[Solved] Install Arch 64 on new hardware (Intel I7-860, P55, Nvidia 46

Hi,
I just installed new hardware in my computer and wanted to install Arch Linux 64Bit on it. I got through the installation as usual, no special configuration done here. Then I tryed to boot my computer into ArchLinux which fails as after GRUB I only see a black screen.
I tried many different screen resolutions so that's not the problem. I waited for at least 5min but the screen stays black.
This is my hardware setup:
- Asus P7P55D Pro (Intel P55 Extreme Chipset)
- Intel i7-860
- MSI N460 GTX Hawk
- 8GB DDR3 Ram
I honestly have no idea what could cause the problem. Something special regarding kernel version, os configuration that i missed? I appreciate your help.
Thanks,
aXyde

After I saw this thread https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=111805 which described a similiar problem to mine I added "nomodeset" to the kernel command line and all is working fine.

[SOLVED] Black Screen in new Installation (Intel GMA 3650)

Hi everybody,
I installed Arch on my new DN2800MT system using the Archboot installer (2012.04-2) for UEFI boot support. GRUB2 is running fine after all. The only problem is, that the screen turns black/completely off during the boot process. The installation seems to work in principle: if I wait a while, log in and type "shutdown -h now" or "reboot" the system shuts down or reboots. Just the output seems to be broken.
A video can be found on YouTube. A screenshot immediately before it turns black:
The last lines are
:: Waiting for UDev uevents to be processed
[ 6.444167] gma500 0000:00:02.0: GPU: power management timed out.
Interestingly the boot of the Archboot DVD also starts with the screen turning black. Some time later the the boot process seems to fix the issue at hand: the screen comes back alive. I also posted a video of that process on YouTube. The messages on the screen when it turns back on:
This behavior of Archboot indicates that this problem can be solved somehow. I would appreciate every hint on what's wrong a lot. For modification of the installed system I can boot Archboot, mount the installation and chroot into it.
Thanks a lot guys!

Yeah you're right: it's totally hopeless. I now basically have two options: using an old AIF to install an older version of arch with a local repo, kernel <= 2.6.37 and Xorg <= 1.9 to get the old Intel poulsbo driver running or using Windows 7. I think the latter is the better choice.
There is only one very faint hope for a crazy solution: in the dependencies of the old pulsbo driver itself the kernel version isn't mentioned. What do you think of the idea of using the new gma500_gfx module with fbdev for xorg and the old binary driver just for VAAPI? VAAPI is in principle independent of xorg. So in theory this works, right?
[EDIT] This crazy idea has one flaw: the old drivers are i686-only (because of the binary blobs). At that time all systems with poulsbo graphics controller were 32-bit so that is reasonable. I impudently asked Intel support for the two binary blobs compiled for 64-bit. I mean: they sell a fully integrated system incompatible with their own binary driver for linux. Let's wait for the answer. If they turn me down, it means bye-bye to Linux .
I just received (today) a CedarTrail Netbook (Atom N2800) and discovered with horror that the graphic chipset is not supported. Please let me know if Intel will give you an answer since I was thinking of directly contact them too.
Btw, how did you contact them, can you give me a mail/website/other?
Thanks

NI-DAQmx 8.3.0f0 installed but Found New Hardware Wizard shows up when plugging in a USB-6008

I have NI-DAQmx Device Driver 8.3.0f0 installed with LabVIEW 8.2 but when I plug in a NI USB-6008 I see the "Found New Hardware Wizard" in Windows XP. Since the DAQmx driver is installed shouldn't Windows recognize the device immediately?
I cancel the driver and I get the taskbar message "A problem occurred during hardware installation. Your device may not work properly."
The USB-6008 does not appear under Devices and Interfaces in MAX.
Help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave

Ahh, I thought Windows performed an automatic search after cancel is clicked.
I clicked next and allowed Windows to search and it says:
"Cannot Start this Hardware"
There was a problem installing this hardware: USB-6008
The device cannot start. (Code 10)
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the device but the results were the same.
Any ideas?

[Solved] Installing arch on a notebook /w a 2.6.33+ chipset

Hi,
quick question:
I'd like to install arch on a notebook with a chipset that is not supported until 2.6.33.
The installation images however look rather old, so I'm afraid i won't even get to the installation step where I can chose which kernel to install.
What's the best way to do this?
*fixed typo
Last edited by Zoranthus (2010-04-22 13:41:01)

If you're referring to the Arrandale Chipset then you probably won't have any trouble with the official installation image. I used it to install a Clarkdale system without any trouble at all. The system even ran fine with 2.6.32 kernel.
You should use ethernet to connect to the internet during the installation though since your laptop probably has a very new wifi card too. If you choose netinstall you'll get 2.6.33.2-1 or later and you'll be good to go.

[SOLVED] Install Arch Linux on USB Stick!

So, here is the deal. I want to install Arch Linux on a USB Stick so I can plug it at any computer and have my system... with me
I've had a little bit experience with Arch so I know a few things about it... used it for a few months before on a real system.
My USB stick is a HighSpeed 17-20 MBPS and it's 16 GB capacity.
So how do I do it?
Last edited by 1lj4z1 (2012-04-05 07:25:53)

I'm using occasionally Arch installed on HDD-USB, I've just added usb hook to mkinitcpio.conf and removed autodetect (more modules=more hardware supported). So far it worked on 3 different computers (all of them have one main HDD so no grub issues, but it's no biggie if it doesn't boot right away, you can always edit grub on-the-fly by pressing "e")
About USB stick: installing on USB stick is not the same as running it in LIVE mode! Consider yourself warned.
If you just install it you really should read about SSD optimizations because USB flash cells also have limited read/write cycles (actually is less robust and sophisticated than SSD). Something to look at: noatime mount option, disable swap if not necessary, profile-sync-daemon and so on...
1lj4z1 wrote:Well I don't need to chroot, i am running it live. I'll see about mkinitcpio.conf but I can't understand what you mean rebuilding initramfs? What is that exactcly?
It means if you fiddle with mkinitcpio you should run:
# mkinitcpio -p linux
afterwards or bad things will happen

SOLVED - Reinstall Arch on new thumb drive

Hello all, I'm a noob to Linux, but not afraid of command lines (old school dos guy). I bought a pogoplug on a whim and installed using these instructions: http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv5 … 2-pinkgray but I would like to reinstall arch on a new faster thumb drive and start over. My question is how to go about this (I did google it too). I would like to avoid bricking the pogo. This is my thinking:
sda is the current slow, small, old thumbdrive, i plug in my new drive it would be sdb right?
My pass at the reinstall:
Start fdisk on the USB drive:
/sbin/fdisk /dev/sdb
At the fdisk prompt, delete old partitions and create a new one:
Type o. This will clear out any partitions on the drive.
Type p to list partitions. There should be no partitions left.
Now type n, then p for primary, 1 for the first partition on the drive, and then press ENTER, accepting default values.
Exit by typing w.
Now create the ext2 filesystem:
wget http://archlinuxarm.org/os/pogoplug/mke2fs
chmod 755 mke2fs
./mke2fs /dev/sdb1
mkdir usb
mount /dev/sdb1 usb
Download and install Arch Linux ARM:
cd usb
wget http://archlinuxarm.org/os/ArchLinuxARM … est.tar.gz
tar -xzvf ArchLinuxARM-armv5te-*.tar.gz # This will take a long time
rm ArchLinuxARM-armv5te-*.tar.gz
sync # Takes a while when using a flash drive
Clean up, reboot, remove old thumb drive. Cross your fingers and hope for the best.
cd ..
umount usb
/sbin/reboot
Once powered down, pull old thumb drive
The SSH key of your device will be different, so you need to tell Mac OS X or Linux to remove it from ~/.ssh/known_hosts before using SSH again:
ssh-keygen -R 192.168.1.123 # Use your device's IP
Log back in after your Pogoplug reboots using username root and password root.
*whew* so am I missing a step? Will the bootloader balk at the new drive?
Thanks in advance

Not sure. But I think they are images and system tar in your link.
For images I would use dd (as say Ŝaran and later resize). You write all the system in the thumb drive and get a bootloader.
The second (systema tar), you get all files but you don't get bootloader.
You can do, too, what Ŝaran say. Do an image of your current system with dd. It's like clonning. Later resize your filesystem.
dd if=old_thumb_drive of=new_thumb_drive bs=4M
(from a third system)
Beware with dd and /dev/ (same people say that it stands for data destroyer)
*bs=4M is, generally, the block size of thumbdrives. So it takes less time to write.

[Solved] Installed Arch, I have a kernel problem.

Hi guys, I'm new here, but I use only linux since 2003. I have a problem at boot... When I choose arch from the bootloader I get this:

Or something very very similar. I see that I'm not the only one experiencing this problem so I try solving by myself following hints I've found on this forum... but nothing changed.

That's very curious. I'm just having this problem after installing the lowlatency kernel from this repo:
Server = http://arch.madfire.net/proaudio/i686
So I've just changed the initrd /boot/kernel26.img to /boot/kernel26rt.img and I'm getting exactly the same error. I've also tried changing sda with hda in the grub's menu.lst but nothing changed...

[SOLVED] Installing Arch x86_64 to HP Chromebook 14 Model 14-q013 4GB

Hello All,
I've had success installing a basic Arch system to my HP Chromebook 14 Model 14-q013sa 4GB, but only if selecting x686 instead of x86_64
The result is, (it's very early days, so please excuse any mistakes) Gnome reporting only 2GB RAM
free -m lists 2010 Total also.
I have tried pressing TAB on the x86_64 install and adding mem=4G or mem=4GB but it simply re-boots.
Any ideas at all for installing the 64bit version of Arch please?
Many thanks everyone.

It seems that chromebook has an Intel® Celeron® 2955U processor (http://store.hp.com/UKStore/Merch/Produ … U&sel=PCNB)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celeron_2 … C_22_nm.29
Looks like it should be a 64-bit processor.

[SOLVED] install arch VM with pacstrap

Dear all,
I am installing a Arch VM on my Arch host. The host is up-to-date, well configured (at least I think) in a vanilla manner (no suspicious hacks).
# pacstrap -i -c -d /dahlia base base-devel
is installing all packages but gives me this error many times:
/usr/bin/bash: error while loading shared libraries: libreadline.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
error: command failed to execute correctly
Googling this error returns lot of topics but I couldn't find a clear answer. I do not want to start with a semi-broken arch VM, so I want to solve this issue before going further.
Thank you

Install Leopard on new 27" Intel iMac

We're still a CS3 house, no funds to update all the hardware and software to enable us to upgrade all our users to CS4 ... until late next year. In the meantime, everyone is running Leopard (G4s, G5s, and up).
In the meantime, however, we've purchased several new 27" iMacs, all of which come with Snow Leopard, which we cannot downgrade. I spoke with an Apple tech today, and was told that I could partition the hard drive to install Leopard and Snow Leopard, but I don't know how to do this. Since the new iMac will NOT boot to the Leopard DVD, how do I get Leopard onto the second partition? I've created the partitions and Snow Leopard is running on the smaller partition. Migration Assistant will move the users, apps and files over to the other partition, but not the O.S.
Can I simply just copy the Leopard System Folder from the old QuickSilver (which the iMac is replacing) onto the partition on the iMac which I want to run Leopard? I know this used to work in the olden days ( ... sigh), but I'm doubtful that it's that easy these days.
Thanks for your help.

I understand how the budget is the budget--and that it will only stand so much.

Unfortunately, the tech gave you bad advice. You won't be able to run Leo on your machine.

Unfortunately, no. The good old days are gone. You won't even be able to run Leo on an external drive.

[SOLVED] Installing arch linux using dd from anrdoid phone's sd card

Hello everybody, I'm totally new and totally excited about arch linux.
I'm trying to create a bootable android phone for some hours now with no success.
The reason I'm trying to do that, is because all my usb sticks are all over the place at friends houses.
Since I'm not the patient type, I decided to do it with my Android Phone's SD card cause I noticed that I have the option to boot from it during startup.
Now, what seems to be the problem is this:
I did "dd bs=4M if=/path/to/archlinux.iso of=/dev/sdc" which seemed to do the job. When I rebooted tho, I didn't see my phone as a booting option.
That was obviously due to unrecognized file system format. How can I dd and keep the filesystem type? I believe that it's ntfs or FAT.
I also tried to install without overwriting the stick, which was a failure, it said it wouldn't find the .cfg files when i ran the commands in the wiki.
Can somebody help me with this?
Thanks in advance
Last edited by deus_deceit (2013-02-10 02:13:12)

Yes, my phone's card works without adding software as soon as I plug it in, the problem appears to be this: when i do "dd" on the SD card the filesystem type changes which causes my phone thinking that the SD card is empty since it doesn't recognize that format and not showing as a bootable device. As soon as I format it with my phone and reboot, it's there. So what I want to do is, create a bootable SD card that keeps the filesystem format that my phone recognizes. Is that possible?

broadcom had no output
lsmod |grep tg3 had no output, so If I dont have tg3, how to get it?
Solved:
"modprobe tg3" //it helps me get eth0
than
"dhcpcd eth0" /to ask for an ip
problem solved, now I just need to find out why tg3 doesnt autoload or how to autoload it.

Problems installing CS6 on new hardware

My purchase of CS6 was an upgrade from CS5. The device those were installed on is now dead and I am loading software on a new PC. When I attempt to enter the serial number I received upon purchasing the upgrade I get a message that there is no qualifiying product on the PC. There of course is not, becuase the device that CS5 was installed on is now dead. Do I have to figure out a way to install CS5 on this new device and then install CS6 on top of that? That seems like a crazy approach, but . . .

(and thank goodness I still had that old CS5 box around - sometimes the packrat streak comes in handy).
The boxes don't really matter that much since you can usually re-download the installation files online.
But keep all your serial numbers safe and handy at all times. I store mine in a text file locally and in a text file on Dropbox so that I've always got access to them. Serial numbers are the only thing you buy that are unique to you when you buy software. Other than yourself and Adobe (if you registered) no-one here can help you with missing serial numbers.
When you re-install CS6 using your upgrade serial number, you'll always need your CS5 serial number to verify it.

[SOLVED] Installing Arch on usb stick - login to emergency mode only

I have checked fstbe which is correct
block is in HOOKS line. Also added ext4 to MODULES
not but not least, i have used that usb for live distros and full installs. also portioned with gparted

thanks in advance

I understand that. but both UUIDs and devices (/dev/sdX) are there in fstab if I am correct. I will check that in evening. if so did i make a mistake in generating fstab.
I have generated fstab with
genfstab -p /mnt >> /mnt/etc/fstab (does this happens if i forget -p).
as I have done this multiple times, I might have done some thing wrong. I will edit that file manually and removed /dev/sdx entries from that
Honestly, you are not very good at sharing what is actually in your configs. So as Trilby said above, no one really knows what is in your fstab, since you have not actually shared that with this thread.
As far as I can tell, when I run "genfstab -p /" on my running machine, letting the output just be dumped to stdout, it doesn't give me UUIDs anywhere. And from your statement it seems you haven't even actually checked.
What I have done in the past is used labels. For example if you are using ext2, ext3, or ext4, you could assign a label using "e2label". So lets say you label your rootfs (/) "usb_root". Now instead of using the unreliable /dev/sdXY format, you can use LABEL=usb_root in your fstab, and in the bootloader you can use root=LABEL=usb_root (or root=/dev/disk/by-label/usb_root).
I would also like to mention that this quote sucks:
Archhotep wrote:No. UUIDs are there in the boot loader (I think) and grub was working fine and why the system is trying to boot at first place.
There are a number of people who are patiently trying to walk you through this issue (with quite a bit more hand holding that usually takes place around here), and you don't have the decency/appreciation to even take the time to confirm what you are actually using in the configs that everyone is telling you to check and/or change.
Sir,
I was a standard linux (i mean ubuntu etc) user until sometime back. I don't know exactly what should be there in /etc/fstab. I also do not know what information you might need to help me. If any one asked me the details about /etc/fstab etc might have provided. I have given what info what I felt was appropriate and enough. I do not have that machine with me when I was posting lat post, otherwise I might have posted. that laptop is at home. I already said thanks in my third post immediately after I solve the problem.
Sorry if I am wrong, and thatnk you once again for letting me about labels.
If I still have a question about /etc/fstab, i will post my fstab.
I don't know where to look to know that my boot loader is using uuid or dev. It would be great help.
