Old versions of arch?

Right to the point, I'm looking for old versions of arch linux for download.
I have a pentium 3 system I'm trying to get it to load onto, and for whatever reason, the most recent version doesn't seem to like some of my hardware and I wondered if an older version might play nicer with it?

If you just want to use the machinery, and you have other Arch installations that work without the crappy sata drivers, you could just boot the old P3's over diskless nfs root.
I wondered about doing this, actually.  I just got back from lunch and upon stuffing my face with nachos, it occurred to me I might want to reel it in a bit and see if there's a solution other than fixing the driver manually.  Would I just go to kernel.org to report a bug or is there something arch-specific I should do?
I see what you mean about the diskless booting, but that doesn't fit with my long-term project, which requires local booting.

Not many, actually.  It's an adaptec 1210sa which is essentially a long-life software raid card, or jbod card.  My application doesn't really need raid, so I'm just using it for jbod purposes.   Other linux distros have been playing with it nicely, all with older kernels..I'm fairly certain.

  • Compiling old version of GCC and Binutils

    Hello everyone. I'm in search of a way to create bflt executables, and tried my best to follow this guide, but it requires compilation of a rather old version of gcc and binutils. This is what I'm getting after trying to run make.
    strerror.c:460:12: error: static declaration of ‘sys_nerr’ follows non-static declaration
    /usr/include/bits/sys_errlist.h:27:12: note: previous declaration of ‘sys_nerr’ was here

    It is gcc 2.7.2.3, and binutils 2.9. Is there anything I can do to make everything work nicely, or should I go the route of installing an older version of Linux in a virtual machine, then attempting this in that environment? I currently have gcc 4.6 installed. In case it matters, here is my uname -a
    Linux SMNG-N150 2.6.38-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon May 23 20:04:02 UTC 2011 i686 Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU N450 @ 1.66GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
    I appreciate any advice you guys can give me!

  • [SOLVED] pacman install an old version of chromium???

    i tried to install chromium and i do pacman -S chromium. and the output is:
    resolving dependencies...
    looking for inter-conflicts...
    Targets (1): chromium-5.0.375.99-1
    but if i look for arch chromium in google, it says there is chromium 7.0.517.44-1 in the extra repository which i have enabled, also i've tried pacman -Syu, just to see if it's some kind of update problem but it says there is nothing to update...
    so what is the problem? why is pacman installing old versions???

  • Updated .oam file appears as old version when placed in Muse

    I changed the background color of my Animate composition from black to white. I republished it and deleted the old version, but when I place the .oam file in my Muse site, it's the old version with a black background.
    I tried renaming the Animate project and saving both it and the Publish folder in a new place. Same result. I tried saving the Muse site with a new name and in a new place in case it was a cache problem. Same result.
    This is with the newest 2014 versions of both applications.

    Hi,
    I had the same problem. I reported it to Adobe but the problem (among many others) has still to be resolved. I wonder when the next release will be 'cos this one has been a disaster

  • Hi! I'm just having a little trouble when it comes to battery charging of my iPhone 5 with its new iOS 7! It doesn't indicates that the battery is fully charge unlike the old version of iOS! They said it should be pulsating but it's not

    Hi! I'm just having a little trouble when it comes to battery charging of my iPhone 5 with its new iOS 7! It doesn't indicates that the battery is fully charge unlike the old version of iOS! I already read some reviews and discussion about this. They said that the lightning bolt should pulsate when charging but it's not!

    Thanks for the replies. It took a while not hearing anything so thought I was alone. I have done many of the suggestions already. The key here is that it occurs on both phones with apps, and phones still packaged in a box.
    A Genius Bar supervisor also checked his Verizon data usage log and found the same 6 hour incremental use. Suprisingly, he did not express much intrigue over that. Maybe he did, but did not show it.
    I think the 6 hour incremental usage is the main issue here. I spoke with Verizon (again) and they confirmed that all they do is log exactly when the phone connected to the tower and used data. The time it records is when the usage started. I also found out that the time recorded is GMT.
    What is using data, unsolicited, every 6 hours?
    Why does it change?
    Why does it only happen on the iPhone 5 series and not the 4?
    Since no one from Apple seems to be chiming in on this, and I have not received the promised calls from Apple tech support that the Genius Bar staff said I was suppose to receive, it is starting to feel like something is being swept under the rug.
    I woke up the other day with another thought ... What application would use such large amounts of data? Well ... music, video, sound and pictures of course. Well ... what would someone set automatically that is of any use to them? hmmm ... video, pictures, sound. Is the iPhone 5 succeptible to snooping? Can an app be buried in the IOS that automatically turns on video and sound recording, and send it somewhere ... every 6 hours? Chilling. I noted that the smallest data usage is during the night when nothing is going on, then it peaks during the day. The Genius Bar tech and I looked at each other when I drew this sine wave graph on the log print outs during an appointment ...

  • I like Firefox browser when I use my Yahoo mail reverts to "oreiginal/old " version from latest version and this does not bhappen with Exploer or Chrome

    Using Firefox browser I can convert to the newest version of Yahoo mail and for this conversion it works satisfactorily. If I close Yahoo mail , either going to another site or closing the Browser, next time I open Yahoo mail it has reverted to old version (occasionally this does not happen but 80% of time it reverts). This does not happen with Explorer or Chrome. I have ensured updated Firefox. Tried Yahoo Ask for answer but no luck.I like Firefox Browser.

  • Can anyone tell me why I can't update my itunes on my p.c?  I get a message saying: the feature you are trying to use is on a net work resource that is unavailable.   Tried uploading from websit, get msg can't delete old version.

    I need some serious help!
    I have been trying to update my itunes to version 10.7 and my Quicktime to version 7.7.3!
    Having no luck!
    So I tried selecting repair software on all of the Apple applications and they seem to have worked.
    Then I selected look for upgrades on my itunes (Help) main screen
    It said their were two updates -   Itunes  10.7   and  Quicktime 7.7.3
    I selected the option to update and the .exe files were loaded to my  Windows 7 p.c.
    However after part of the Itune update completed a message came up on the screen
    saying   "The feature you are trying to use is on a net work resource that is unavailable.
    O.k.
    I then went to the itunes website and tried again.  This time it checked my system the process seemed to be working and all of a sudden I got a message saying my old itunes programs could not be removed and or deleted.  So I tried to delete my old version myself without success it won't let me.
    I've run out of options and am not completely fustrated.
    I have itunes on my desktop, my iphone4, my ipod and in my car. 
    Anyone have any clue how I can resolve this problem?

  • I did an upgrade from 4.0 to the new 6.0 about 5 months ago. After the upgrade installed it said reboot system to apply upgrade. Now it wont open and keeps telling me that the older version needs to shut down the computer and upgrade the old version.

    Look at original question. When I did the download to the new 6.0 it said everything was fine. Then when I tried to use the firefox again it said an older version needed to shut down my computer so that it could upgrade the old version. It wont let me do anything and all it says is shut down computer so old version can upgrade. It wont let me open the program or remove it or anything. PLease help me with this. I really like Firefox but this has been going on for 5 months now and I still dont get answers from you. How do I fix this???

    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try installing iTunes again. Does the install go through properly now?
    (If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

  • I am getting a default message when trying to open up itunes after downloading old version. why?

    I have downloaded an old version of itunes (9.2.1) because i cannot stand the new version 11. At the end of downloading it, i tried to open it up and a yellow triangle fault popped up and told me it could not be opened because a new version created it. I have tried to download 3 old versions this afternoon. I have an old version on my computer still and I love it. I am trying to put an old, very user friendly version on my girlfriend's computer, but am having severe issues in doing so. Please advise!

    See this post. To roll back to iTunes 9.2.1 you'll need a version of your database that was active back then. Alternatively you could delete the library file and let iTunes build a new one.

  • I downloaded the new Firefox for my Mac and it won't open. I deleted the old version. What am I doing wrong?

    I can't get firefox to open now that I erased the old version and tried to install the new version (6.0.2) on my Mac. I was hoping I could update it and have my bookmarks and everything intact, but when I drag the firefox symbol into my dock it won't do anything after downloading. I have put it in the trash to delete it and re-downloaded it, but nothing seems to help. On top of it, the fan on my computer goes on when I am trying to get firefox to work ????
