Lilo: kernel setup stack overlaps LILO second stage

After a pacman -Syu, I am unable to boot.
Unfortunately I use lilo. I *think* lilo was upgraded, and for some reason 'lilo' wasn't run after an upgrade. If its not doing this automatically it may be something to check up on to avoid many future headaches.
Anyways, I just assume that is what happened because I really have no idea how this came about.
At lilo (v22.7.3) I select Arch (I dual boot with WinXP which loads perfectly fine) and I get the following error:
boot:
Loading archEBDA is big; kernel setup stack overlaps LILO second stage
I have tried using knoppix to go in and chroot and run 'lilo' but I get the error:
Fatal: raid_setup: stat("/dev/sda")
I also tried chrooting and removing lilo, installing grub. But that didn't work out too well either (mainly due to my ignorance of grub).
ANY solution would be awesome. All I want to do is boot up. I never really shut this machine off, so as long as i'm booted up I really don't care how its done.
random info: my root partition is on /dev/sda3, and my /usr partition is on /dev/sda4.
I am very unknowledgable about bootloaders in general, both lilo and grub, but i have more experience with lilo. Any pointers would be helpful. Please help! Thanks in advance.

I'm experiencing the same problem, but I'm new and I'm not entirely sure how to carry out those instructions. Can anyone help?
Thanks
EDIT: solved, reinstalled and after updating lilo I had to run it before rebooting.

  • Items not moved to Second Stage Recycle Bin

    Hello,
    Trying to do some digging into SharePoint 2010 Recycle Bin.
    I've noticed that although items, when deleted, are being moved to the First Stage Recycle Bin, if they are deleted from that location they do not seem to be moved into the Second Stage Recycle Bin.
    I think I am correct in saying that in order for items to be purged from any recycle bins or moved from First Stage to Second Stage the Recycle Bin Timer Job needs to run for that particular Site Collection.
    Although I have manually run this job, and it returns a success message, the items still don't appear in the 2nd Stage Recycle Bin.
    What I have noticed though is when I run this Timer Job it only reports as running on the Application Server and then twice on one of the Web Servers. The other Web Server isn't mentioned in the Time Job History at all. I'm not sure whether this is the key
    to this issue but would appreciate any advice...........

    Solved it! And the answer is pretty stupid.
    Basically when you browse to the Second Stage Recycle Bin you go to a URL ending in
    /_layouts/AdminRecycleBin.aspx
    This is actually the "roll up" view of the First Stage Recycle Bin. If you have the left hand navigation enabled it's listed as "End user Recycle Bin items"
    If you change the URL to:
    /_layouts/AdminRecycleBin.aspx?View=2
    Then this is the Second Stage Recycle bin. Again if you have the left hand navigation enabled it's listed as "Deleted from end user Recycle Bin"
    Because the template I had applied to this site has removed the left hand navigation I didn't realise which bin I was really looking at. Once I had amended the URL all the items were there in the Second Stage Bin.
    I'm still a little confused about the Recycle Bin Timer Job as this seems to run on different servers in the farm depending on which Web Application's Time Job you are running.
    Hope all my testing helps someone!

  • How to display a confirmation message to the second stage approver.

    Hi,
    I am working on an application which involves 2 stages of serial approvals. After the first stage approval, the request is forwarded to the second stage. When the second stage approver approves the request, the workflow proceeds with the user creation. I would like to let the second stage approver know about the status of user creation after he clicks the approve button. It can be just a simple message saying that the user creation has been successful or unsuccessful.
    My question is how is it possible to show this confirmation message to the second stage approver after the user creation process?
    I tried to use manual action. But it is not working(probably because the owner of the workflow is different from the second stage approver). Is there any other way to implement this?
    thanks,
    manoj.

    It is really simple to implement, you have to just write another manual action to second supervisor after user creation and pass the result to manual action.
    Hoping you are tried to create simple user with out assigning so many resources otherwise it will take time to load.
    Please let me know if you face any issue to implement.

    Dealer Purchase stage 1 and 2 
    Dealer case mapping in SAP
    If you are using taxinn then in Fv11 you have to maintain excise conditions( BED,ECESS and HECESS) =zero instead of 16 , 2 and 1% and setoff conditions =100% and VAT conditions as per actual percentage for example 4% or 12%
    In purchase order
    Say Your Price is 100
    BED=0
    ECESS=0
    HECESS=0
    VAT 4%
    Total will be 104
    Now at the time of GR you will come to know the actual % is different .and total base value is 80/-
    Put the excise base as mentioned in excise gate pass(80/-e.g)
    Do not forget to tick MRP indicator on miscellaneous tab
    Save your part 1 and post the GR
    also post part 2
    Then at the time of MIRO you will have base value as 100 ( original from PO) so change this value as per excise gate pass that is 80/-
    and press calculate tax. You will get the desired result.
    In addition:
    First Stage dealer is the dealer who purchases from Manufacturer and sell it to you, where as Second Stage Dealer is the person / firm who purchase from First Stage Dealer & sell it to you.

    Hi Alok
    In our company second stage dealer ED should be taken in following way.

  • Purchase Process from a Second Stage Dealer with Excise Inclusive

    Hi Everybody ...
    I am facing a scenario in two of our projects where the vendor happens to be a second stage dealer. This means that he has actually purchased the raw material from the manufacturer, and paid the excise to manufacturer.
    Now this vendor gives us an invoice where he has included excise duty in the invoice amount. This invoice amount also includes his own commission. The excise duty remains same as was paid to the manufacturer.
    The invoice also specifies VAT applicable on:  'base amount' + 'excise' + 'dealer's commission/profit'
    Now the tricky part is how to separate the excise amount from this? The profit our dealer is charging is separate and non-excisable. Though VAT will be applicable.
    Example:
    Our vendor (a stage 2 dealer) sends us an invoice of Rs. 1180/-  with excise at 8% (say, excluding cess for the time being).
    If excise amount here is Rs. 80/-.
    This gives us a Base amount = Rs. 1000/-
    Dealer's commission/profit = Rs. 100/-
    VAT = 4% of Rs. (801000100 (non-excisable))
    I have not been able to map this into SAP B1 2007B.
    Please suggest if there is a way this scenario can be mapped onto SAP B1 or if it will require some level of customization.
    I need to accomplish this in the next 2 days.
    Thanks for everything
    TC,
    Yatri

    With reference to the query., pls note that you can put the 1180 in the unit price and assessable value or the per unit excise amount*qty in the Assessable value field. In the PO or GRN where you are putting the data be sure to have the Assessable Value and Tax Amount (LC) fields on. So you can put the assessable value and go to the tax amount table and put all the data in the tables and update it.

  • How do I deal with a cascaded system, First Stage SCXI-1520'​s and Second Stage SCXI-1143'​s?

    I am aware of the following link:
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/653505DF63A​D04E686256DD7005D42F6
    I'm kind of stuck here.  The system is already in place.  1520's in first stage and 1143's in second.  I am supposed to configure the 1520's and scan the 1143's.
    What problems do you see with this?
    How do I go about doing an end to end calibration?
    Should I just rip out the 1143's and hope nobody notices?

    Hello Frank,
    Let's start from the beginning.  I understand that you have some SCXI-1520s and 1143s that you are using in your measurement system. What type of sensors are you acquiring data from? It seems that you intend to use the 1143s to filter the data between the 1520s and the software.  Is this correct? Another question that I have is what do you mean by "end to end calibration?" The more specific that you are about the application you are developing, the easier it will be for others to help you with any questions that you might have.
    Looking at the knowledge base article that you linked in your original post, it seems that the point was to filter the data from the SCXI-1520 in software, using the LabVIEW Filter Express VI. Would this be a viable option for you? If so, then you could just rip out the 1143s.

  • How to setup stack files on desktop

    I just got my first macpro and accidently blew away my stacked files that were located on bottom rgt corner of screen. could not find in trash so do not know where it went ... just know that while dragging this stack across screen and released it I saw a cloud icon then it was gone. anyone know how i can get it back or how to setup a stack again...should be easy?

    Items in the Dock are just aliases (shortcuts) to the actual files/folders somewhere on the computer. I can't remember exactly what is on the right side by default, but probably the Downloads folder or the Documents folder.
    If you want a stack in the Dock, just drag a folder from the Finder to the Dock and the OS will make an alias to the folder in the Dock. When you drag off the dock, you are deleting the alias to the item. if you control-click or click on hold on the folder in the Dock, you can choose the display options that you want it to have.
    Stacks only exist in the Dock. You can't move them to the Desktop.
    If you want an alias to a particular folder on your Desktop, cmdoptdrag the folder to the desktop. While you are dragging you will see the alias badge (a swooped arrow) indicating you will create an alias, not move the file/folder. Keeping things on the desktop takes up lots more resources than other folders, so it is not a good idea to put a lot of items there.
