Linux 3.3.8-1-ARCH hangs on Amazon EC2?

Ok, I have been testing an arhc linux setup for a cloud webserver setup on AWS for the last month or so. Until now everything went without a hitch. Today I spin up a new instance to test the updates and I can't get it to come up after rebooting. I'm not very well versed in EC2's quirks and couldn't do much in form of debugging the AMI.
The hits on pacman -Syyu are:
Replace libusb with core/libusbx
which apparently doesn't affect the behavior
and the following packages are marked for update:
apache-2.2.22-4 bison-2.5.1-1 dovecot-2.1.7-4 fakeroot-1.18.4-1
filesystem-2012.6-2 glibc-2.15-11 icu-49.1.2-1
initscripts-2012.06.1-1 krb5-1.10.2-1 libmysqlclient-5.5.25-1
linux-3.3.8-1 linux-api-headers-3.3.8-1 mkinitcpio-0.9.2-1
mysql-5.5.25-1 mysql-clients-5.5.25-1 pinentry-0.8.1-4
psmisc-22.17-1 rsync-3.0.9-3 sqlite-3.7.13-1 systemd-tools-185-1
I am aware of the filesystem issue so the actual update command is as advised:
pacman -Syu --ignore filesystem && pacman -S filesystem --force
EDIT: I have done the Linux update separately and it is pretty clear that something crashes the vm in either linux-3.3.8-1 or linux-api-headers-3.3.8-1
Any news on that is welcome.

Arch hangs when plugging usb devices

hi.i'm using arch x86_64 with gnome 3.
when i plug an usb device to my laptop arch hangs and all of devices stop working ( mouse keyboard ...).
i already had this problem and i had fixed it by -Syu.but this time it does not fix.
i'm using kernel 2.6.39 (latest)
in gdm (before logging in to gnome 3 enviroment) plugging usb devices does not occure this problem.
this problem usually happen when i install reinstall or update a package with pacman.
please help to fix this problem!

ok.i discovered the problem.i was using asus-switcheroo for turning off my discrete graphic card (nvidia Optimus which dows not work on linux) and when i disabled asus-switcheroo this problem solved.
but what can i do about turning off discrete graphic?
in this situation i can't use that graphic card but it uses power.

Arch hangs/freezezs like Windows XP

i have installed Arch i686 on my AMD64 without any trouble. then i did "pacman -Syu" and read all the output/messages after installation and rebooted. no problems. sometimes Arch hangs/freezez like Windows . then it stops responding to any action i take, the only option is to manual reboot from Cabinet button :-(
e.g. i give it a command "ls" and hit Enter then it just hangs in there at command line. this i not specifically related to "ls", sometimes it hangs while i am trying to login. i login my name and Enter and it hangs/freezes like if waiting for some more input. one more thing i have noticed is, then i can go to another tty using "C-A-F2/F3/Fx" and when i try to login there, it hangs there too. it means whenever it hangs then all ttys get into the problem. i have already installed Arch from this this CD 2 times earlier without any problem.
i tried to install CRUX but i get a message, something like this, during installation. i posted it because i thought, it would help in solving the problem:
ata1.00: exception Emask 0x0 SAct 0x0 SErn 0x0 action 0x2 frozen

you switched the sata cable from port 1 to port 2 (of MOtherboard) ?
or you put a new sata cable on the same port?

Arch hangs during install

Newest version of arch hangs for me during install. I've tried the options

it starts to load, gets to the word "Ready." and then does nothing.
Ideas?

Fresh installed arch hanged with Skype in wmi during video call. The keyboard stopped reacting to any keys, including Ctrl+Alt+F1 (F2, F3, F4, F5, F6), Ctrl+Alt+Backspace.
The timer was actually working but updating in 3-5 seconds. While I had powerful laptop (i5 2.6GHz, 8Gb RAM). So,... I had to use power button to restart.
Any ideas how to avoid this in future?

Arch hangs on boot after system update

After I ran 'pacman -Syyu' yesterday, my Arch install won't boot anymore. Instead, it hangs after 'Reached target Graphical Interface' with a blinking underscore. It is the first time I've encountered such problems after running Arch for almost a year and frequently updating. Am I right to assume it might have something to do with the recent kernel/nvidia drivers update?

Keep checking archlinux site - information was posted here https://www.archlinux.org/news/nvidia-340xx-and-nvidia/

[SOLVED]Arch hangs on startup, unable to find root device Mac

For posterity, I'm editing the post with how I solved both issues.
Hi All,
I'm trying to dual boot Arch and Mac 10.4.11 on an old 32 bit MacbookPro1,1. I did the following:
1) Partitioned Drive with an EFI partition, Mac partition, root partition, home partition, and swap partition
2) Installed Mac to its respective partition
3) Installed rEFInd to the ESP
4) Confirmed the rEFInd was able to boot Mac
5) Installed Arch to the root partition and mounted the separate /home and swap partitions
6) Followed the beginners guide for the rest of the installation
7) Did NOT install a bootloader
- I am just using rEFInd to boot Arch; I installed Ubuntu in a similar fashion on my other (2013) MBP. I didn't create a mount point for /boot, did not install GRUB, and it works perfectly
8) Rebooted. Selected the Arch installation from the rEFInd menu, it launched, and shortly after I am presented with this message:
ERROR: device 'UUID=142bf...777' not found. Skipping fsck.
ERROR: Unable to find root device 'UUID=142bf...777'.
You are being dropped to a recovery shell
Type 'exit' to try and continue booting
sh: can't access tty: job control turned off
[rootfs /]#
I then booted to the live cd to try and do some noob detective work:
# mkdir /mnt/arch
# mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/arch
# cat /mnt/arch/etc/fstab
# cat /mnt/arch/etc/mkinitcpio.conf # my searching suggested the HOOKS might be the issue
HOOKS="base udev autodetect modconf block filestystems keyboard fsck"
Here is the output of /etc/fstab
I am including the outputs of
# lsblk
# fdisk -l /dev/sda
# blkid
as a photo.
EDIT:
I was able to use rEFInd's line editor to boot with the fallback image. Everything went well for the first five seconds and I got past the previously mentioned failure. However, it is now stuck at
[ OK ] Started Rebuild Hardware Database
I booted again, and it froze at:
[ OK ] Started udev Kernel Device Manager.
I did this a few more times and it froze at:
[ OK ] Reached Target Swap.
[ OK ] Reached Target Sound Card.
and
[ OK ] Started Flush Journal to Persistent Storage.
Why is it freezing at different points each time I boot (with fallback)?
EDIT 2 [HALF SOLVED]:
By switching the order of the hooks ( I still have no idea what they do) as per this link, I am now able to boot in normal (not fallback) mode. For the record, here is what I did:
# mkdir /mnt/arch
# mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/arch
# chroot /mnt/arch/ /bin/bash/
# nano /etc/mkinitcpio.conf # here I put block before autodetect in the hooks line (Why isn't this the default if it prevents the system from booting?)
# mount -t proc proc /proc
# mount -t sysfs sys /sys
# mount -t devtmpfs udev /dev
# mkinitcpio -p linux
I then rebooted and it started up, except now it is freezing at various points in the startup sequence like the fallback image did above. What could be causing this issue?
EDIT 3 [SOLVED]
I don't know why this worked, but after following this advice I am now able to boot into login. Steps:
1) Select Arch in the rEFInd menu and press F2
2) Press F2 again to edit the boot parameters
3) Scan to the end of the line and add
nomodeset
after the linux image.

Yes, the UUID displayed in the error message upon bootup is the same as the UUID for /dev/sda3 as found when running blkid which is the same as the UUID for the root partition in /etc/fstab.

Nice introduction to Linux with a focus on Arch at Engadget

Good general article about Linux with a brief look at its history.
The hook is "Getting your hands dirty with Linux" so the distro focus is on Slackware and Arch.

Arch hangs/freezes completely during startup/systemd

I just installed Arch onto my computer a few days ago. It's dual booting with win10 technical preview using grub as the bootloader. It's legacy BIOS and MBR partitioning. The only thing I did apart from exactly following the instructions in the beginners guide was I didn't wipe the disk since I wanted to keep Windows, I only made one partition (root), and no home partition, I created and enabled a 10GB swap partition, and I formatted my root partition with btrfs instead of ext4. I can boot into Windows just fine by selecting the Windows loader from GRUB, but when I try to boot Arch it always freezes at some point during the startup, before I can see the login prompt, while it's still saying things like "[ ok ] reached target something". What I mean by "freeze" is that nothing more appears on the screen, and the cursor stops flashing. I can't do anything at all. The weird thing is, it doesn't always freeze at one specific place. Sometimes it stops after saying "Activating swap", sometimes it gets past there and freezes after saying "[ ok ] Reached target Sound Card". I've tried booting it probably nearly 10 times now, it never manages to make it all the way to the login screen. I can boot from the live usb fine, and I didn't get any strange errors during installation. I've installed arch linux before on a different machine, and it worked right off the bat.
Can anyone give me any advice as to what I should try to do to fix this or what I should do to narrow down the possible causes and troubleshoot further?
Thank you in advance!

I've heard a little about some major problems with btrfs and recent kernels. I don't have links for this at my fingertips, nor can I elaborate - I've never used nor know anyting about btrfs, so I've not really payed close attention to these issues, but I've seen them around the forums. But for these same reasons, take this with a very large grain of salt: I could be completely wrong. But it should be easy to test if you booted into the live medium, installed an LTS kernel, and tried booting that.

Compiling linux for embedded system using Arch.

Hi. I build the vanilla kernel for an embedded system using special buildsystem. This buildsystem calls
make INSTALL_MOD_PATH=embedded_fs_path modules_install
The kernel's Makefile installs the modules to embedded_fs_path/lib/modules/$(KERNELRELEASE) and calls /sbin/depmod -b embedded_fs_path $(KERNELRELEASE).
This operation fails under Archlinux because /sbin/depmod is a part of kmod and it expects that modules are placed to /usr/lib/ instead of /lib, so it tryes to make dependencies in embedded_fs_path/usr/lib/modules/$(KERNELRELEASE) instead of embedded_fs_path/lib/modules/$(KERNELRELEASE).
What is correct solution for this issue? I can pass DEPMOD variable to kernel's Makefile to use something else instead of /sbin/depmod, but i don't know value of this variable should be.
Is there any command line options for kmod to force using /lib instead of /usr/lib? As I've seen in kmod sources, there aren't.
Is there any package in repositiries or AUR or somewhere else which provides an application that behaves the same way as old depmod with /lib/ modules location?
Thanks.

centos is probably worse. They're still on 2.6.18 as far as i can tell.
I wanted to avoid chroot/virtual machine (ran one of those for a while). The reason is that my current development build is the same as what is delivered. I don't want to lose that....having to deal with different compilers, libraries, etc can be a pain.
I'll also look into whether or not I can install a "glibc-compat" type package that could alleviate the loader.
Here's the telling part:
the new exectuble:
$ file <executable>
<executable>: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, AMD x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.6.27, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.27
the old executable:
$ file <executable>
<executable>: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.8
Okay....issue seems to be in the glibc PKGBUILD.
it has the line:
--enable-kernel=2.6.27 \
passed to glibc configuration.
Causes big time problems for creating compatible packages.

[Solved] Arch hangs at boot at random points

Hello. First of all, sorry for the undescriptive title, but one of the main reasons that I came here is because of I don't know what's causing the hanging. The problem started one day to another, the pc worked well and one day I turned it on and it hanged.
At first I thought it was fsck, but doing a little boot debugging (appended "debug" to the kernel parameters) I could notice that the problem comes from somewhere else. The problem is that every time that I try again, the boot stops at a different point, so I cannot know which is exactly the problem.
I post the last 6 lines of 3 different boots (written by hand, so might have typos):
[ OK ] Started Login Service.

And it never gets any further than that. The farthest it gets is "[ OK ] Started Network Time Service". But I don't know even how to start fixing this.
Thank you very much.
If you need more logs ask for it.

Try disabling as much as you can, disable graphical.target and gdm, and enable multi-user.target and work from there to see what's causing the problem.
Slowly re-enable services again in multi-user mode, then if all goes well, disable multi-user.target and enable graphical again, and perhaps try lightdm as a display manager, just to try rule out gdm if you get to this stage.

Amazon EC2 Installation using Oracle AMI - Installation Hangs

Hello,
I've been trying to install an Oracle AMI on EC2 (using the Oracle provided AMIs). However, every time I go through and use the defaults and the installation gets stuck at 87%. It does not finish. This has happened with AMIs for multiple releases of Enterprise Linux and Oracle Database.
I was able to install and access the latest Oracle BPM AMI (http://aws.amazon.com/amis/Oracle/4052) in order to test it, but no such luck with a DB AMI (such as http://aws.amazon.com/amis/Oracle/3647).
Does anyone know what could be happening?
Thanks for any pointers!

Oracle 10gXE is free, Oracle does not charge you any fees.
To start with Amazon, you can have a free EC2 Micro instance which is suitable for Oracle 10gXE. Amazon offers this instance for new customer as free and i think it's for one year.
You safe if you use 10gXE and AWS Micro instance.

[SOLVED] Borked my Arch! Hanging at boot...

Hi, I've been using Arch on my netbook for the last couple of months with great results until just now....
Yesterday everything was going great guns, then I booted a different distro (remixOS) from a persistant usb install. After a few hours I rebooted Arch but it hung shortly after entering init runlevel 3, whilst trying to start the laptop-mode daemon. I read about a laptop-mode related bug that prevented users from booting and, believing that laptop-mode was the culprit, booted into a Linux Mint live session and edited my rc.conf daemons array.
However this has not solved the problem, my machine now just hangs at "Starting crond daemon" with a [BUSY] message on the right hand side of the screen and the cursor frozen.
What should I do? I use this machine for school and I don't want to reinstall, I'd prefer to learn about the issue and fix the problem myself.
Sorry if this is the wrong place for this thread, I've searched extensively but haven't found anything that matches my problem and other threads about chrooting and init runlevels are too loaded with jargon for me to comprehend at this point.
Thanks for reading about my problems.
Toby.

I have tried to pacman -Syu but i have a dependancy cycle with lib32-gcc-libs and gcc-libs-multilib but that's most likely covered in another thread.
Well, my mind's a bit boggled. Sounds like it might've been from an update or simple oversight. I've had issues with mkinitcpio not generating the correct initrd--once from my own mistake (not updating mkinitcpio.conf correctly) and once from it running but apparently not including LVM even though I instructed it to. (I suspect the latter might've also been from an oversight on my part.)
Here's a thread that might help with the lib32-gcc-libs/gcc-libs-multilib issue.

Assuming your UUIDs are correct, your fstab looks fine. The only change that you might need is to set the pass field (last number) for /boot and /home to 2 (see fstab(5)), but that wouldn't cause your problems.
Unless the kernel is screaming at you, you may occasionally see some things on boot that happen to be harmless. No biggy. :)

And a link to my /boot/grub/menu.lst which was indeed installed from arch.
I know that there is a quiet flag in my kernel options because I noticed it when I was experimenting with switching the runlevels via grub but I'm not certain where to find my kernel line, nor what constitutes "unsusual options". I'm pretty sure I didn't change anything for ACPI support but maybe some laptop-mode-tools stuff did someting, I can't be sure...
The boot looks fine, especially since mkinitcpio fixed your problem. "Unusual options" in this case would be things like turning off various kernel features or passing in options to change behavior--you'd know them if you saw them. You don't have them, so it's nothing to worry about.
Good to know that solved your problem. Don't forget to mark your thread [solved] too!

[solved] Systemd hangs sometimes on boot with linux-ck

Hi i have linux-ck kernel installes and a Systemd-only init.
Sometimes it hangs on boot and then, instead of starting X / LXDM, drops to a commandline login prompt. It does not happen on every boot and never happend with arch stock kernel so far. I cant't login to search in systemd journal for errors because the keyboard does not work corret, e.g. if I press "o" it writes a "6"
here a shot from last time it happend. In the shot the last messages from Systemd are visible, but sometimes the screen is cleard before the login prompt appears.
