Rescue from CD doesn't work for XFS?

Has anyone else tried booting from the install CD to into Arch with an XFS root?
For, me, it wouldn't work.  I needed to get back in after having the MBR wiped over by windows.  I did vmlinuz root=/dev/sdb2 but got a kernel panic about unknown block option.  I tried to explicitly state the initrd.img file in /dev/sdb1 but that didn't work.
Next I tried booting into the install system and from their chrooting into my own.  However, I couldn't mount any XFS drives.  It seems only reiser and ext2/3 were able to be read by the install environment.
Has anyone else had this?
Also, I think the message that comes up at the boot prompt is erroneous.  It says to type 'arch root=/dev/hdXY' to access your local install.  Typing this actually brings me into the install environment.  You have to type in "vmlinuz root=/dev/hdXY" to try and boot your installed system

I have used Arch Cd to chroot into broken install to fix broken bootloader no problem
as for XFS well I do not use it so cannot say if it works with it or not
search forums for broken boot / mbr or look at

  • 1.3.5 update - lookup map from Contacts doesn't work for Sprint Nav or Google maps

    Is anyone able to tap on a contact's address in order to launch Sprint Navigation? Or even Google Maps?  In my case, Google maps alway navigates to *my* address, not the contact's address I tapped on.
    Worse, my Pre hangs on the Sprint Nav splash screen when choosing that option -- similar to what others are noticing. I copied this from another forum, as it describes my problem as well:
    I updated Default Applications to launch Sprint Navigation for addresses. It certainly launches from an open Contact, but locks up on the splash screen. It never displays a map (nor anything else), and the menu doesn't function. Completely unresponsive. If I launch the app stand-alone, it works fine, so Sprint Navigation doesn't seem to be broken. It just doesn't work launching from a contact address.
    I've switched the default app back and forth between Google Maps and Sprint Navigation, and did a couple restarts to no avail.
    Regards,
    Paul
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    Thanks for the feedback and link to confirm this issue.  I confirmed what the other fellow wrote on that thread:
    if you already have Sprint Nav open, then click the address is goes fine.
     I also "fixed" the issue in which Google maps loaded but always went to *my* location. I fixed this by exorcising the unofficial Google Latitude version of Maps from my Pre.I picked up this version by following a hyperlink to the beta Latitude a number of days ago, and ever since it had replaced the regular G Maps. I was able to clear Latitude off my device by pointing the browser to maps.google.com to reload the original flavor.After that, I am able to properly launch G Maps from a contact's address field.  Whew!

  • Drag and Drop Apps to and from Dock, doesn't work for one account?

    Hi there,
    I have 2 accounts on my Macbook, one of them is my main account which is admin and nothing is wrong with it. The second account though is also admin but I cannot drag and drop applications to and from the dock. I can open the program, hold left click down till it pops up with options and in which you can untick Keep in Dock. Which would be fine but as soon as the computer restarts or I log out then in again, the application reappears. Any help or ideas would be much appreciated.
    Note that I have deleted both plist files from library/preferences and I have also enabled parental controls and ticked the allow users to modify the dock option. I also tried downloading Onyx and setting it up through there but it was a no go. Anyway, if anyone has any idea then that would be awesome.
    Cheers

    Ok, you can drag applications from your Applications and Utilities Folders to make a "alias" (aka shortcut) in the Dock, but if you drag the icon off and drop it, it "poof's" away as your deleting the alias. The program itself isn't in the Dock at all at any time.

    Right, when you run a program from where ever, it places a alias icon in the Dock, which you then right click and choose to keep the alias in the Dock which survives reboots and logouts/in as normal.
    If you right click and choose "open at log-in" the program will automatically run when you restart or log back into the account.

    I don't see any problem, other than your not knowing the icons in the Dock are aliases.
    You should set the same user controls and preferences on the second admin as the first and your problems should disappear.
    OnyX is a great program, I recommend it highly, but I don't see it fixing your problem in this case. Unless there is something your not being clear on.

    Choosing Page > Page Properties > Menu Options > Exclude page from menus doesn't work for me in the current release. Anybody else having this problem?

    Humm?
    Just tested both your process and again by going to Plan View > rt-click on page >  Menu Options and both instantly remove the page.
    Have you tried just making  simple/quick test site with 2-3 pages and trying? 
    Maybe somthing in your site and not in Muse that's causing the issue.

    Hi,
    I have two monitor setup (laptop + main monitor) and I would love to use "Only show tasks from the current desktop" option in KDE Task Manager but for some strange reason it doesn't work for me. Well, it works but only partially - for restored/unmaximized windows. When I maximize one it appears on the Taskbar on both screens. Is this normal? May it be due to the fact that I've placed Taskbar on top of the screens?

  • The wifi at my school isn't very good. And I can't send iMessages through it. It works for some apps like score center and my radar app, but doesn't work for other apps like clash of clans and iMessage. How can I get it to work on that  wifi network

    The wifi at my school isn't very good. And I can't send iMessages through it. It works for some apps like score center and my radar app, but doesn't work for other apps like clash of clans and iMessage. How can I get it to work on my school wifi. I have an iPhone 4S on AT&T and iOS 7.04

    In a roaming network, your "main" router is the device that would require port mapping/forwarding to be configured in order to access the IP camera from the Internet. This router is also the one that would be provide the private IP address for the camera which you will want to be a static one.
    So as you described your network, the IP cameras should be getting an IP address or you assigned it a static one and this is the address that you would enter in the Private IP address (or equivalent depending on the router used) field when setting up port mapping.
    If you are not able to access this camera from the local network, then this should be troubleshot first.

  • Central Autoreaction Method doesn't work for NW 7.10 in SolMan 7.01

    Hello!
    The central autoreaction method doesn't work for the satellite system
    NW 7.10. For systems with kernel releases 4.6D, 640, 700 this method
    works fine and e-mail alerts are coming.
    The configuration steps I've checked:
    1. Configured SCOT. The mail_send job executes every 5 minutes.
    2. Background dispatching job is released: SAP_CCMS_MONI_BATCH_DP (In
    central CEN/000/DDIC and satellite system SAT/000/DDIC)
    3. Central dispatching job is released: SAP_CCMS_CENSYS_DISPATCHER
    (Only in central system CEN/000/DDIC)
    4. The sapccm4x-agent registered as web service within CEN using
    Create Remote Monitoring for NW 7.10:
    Connection test to SAPCCM4X.<satellite_host>.00 was performed successfully
    5. Created a new autoreaction method by copying method
    CCMS_OnAlert_Email_V2 to the own Z_CCMS_Email_Alert_CEN:
    Function Module - SALO_EMAIL_IN_CASE_OF_ALERT_V2
    Execute Method on Any Server and Only in Central System, triggered by
    CCMS agents
    SENDER (EMAIL_USER) exists in CEN/000 , RECEPIENT - <distr list
    SAP_BASIS in CEN/000>, RECIPIENT-TYPEID - C
    6. Got MTE Classes from NW 7.10 satellite system and assigned this method
    Z_CCMS_Email_Alert_CEN to an MTE-class CCMS_ORAucPSAPSR3 for NW 7.10
    satellite system. The alert is red right now.
    7. The mail_send job doesn't send anything, in SCOT there are no
    sending orders.
    8. Autoreaction status on this alert in CEN in RZ20 - Sent to CEN.
    CEN_CHECKED.
    9. The alert status in RZ20 in CEN - ACTION_REQUIRED. If I execute it
    in manual the alert status changes to ACTIVE, but no email and no
    messages in sending orders in SCOT.
    Please help me to solve this issue.
    Thank you!

    Hi,
    Since you are using RECIPIENT-TYPEID =C i.e. General distribution list, pls ensure to have shared type of list created in SBWP.
    Also pls verify your SCOT configutaion , if apropriate address area i.e. *@abc.com
    Also one point to note that even if you trigger auto reaction method manually via RZ20 , pls check if alert is listed in SOST.
    if yes , that means there is problem in either SCOT configuration or distribution list.
    If alert is not appearing in SOST , that means you need to check auto reaction method parameters;
    Z_CCMS_OnAlert_Email_V2 , here check release section if Auto reaction execution method is checked.

  • Oracle client 9i doesn't work for windows ordinary user

    Hello All,
    I've installed oracle 9i client on windows xp. Client software works for user belonging to windows administrators group. it doesn't works for ordinary users not belonging to administrators group. Particularly when i run sqlplus from command line i get following error :
    Incorrect environment variable PLUS_DFLT
    Program execution error.
    i also need access to Oracle ODBC driver.
    When i try to configure ODBC source (created by user with administrator privileges) by common user i get following errors :
    The setup routines for Oracle for Oracle in OraHome9i ODBC driver couldn't be loaded due to system error code 5
    Could not load the setup or translator library
    Very appreciate for any help.
    Regards Arkadiusz Masny

    It sounds like the users on the machine do not have access to the Oracle home directory. Check the permissions of the folder by right properties, select the user and check that they have read and then select advanced. Tick the "replace permission entries....." box and apply. This will re apply all user rights in all folders and subfolders. Try again.

    Hi All
    Rif t.code S_ALR_87012177. This report requires, for working, the flag in th filed "Payment history record" in the tab "payment transactions" of customers master data.
    I've adjourned the master data of the customers putting in the field "Payment history record". But the report doesn't work for histories. Is there a program which make the report working for histories too?

    Hi Suresh,
    I have one issue with same report
    when i seen the report there are two  arrears days are showing to corresponding to the months Feb
    as per the Report S_ALR_87012177 help  following below
    Arrears in days
    The average days in arrears are determined as follows: Every
    incoming payment in the periods concerned is multiplied by its days
    in arrears. These amounts are added together and then divided by the
    total amount from all the incoming payments. This process ensures
      that the days in arrears are weighted by the payment amount
    but for February month there are 9 payments on one customer  and when checked in FBL5N report
    there are no Arrears days on each payment document but in the report "customer history ' there showing  2 days as arrears under " payments with Cash discount .Arrears"
    User has doubt how this report is working to show the Arrears days
    Are there any Formula  , can you please advise me
    if you  knows well   about this
    Regards

  • The enclosure in RSS feed doesn't work for Itune

    I subscribed to my podcast rss feed to ITune, which was valid and had been tested successfully with other aggregator such as Ipodder, however, it doesn't work for ITune. When I hit "get" button next to my podcast name, I always get "!" sign in front of the name, and when I clicked it, I got error message "There was a problem downloading 'XXXXX'. The network connection could not be made".
    I'm not sure if this problem resulted from the "rewrite" function I used on my podcasting server in order to track the downloading. Here is how it works: When a mp3 file is requested, my web server will redirect the request to another asp.net program to do something and then redirect to the real mp3 file for downloading. Can it be problem in Itune? But I can use this enclosure url to download this mp3, and also the Ipodder works file with this rss feed.
    Any help will be appreciated.

    Thanks for your reply.
    However, according to the iTune specs as following,
    Tracking Usage
    Please note that iTunes does not provide usage statistics. Some podcasters have created mechanisms for tracking the number of times that each episode has been downloaded. iTunes does not provide support in how to track downloads, but the following notes may be helpful:
    * 302s will be followed to a depth of 5 redirects and will not update the feed URL in the directory.
    * The URL before the GET-style form values (before the first ?) must end in a media file extension (e.g. mp3). To work around this, the feed provider can alter their URL from this:
    http://www.podcaster.com/load.php?f=&Wipeout.php
    to this:
    http://www.podcaster.com/load.mp3?f=&Wipeout.mp3
    Notice how it says load.mp3 instead of load.php. It should be possible to accomplish this via various means, such as web server rewrites. iTunes looks at the extension of the path part of the url, i.e. the part before the”?”.
    The http request redirection is allowed as long as the appropriate file extension such as ".mp3" is used.
    By the way, I tested it with "no redirection" version, which worked fine.

  • ISF/javascript code doesn't work for non-English RequestCenter proile

    ISF/javascript code doesn't work for non-English RequestCenter proile
    Hello,
    I am not sure if i posted the same question before also. We have some customers who have set thier language profile in newScale requestcenter to French. However, all the javascript customizations configured on the service forms do not function for 'French' as a Langauge preference. Has anyone encountered the similar issue before and can anyone please suggest a solution for it?
    Thanks,
    Mihir

    we had a similar issue a while back where the Approval button was not working in Spanish, needed a fix from nS for it
    The way to fix this would be to locate the language XML file, override the French caption with Submit and on onLoad write a global JS that would write the button label again (not so sure about this)
    But really its an major defect and they should be able to fix it.

  • Edit in Photoshop from Lightroom doesn't work; Automate Photomerge doesn't work

    Edit in Photoshop from Lightroom doesn't work.
    It opens the Photoshop application with all the menus/windows, but it never opens the actual image I chose to work on.
    Likewise,  I also can't automate>Photomerge ...  I pick all the images for the PHotomerge and hit "okay," but nothing happens.   Makes me think it's  Photoshop, not Lightroom, that is all wacky.
    I'm on a Mac, using OS X Yosemite, 10.10.1  Lightroom is version 5.7  Photoshop is CS5, version 12.0.4
    I uninstalled Photoshop CS5 and reinstalled. No change.  I also tried dumping PS preferences, but that didn't affect a thing, either.

    None of my "Edit In" worked with the pictures in Lightroom for a particular folder. I expanded the 2014 folder and found that two subfolders had a "?" in front of the 2014-07-04" and another. In other words, the folder was missing. After I found the missing folders using the Lightroom "Find Missing Folder" option, I was able to use the "Edit In" menu item. The 2014 folders weren't expanded at first, so I didn't see the ? marks in front of them. With the missing folders, Lightroom's "Edit In" option was basically telling me there was no picture to "Edit In." Howerver, I have Previews and Smart Previews made when I import picture files into Lightroom. So, the "pictures" showed in the slide strip on the bottom, and also in the display in "expand," but it was actually only showing the previews I had built, not the actual missing pictures in the missing folders. I had accidentally moved some directories using Windows Explorer, and I didn't realize my "happy fingers" moved them outside of Lightroom. Of course, Lightroom has no way of knowing I moved them, and just shows the "?" before the missing folder name. After expanding the root folder, then knew what to do. Fixed it easily. It was frustrating, and took about 20 minutes to see the problem. And that fixed the greyed-out "Edit In" Photoshop CC 2014, and all the other plug-ins were greyed out too.
    Hope this fixes your problem.

  • Receiver determination doesn't work for same IDoc type but in differentSWCV

    hi guys,
    we have an emergency now. Receiver determination doesn't work for same IDoc type but in different SWCV.Please check below for detail.
    1. The process flow is : R/3 IDoc -> XI -> Third party system
    2. In previous release R13, IDoc ORDERS05 was imported and used in XI and software component version is R13. And receiver determination was created.
    3. Now, in new release R17, IDoc ORDERS05 was imported from R/3 to XI again and software component version is R17. And in R17, the receiver determination created in R13 was used for both old interface(R13) and new interface in R17.
    Then we encountered the problem, both interfaces doesn't work now, even we deleted the receiver condition(In R13, IDoc ORDERS05 was sent to system A, and in R17 IDoc ORDERS05 was sent to system B, RCVPRN was used as an condition).
    Does anyone encounter this problem? really need and appreciate your help.
