[request] Reiser4-patched GRUB

... Because I can't copy and paste under Minimax, LILO is screwing up like there's no tomorrow, and Damn Small Linux can't handle Reiser4. Also, I think it might be nicer to potential Reiser4/GRUB users to have the PKGBUILD and other necessary files for building it wrapped up in a nice little tarball.

XFS is great for big files but its small-file performance is *hideous* - pacman is incredibly slow on it, unless your hard drive is a SATA or fast SCSI drive or something. And I've got a 7200 RPM IDE drive with a mere 2 MB cache, so with XFS pacman takes five minutes or so to find the data on a package...
JFS, on the other hand, is almost as good as ReiserFS with small files and uses less of my CPU time, and seems overall the fastest FS on my machine. That said, different filesystems seem to perform very differently on different machines. If you've got a custom-made machine with a Seagate Barracuda in it, XFS might be the best for all I know.
With regards to Reiser4... from what I've seen it's not half as bad as the benchmarks say, very much like ReiserFS - stronger in some areas, but still very much similar. One similarity I could definitely do without, though, is the long mount times. They're not quite as long as with ReiserFS, but they increase with volume size, so for large RAID arrays they'd probably be a showstopper... And damned if I can find an excuse for the mount times either, since Reiser4 doesn't fsck on mount as ReiserFS does.

  • Loading reiser4 with grub hangs with stage 2

    I converted my hard drive to reiser4 and installed the patched graphical grub 0.96-4 from the forums with reiser4 support. After that grub installs with install-grub giving me:

    Then after I reboot the computer hangs giving me grub loading stage 2. How can I fix this problem.
    Thanks for the help,

    Well I created  a separate boot partition which I would suggest for anybody since grub with reiser4 patches doesn't seem to work so well. In addition it is easier to access the partition with almost any boot cd which is a bonus if you are like me and keep screwing up (I would also say it helps to copy install-grub to boot). It seems until grub 2 comes out either use lilo with reiser4 or create a separate boot if you plan on using grub.
    I guess I should also mention that the result could have been due to my particular setup. I didn't think it could be a problem any more especially with grub but my linux partition is towards the end of the drive on a logical partition. This could have something to do with the boot since grub with reiser4 skips stage 1.5 and goes to stage 2 which normal grub doesn't. Naturally I could be saying a lot of wrong things.

    why doesnt the damned mp5sums match???

    I tried reiser4 a month ago (i did also the complete rewrite is the Arch Wiki), but the latest grub does not work, so lilo is safer (remember to run lilo after kernel install).
    But for me reiser4 does not work. It does not "feel" faster than reiserFS, even worse..it's slower. When i edit a small file in vim (fstab or something), saving took ages. And also the sync command took quite long. The last one is not a real problem, but it shows reiser4 is caching a lot information in the memory, so when you system crashes, all the data is lost.
    At the end of the story my kernel failed to boot, so i had to install arch in the swap partition (with reiser4 kernel) to recover all the data from the /home and /root directory...so ... never reiser4 for me again.
    Of course, you can try reiser4, because it's nice to copy you entire system and install a new root file system..etc.etc.. you can learn a lot, but backup you data on an external disc to make sure it's really save.

  • DWM Hackers Unite! Share (or request) dwm patches.

    I'm not interested in getting yet another conversation about how people configuring their dwm or in having yet another thread full of screenshots. I'm starting this thread so people have a channel to share their dwm patches and hacks. Feel free to make requests or ask for help as well with your own endeavors as well.
    Here are mine:
    nbalanced
    Its a one or two line tweak of nmaster.c. Behaves saner, imho. It no longer rushes to fill the master area, behaving kinda like gaplessgrid until the nmaster "level" is reached. Probably not the best name, but meh. Both tile and bstack version are "corrected".
    nbalanced.c = http://github.com/simongmzlj/dwm/blob/m … balanced.c
    opacify
    A modified transparency patch. Requires xcompmgr to be running. I changed the transparency level to an int and added functions to allow runtime increasing/decreasing of transparency.
    opacify.c = http://github.com/simongmzlj/dwm/blob/master/opacity.c
    opacify.diff = http://github.com/simongmzlj/dwm/blob/m … acity.diff
    cycle
    This one is a product of collaboration between me and some other archers. Adds keybinding to add a way to move left and right through tags with the ability to pull the focused window with you. Like ctrl+alt or ctrl+alt+shift left and right in gnome.
    cycle.c = http://github.com/simongmzlj/dwm/blob/master/cycle.c
    tagmon
    The only patch completely of my doing. Changes how dwm manages multiple monitors. Unless explicitly dragged across, this patch causes dwm to reapply the rules set for the window on the new monitor.
    tagmon.diff = http://github.com/simongmzlj/dwm/blob/m … agmon.diff
    gaps
    This version of the patch, while still adding gaps on monocle - thats my preference - adds gaps around windows. Does not add a double width gap between adjacent windows.

    The issue is that the pertag patch moves the Monitor struct to just after the #include "config.h" line:
    typedef struct Monitor Monitor;
    typedef struct Client Client;
    struct Client {
    <snip>
    /* configuration, allows nested code to access above variables */
    #include "config.h"
    struct Monitor {
    char ltsymbol[16];
    float mfact;
    int num;
    int by; /* bar geometry */
    int mx, my, mw, mh; /* screen size */
    int wx, wy, ww, wh; /* window area */
    unsigned int seltags;
    unsigned int sellt;
    unsigned int tagset[2];
    Bool showbar;
    Bool topbar;
    Client *clients;
    Client *sel;
    Client *stack;
    Monitor *next;
    Window barwin;
    const Layout *lt[2];
    int curtag;
    int prevtag;
    const Layout *lts[LENGTH(tags) + 1];
    double mfacts[LENGTH(tags) + 1];
    Bool showbars[LENGTH(tags) + 1];
    It does this because the monitor structure now requires access the number of tags to function. This now precludes the ability of any code included in the config.h to use the Monitor struct as they see it as declared but undefined. My current solution is to split out a tags.h header with just the tags declared in them. Then this can be done like this
    #include "tags.h"
    struct Monitor {
    char ltsymbol[16];
    float mfact;
    int num;
    int by; /* bar geometry */
    int mx, my, mw, mh; /* screen size */
    int wx, wy, ww, wh; /* window area */
    unsigned int seltags;
    unsigned int sellt;
    unsigned int tagset[2];
    Bool showbar;
    Bool topbar;
    Client *clients;
    Client *sel;
    Client *stack;
    Monitor *next;
    Window barwin;
    const Layout *lt[2];
    int curtag;
    int prevtag;
    const Layout *lts[LENGTH(tags) + 1];
    double mfacts[LENGTH(tags) + 1];
    Bool showbars[LENGTH(tags) + 1];
    /* configuration, allows nested code to access above variables */
    #include "config.h"
    and it all works. I'll post a version later tonight that allocates the length at runtime to avoid this circular dependency of files.
    EDIT: Hows this? http://github.com/simongmzlj/dwm/blob/m … ertag.diff. I'm not sure if I should bother freeing those arrays seeing that they're constantly in use. Please test, if its okay I'll make pushing this one to the dwm website a priority as the on site one is broken.

  • Request: public patches

    Is it possible to make patches for certain bugs available on a certain webpage? Sometimes patches are available which we don't know about (because I don't have the time to read every forum posting out there). If a patch is available, and you know about it, you first have to e-mail an Oracle employee and have to wait for his/her response. I must admit, today I got a response in only *5 minutes* (thank you Steve)! But like I said most of the times we just don't know that a patch exists. And I don't know if for each fixed bug a patch is created, but every patch is welcome! Because without a patch we need to wait another x months for a new release which fixes the problem... :( And I understand patches might not be "stable" enough to be released in the public, but everything is better then a broken feature! And if you guys don't want to reponsible for any problems we have with the patch just put a notice on the webpage. Another great thing about making the patches available to the public is that they get tested better! This way you guys can be sure of a much more stable future release. :)
    So in short, making patches public is better for everyone! :)
    Regards,
    Peter

    We are presently in the testing stage of a small BC4J/JClient patch that will be made available on Metalink and/or OTN. It will include the following fixes (many of which directly resulted from customer problem reports here in the forum after we shipped 9.0.3 Production):
    [list=1]
    [*]2675805 DMLEXCEPTION IS THROWN WHEN AN AM IS CHECKED OUT AFTER THE DB IS BOUNCED
    The application module pool was throwing oracle.jbo.DMLException after the database had been restarted. Workaround is to set jbo.doConnection pooling to true.
    [*]2673596 NPE CREATING SESSION FACADE AM AND TESTING
    When running an EJB application module in the tester, you must first run the EJB session bean. Previously, if you did not do this a NullPointerException was thrown. This has been fixed so that an error dialog is displayed instead.
    [*]2651507 UPGRADING APP FROM 9.0.2 CAN PRODUCE EXTRA FORMAT & FORMATTER MESSAGE BUNDLES
    Migrating some applications from 9.0.2 to 9.0.3 produced extra and unnecessary message bundle files containing the formatter information. These files are no longer created.
    [*]2646690 CLASSCASTEXCEPTION USING PCOLL PASSIVATION SPILL TO DISK IN OC4J 9.0.3
    When using the JDBC 9.0.1.4 driver that ships with JDev 9.0.3 production, view row spillover was causing a ClassCastException when deployed in the 9.0.3 OC4J container due to a change in JDBC behavior for J2EE 1.3 compliance which the OC4J container sets by default (the driver itself doesn't, but OC4J forces the J2EE 1.3 compliant behavior to ON). This changes the return type of a database DATE field from Timestamp to Date, explaining the classcastexception in this case.
    [*]2633087 NAVIGATION LOST IN UIX JSP PAGE WHEN CLICKING HIDE/SHOW DETAIL
    In a simple UIX JSP application with Browse Form (with Hide/Show) option, navigation to the second page and clicking the Show/Hide would cause the record indicator to jump back to the first count.
    [*]2631283 INSERTED DETAIL EO IN COMP. ASSOC. REMOVED ON SETATTRIBUTE ON FK
    In a composition association, new details were not being added to the entity cache if they were in initialized state. This resulted in new detail rows being lost in the case where setAttribute was called on the foreign key attribute after a call to super.create()
    [*]2623957 MASTER/DETAIL EO GETTER RETURNS NULL IN COMP ASSOC WHEN EO NOT DIRTY
    For two entity objects joined by a composition association, calling the getMasterEO() accessor in the detail EntityImpl class was returning null - unless the master entity object had previously been changed.
    [*]2612483 VO WIZARD PROBLEM WITH PASSIVATE CHECKBOXES
    Previously passivation of transient attributes could be set only at the view object level, in the tuning page of the view object wizard. Now passivation can be enabled for individual transient attributes.
    [*]2606781 RANGE SIZE -1 IS NOT PASSIVATED
    This problem occurred when a view object's range size was changed and then the view object was passivated. The new range size was not being saved.
    [*]2606626 NEW ROWS NOT PASSIVATED WHEN EXECUTE QUERY CALLED AFTER INSERTING ROWS
    New view rows were not being passivated when the view object's max fetch size was set to 0.
    [*]2131423 CAN'T CREATE VIEWLINK WITH NON-SQL DESTINATION VIEWOBJECT
    This bug applied only to view objects with no SQL and only transient attributes: it was not possible to create a view link to these types of view objects.
    [*]2632152 ERROR ON FOCUS-OUT AFTER SELECTING FROM BOUND POPLIST
    In some JClient applications, selecting a value in a combo box and then switching focus out of the panel was causing an exception to be thrown (oracle.jbo.domain.DataCreationException).
    [*]2625613 JULABEL DRAWS DISABLED TEXT FOR NON-UPDATEABLE FIELD
    When a JULabel was bound to a view object attribute that was mapped to a non-updatable entity object usage, the JULabel was displayed as disabled. It's already not editable being a label, so disabling it was unintended, especially as this makes the display-only data harder to read for the user.

  • Unable modprobe ndiswrapper on 2.6.12.5 kernel

    Greetings everyone,
    As my username implies, long time slackware user. Got bored one day and installed Arch and am very impressed.
    One small problem.  I have using a 2.6.12.5 kernel with a custom .config file that has reiser4 support patched in. 
    I have the ndiswrapper 1.2.tar.gz source that I compile and install. Sets up the ndiswrapper.ko module under /lib/modules/2.6.12.5/misc.
    When I try to modprobe ndiswrapper I get the error:
    FATAL: error inserting ndiswrapper (/lib/modules/2.6.12.5/misc/ndiswrapper.ko): Invalid module format
    If I try ndiswrapper -i bcmwl5.inf I get errors pointing to line 17 of /usr/sbin/ndiswrapper which is "use strict"
    There are various other errors relating to /usr/perl/5.8.7, etc.
    I use the same kernel with the same .config file in slackware with no problems installing the ndiswrapper module or modprobing it. Works fine.
    I've been using Arch for a few months now, using 2.6.12.3 on. I know at one point I could modprobe ndiswrapper 1.2 with the previous kernels, so I don't know if there is something specific to 2.6.12.5 that is the problem.
    I would use the Arch ndiswrapper, but it installs to the module that 2.6.12-ARCH uses, not my vanilla kernel.
    Any suggestions??
    Thanks in advance for any assistance and a very well put together distro.
    Gary

    phrakture,
    Just finished recompiling 2.6.12.4 & 2.6.12.5 with and w/o the Arch logo. Am now able to load ndiswrapper module w/o any problems.
    Previously, and I apologize if my first post was a little comfusing, was that
    1: ndiswrapper.ko module would not load using modprobe without giving the invalid module format error.
    2: if i tried ndiswrapper -i bcmwl5.inf, thst's when I got the various perl errors which a reinstall did not fix.
    I think maybe my 2.6.12.5 kernel source may have been corrupt.
    When I installed Arch with reiser3.6, using the default ARCh 2.6 kernel, I then installed libaal-1.0.4-1 & reiser4progs-1.0.4.1, compiled a 2.6.12.5 kernel patched with the namesys  R4 patch. Copied everything to another partition. Booted into slackware setup identically. Formatted hda6 for reiser4 and copied the data back. Use 0.96 Reiser4 patched Grub to boot into either Slackware, Arch or Windows XP.
    So maybe the copy somehow corrupted something. Have never had a problem with this before, but live and learn.
    I would still like to learn how to use pkgbuild as I am really impressed with the responsiveness of Arch, not that Slackware is a slouch by any means, but I think the 686 optimization works better with my 2.4ghz P4.
    So any tips of pkgbuild would be most appreciated.

  • [base:system] Grub 0.97 with graphical patch

    Introduction
    This is a mod to the current grub package found on Arch base repository which adds support for a splash image (a background).
    While the patch is not officially supported by grub developers due to their policy of only bugfixes on their grub 0.9x series, it is used by many distributions like Fedora/Red Hat, SuSE, Gentoo, Mephis, and others. The patch I use is based on the one included by Fedora Core 3 grub srpm and rediffed to the latest vanilla grub version.
    After the installation is done, you will have a grub screen with the following background.
    Due to demand, the old splash image is optionally available for those who like it more.
    New: In addition to the standard package, a new alternate one is available for those who follow the Reiser4FShowto steps and want a grub package with both reiserfs4 and splashimage.
    Pre Install Notes
    1. Make a copy of your menu.lst for backup. It is not replaced by the installation steps below, unless you remove your current grub package.
    2.  We are dealing with your boot system info, so there is a small chance that things can be screw up.  But I haven't got any issue.
    3. If want to compile the package with the old splash image, or your custom splash image instead of the current one, you need to edit the PKGBUILD and change the md5sum assigned to splash.xpm.gz.
    4. The alternate package with reiser4 requires libaal, reiser4progs, and a reiser4 patched kernel.  Those are not on Arch repos, you can get them and read about all the process involved on  Reiser4FShowto,  or grab my updated PKGBUILDs: libaal, and reiser4progs
    Installation
    Note: Reiser package not updated since reiser patch need to be rediffed.
    Files changed for 0.97-1:  PKGBUILD, menu.lst
    1. Grab the following files and save them on a folder on your /var/abs/local path:
    a. PKGBUILD.  For reiser4 support, please get this PKGBUILD instead.
    b. menu.lst
    c. install-grub or copy it from /var/abs/base/grub/install-grub.
    d. grub-0.96-graphics.patch
    e. splash.xpm.gz, or if you prefer the previous one, then get splash.xpm.gz
    g. Only for reiser4 support grab the reiser4 patch from here
    2. Build the package
    # makepkg
    3. Install the package
    # pacman -U grub-0.97-1.pkg.tar.gz
    4. Edit your menu.lst and add the following splash instruction anywhere before your OS's menu entries.    splashimage /boot/grub/splash.xpm.gzFor example:
    # general configuration:
    timeout 5
    default 0
    splashimage /boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
    Important: Since grub 0.96-4 the splash path is /boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz and not /grub/splash.xpm.gz.  Previous users need to correct the path.
    5. Install the new grub boot images to your /boot dir.  Change x with your boot drive letter (ie. hda)
    # install-grub /dev/hdx (or sdx)
    6. ONLY if your system dual boot, AND your primary boot loader is NTLDR, remember to update your boot binary file (dd if=/dev/hdx of=/linux.bin bs=512 count=1) and copy the file to your NTFS boot partition. If you don't know what I´m talking, don't worry and just skip this step.:lol:
    Troubleshooting:
    Black display menu visible:  Stages probably not updated, try again install-grub (your partition where /boot belongs, or MBR).  To check if your stage2 supports splash image, use this checksplash.sh script.
    Black display, no menu, or corrupted display:  Check the splashimage instruction.    If you have a separate /boot partition try splashimage /grub/splash.xpm.gz.  Also check that you have a splash.xpm.gz in grub's dir.
    FAQ
    1. Can I use my custom image in grub?
    Yes, but it need to fullfill these requisites:  640x480 resolution, 14 color xpm picture gziped compressed. 
    2. Do I need to recompile or reinstall grub when changing a splash?
    Any splash can be used at any time, and no compilation is required after this package is installed, just replace splash.xpm.gz with another one, or edit menu.lst and change the path of splashimage instruction to match the desired picture to show.
    3. I currently use lilo, can I replace it with grub?
    Yes you can, but AFAIK the menu.lst get your drive partition info on Arch installation and not grub installation (and same applies to lilo.conf).  So you need to edit the menu.lst after package installation and add your boot device and kernel image configuration.  That kind of problem is beyond the scope of this guide.  If that's your case, first get working the the standard grub package on the current repository, and then update to this package.  For more info or sample grub configs check  ArchWiki - Grub or Gentoo Handbook - Configure the bootloader
    4. Where can I get more information about splash images on grub?
    GNU Grub Splashimage Howto General Grub bootsplash info and sample images.
    checksplash.sh Script that check if your stage2 support splashimage.
    5. I would like to test your package, but do not know how to build one?
    Simply, download the pre-compiled package from here. and install it using step 3, 4 and 5 of the Installation guide.
    Current Issues
    Note at the moment.
    TODO
    I will investigate the patch used by SuSE/Novell. It is a new modified one that allows for a greater resolution (not just 640x480) and more fancy stuff like menus.  But that will means a heavy modifed grub install, and thus completely sure it will not be accepted on Arch repos, and please don't ask when it will be done.
    Change Log
    2005-05-16 Updated to 0.97
    2005-03-02 Added alternate PKGBUILD with reiser4 support and related grub patch.
    2005-02-27 PKGBUILD 0.96-4, Fix splashimage path issue by adding a boot symlink on boot.
    2005-02-26 Fix some document steps.
    2005-02-04 Provide old splash image for those who like it more.
    2005-02-03  PKGBUILD 0.96-3, removed dependency on gzip. Splash is taken from $startdir instead of the uncompressed one on $statdir/src. Pre-compiled package provided. (FAQ question #4).
    2005-02-02  Updated to grub 0.96, rediffed patch, new splash based on tpowa's kde 3.4 wallpaper.
    2005-01-09  Add autoreconf entry to fix compilation of new files added by patch.  Update to FAQ.
    2005-01-06  First public release of PKGBUILD based on grub 0.95.
    Hope you enjoy it.

    I found the problem some people may have that the splash image didn't show with the steps I described. 
    The splash image path is different when /boot is on a separate partition, and when /boot is a folder of the / partition. As a stand alone partition, the /boot part of the path is not needed (directly points to it at mount maybe), and where /boot is on the same partition as /, then the user must specify /boot as part of the path for it to work. That's maybe the reason most distributions that use this splash patch include a symlink called boot on /boot directory itself (a kind of hack, or workaround).
    In short, the correct path of the splashimage commant to work is:
    A. /boot as separate partition: splashimage /grub/splash.xpm.gz
    B. /boot on same partition as root: splashimage /boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz
    I'm working on a new revision of the PKGBUILD that will fix this problem bringing uniformity to the path.  For the time being, this info is also added to the Install steps on the guide.

  • Patch 20133080:R12.PO.D compatible with 12.1.3

    Hi, we are encountering the Bug 20133080, that cancels the PR line if the PO line is cancelled.
    Our EBS is 12.1.3, but this patch 20133080:R12.PO.D stated that it was for 12.2.3.
    however upon checking the patch details README File (https://updates.oracle.com/Orion/Services/download?type=readme&aru=18420063):
    For 12.0.X / 12.1.X / pre-upgrade patches (using adpatch), you must shut down all Application tier services before performing the tasks in this section.
    so does this mean that it's also compatible with 12.1.3? it's kind of confusing.
    if it isn't compatible, is there an existing patch for 12.1.3?
    if there isn't a patch for 12.1.3, where can i request a patch?
    i logged an SR at MOSC asking the same questions but they didn't really give me an outright answer.
    thank you!

    Hi to all!
    Oracle was able to create a patch for 12.1.3. (patch number 20133080:R12.PO.B).
    hope this helps!

  • Failure to install SQL Server 2012 SP1 CU8/9 with a "Failed to retrieve data for this request." error

    Hi all,
    Has anyone come across SQL Server 2012 SP1 CU8/9 failing to install with a “Failed to retrieve data for this request.” error.
    The error is too generic for a useful search on web, for me at least anyway.
    Had no problems patching a whole bunch of other servers in the same environment.
    I’m no good at reading these error logs. For some reason the primary replica is referenced in the detailed log???
    The CU8/9 patch has been run by both Domain Admins and local Admin with no luck.
    We are trying to patch a secondary failover replica. (SharePoint 2013 is installed on this server.)
    This is from the summary log:

    Hello SQL Ranger,
    Thanks for posting the detailed log. I dont have exact solution for this but I can give you some hint what could be reason patch has failed below message points to fact that there is some issue with account which is used to install CU patch.Have alook at
    below log.It says that when patch was trying to get details from other node in cluster it was not able to.

    IMO I strongly feel it is issue with the account. Microsoft has also documented about this for SQL Server 2008 .Have a look at following links
    http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-US;2000257
    Please also assign privilege mentioned in below link

    Hope this helps

  • [solved]patch 2.6.29-3-ARCH confilict with aufs2

    After checked the aufs2 standalone code and 2.6.29-3-ARCH patch, I found 2.6.29-3-ARCH confilict with aufs2...
    2.6.29-3-ARCH changed the do_splice_from of fs/splice.c to vfs_splice_from...   while aufs2 standalone need do_splice_from ...
    And there is no such change on kernel official patch 2.6.29.1...
    So,
    If you need aufs2 support, abandon 2.6.29-3-ARCH patch is the best way...
    -------------090406----------------
    2.6.29.1-2-ARCH patch already contained aufs patch, use vfs_splice_from...
    With  kernel26-2.6.29.1-2.pkg.tar.gz, just need " modprobe aufs" to use aufs...

  • How to suppress GRUB boot messages?

    I'd just like to tidy up the text mode boot process a little bit. I added the "quiet" parameter to the kernel line in GRUB and it works nice. But GRUB outputs something like this with every boot:
    Booting 'Arch Linux'
    ... all the grub commands ...
    Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel.
    Is there an easy way to disable that output? And of course get it back visible when boot fails...
    edit: changed word "s p i l l s" -> "outputs", for some reason board censored it

    You've answered your own question.
    Grab the patch from ubuntu and build your own package.
    Look for the quiet.diff patch in..
    http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/m … u4.diff.gz
    I had the same itch to scratch and this was how i did it. I don't have the patched grub anymore though.

  • [SOLVED] Can't build Grub

    Hey all,
    I'm trying to patch Grub so that it doesn't show the "Welcome to GRUB" message during startup. I have done as is explained here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/grub- … 00176.html
    This is the diff file I came up with:
    --- main.c.orig 2012-06-25 22:33:41.000000000 +0200
    +++ src/grub-2.00/grub-core/kern/main.c 2012-08-24 20:59:37.129694404 +0200
    @@ -210,11 +210,6 @@
    /* First of all, initialize the machine. */
    grub_machine_init ();
    - /* Hello. */
    - grub_setcolorstate (GRUB_TERM_COLOR_HIGHLIGHT);
    - grub_printf ("Welcome to GRUB!\n\n");
    - grub_setcolorstate (GRUB_TERM_COLOR_STANDARD);
    /* Load pre-loaded modules and free the space. */
    grub_register_exported_symbols ();
    #ifdef GRUB_LINKER_HAVE_INIT
    But now, when I try building I get the following:

    I have also tried building without applying my patch, and I get the same output. What's going on here?

  • PSU update patch link

    Hi,
    While applying psu 11.1.0.7.2 on 11.1.0.7.1 i got this,
    Following patches have conflicts. Please contact Oracle Support and get the merged patch of the patches :
    8199107, 8833297, 7639602, 7111245, 7295298, 6972189
    Do i raise SR requesting these patches. Or is there any direct link to get the merged patch of these.
    Thanks,
    Taher

    Hi Taher
    I just discovered another Metalink note which indicates that some patch conflicts can be ignored;
    "Patch Set Updates - One-off Patch Conflict Resolution [ID 1061295.1]"
    If this all gets too confusing then the best is to log an SR with a list of conflicts and let Oracle advise you further.
    Regarding your new questions.
    Q1). How can i confirm, i have 11.1.0.7.1. if i check the opatch lsinventory for 11.1.0.7.1 patch, it is showing in the list.
    A1) It seems like this is a known problem. There is a discussion of this problem here;
    http://jhdba.wordpress.com/2010/01/27/identifying-applied-psu-patches/#more-520
    Apparently you can use this command (but not with 100% success);
    SELECT * FROM registry$history;
    You can also have a look at this note "How to confirm that a Critical Patch Update (CPU) has been installed in Linux / UNIX [ID 821263.1]".
    This note says "To implement the CPU installation into each database associated to the ORACLE_HOME, the Post Installation steps must be executed as documented in the CPU README". So extra steps are required during the application of the CPU to update the registry$history.
    Q2). In the document
    Preparation Guidelines for an E-Business Suite Release 12.1.1 Upgrade [ID 761570.1]
    Path E -> Section B, i have applied all the patches upto 8199107. All the patches afer this are for 11.1.0.7.0
    But as i am in 11.1.0.7.1, can i still apply the remaining patches which are
    8639653
    8940108
    9026927
    9066130
    9554727
    9743057
    A2). To be honest I am not sure what the answer to this question is. Maybe one of the other experts can answer this question.
    Does opatch indicate if these patches are currently missing?
    I would check with Oracle about this.
    Regards
    Frank
