i already payed them for a RAM that doesn't work and of course the repair cost of the computer.
    On monday i'll go to talk to the boss, what do you guys recomend me to tell him? i'm frustrated that the guys there treat me like if i broke my computer for beeing stupid and wanted to get it fixed for free, when it clearly broke after they did something wrong on it!
    please advice me!
    thanks!

    What brand is the RAM? From what you said, it is obvious that the RAM is at fault. I would simply tell them that it is not compatible and return the RAM.
    Check the System Profiler to see what it says about the RAM (Apple Logo - About this Mac - More Info) and run this application to test the RAM:

    If either shows any errors, print out the results and take them with you to the store.
