Slow boot up speed-Arch Linux

Hi everyone,i am facing two important problems in my Arch Linux
1)Slow boot-up and Shut-down
2)Poor battery life
I am using an Dell Inspiron-N5010 laptop with intel-i3 processor and 3 GB RAM and i have updated my Arch system recently and my kernel version is
Linux 3.12.9-2-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Fri Jan 31 10:22:54 CET 2014 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Login Manager=GDM
Desktop Environment=Cinnamon 2.0.14
Here is my /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
MODULES="i915 drm_kms_helper msr intel_agp dell_wmi dell_laptop acpi"
BINARIES=""
FILES=""
HOOKS="base udev autodetect modconf block fsck filesystems keyboard fsck"
Here is my output of systemd-analyze blame

10ms alsa-restore.service
and still its taking more time to get the Display Manager and after entering my login and password its taking more time to get my cinnamon desktop
I am using Laptop-Mode-Tools ,cpupower(Conservative Governor),Thermald to improve my batterylife but nothing is helping me out its just 45~1 hour in my arch system but its actually 2 to 2.5 hours in my windows 7
and i was googling for good solutions but nothing is helping me to get out of  the problems and i hope i could fix this issue by means of this forum.

Ah, anyway identify all the service files for systemd to see if there are some that you don't need. Looks like you already did.
For the slow boot up and shutdown you could give a closer look at dmesg.
Check http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/sy … eventually to see how you can save your dmesg for the shutdown part. Then look for entries that have a large gap in time (the numbers in [###] are seconds since bootup).
Can you maybe also define slow. How many seconds / minutes does it take?
its taking 23.099s for Kernel+User space and the time gap between Display Manager and Cinnamon desktop is approximately 30 sto 40 s
here is my dmesg complete output

  • Boot floppy for Arch Linux....HOWTO ?

    Hello Guys,
    Bad things happen, so I need to install Windows to my PC again. Luckly I do have a First partition I can spare for this OS, but AFAIK windows will erase my MBR, so I need a Linux boot floppy so I can boot Arch again...
    is there a way to create Boot floppy under Arch linux ?
    Also my kernell image is larger that one can fit on 1 floppy..
    Thanks,
    Sader

    The Arch installer is nonlinear, though some things from previous steps are assumed. You should be able to just run that step though.
    When in doubt, read the source! /arch/setup is one big bad bash script... and the install cd has VI. So if you're so curious as to go see what a particular step does, and know bash, open up that puppy and take a look!

  • Add'l Partitions to Dual-Boot Win 8/Arch Linux

    I'm hoping to get a dual-boot arrangement going on my refurbished Asus Q200E Netbook that Santa brought!
    Here's what the hard drive looks like now:
    Asus tells me the following:
    sda1: System Files to start
    sda2: Recovery
    sda3: OS automatically created when an OS is installed
    sda4: Operating System  [Clearly Win 8 is here]
    sda5: Unallocated space (and yet it's formatted and has 25.5 MB of data written on it)
    sda6: Add'l files for recovery
    What's the best approach to create my needed linux partitions?  Shrink sda4, and slide sda5 & sda6 to the left? 
    Any tips/suggestions/warnings would be greatly appreciated!    Does anyone know if my touchscreen will work under Arch...?
    Thanks in advance!

    I'm in the process of doing something similar (also using gparted).   Does your Asus have a touchscreen, and did it work after installing Arch? How many ext4 partitions did you use to install Arch?
    No, i don't have a touchscreen, i hope the wiki will help you with that.
    I just used 2 partitions (one for "/" and one for "/home").

  • REFInd Step by Step help dual boot OS X & Arch Linux

    Hi All,
    After reading the rEFInd docs and EFISTUB on the Arch wiki i am still having issues booting my installation.
    Firstly some backgorund, I have a MacbookPro 5,3 and have Mac OS X Mavericks installed my HDD is partitioned as follows:
    /dev/sda1 - EFI boot partition FAT32
    /dev/sda2 - Mac OS X Partition HFS+
    /dev/sda3 - / partition EXT4
    /dev/sda4  swap partition
    I have successfully installed arch however my issue is around booting i would like to use rEFInd so that when i turn on my mac i get the options of booting either Mac or Arch, Can somebody please walk me through the steps i need to do to achieve this as i am really struggling now.
    Also for reference i am using the latest Kernel 3.12 and i am on a x86_64 system with systemd
    Thanks in advance

    Did you check out Rod Smith's documentation on his site? 
    I think you should make the effort of getting this going so that you can ask specific questions.  It is not really typical for users around here to hold one's hand through installation of such a well documented piece of software.  So give it a go and see what kinds of problems you run into.
    Also, since you are a MacBook user, it might be advisable to actually install rEFInd to the OSX partition.  This will prevent a firmware lag on bootup that was at least present when I was still a MacBook user.  They just seem to give preferential treatment to HFS+ filesystems.  So you can actually install rEFInd to the OSX partition and then use the included filesystem drivers to have it scan for kernels/loaders on the ext4 partition as well.

  • Dual boot Windows 7 (64) and Arch Linux (64) problems

    Hello:
    I am new to Arch Linux and just finished installing the 64bit on my laptop. It had a prebuilt Windows 7 (64) installed which I kept but split the hdd from 160Gb to 80Gb and 80Gb. I installed Arch there and set 4 partitions, all of them as Logical - a 64 MB ext2 /boot partition; a 512 MB swap partition; a 15 GB root partition; and the rest as my /home partition. My partitions look like this:
    Disk Drive: /dev/sda
    Size: 160041885696 bytes, 160.0 GB
    Heads: 255 Sectors per Track: 63 Cylinders: 19457
    Name Flags Part Type FS Type [Label] Size (MB)
    sda1 Primary Unknown (27) 12889.02
    sda2 Boot Primary NTFS 106.93
    sda3 Primary NTFS [] 73915.11*
    sda5 Logical Linux ext2 65.81*
    sda6 Logical Linux 509.97*
    sda7 Logical Linux ext2 15002.92*
    sda8 Logical Linux ext2 57549.55*
    The install was succesful(this was running from the core install cd) and I installed GRUB to my /boot but when I restarted it loaded Windows 7. I have used Knoppix USB disc to boot and see my Arch Linux install files and edited the /boot/gur/menu.lst file.
    In Windows I installed EasyBCD 1.7.2 and tried to get NeoGrub bootloader working as a dual boot. I tried getting rid of the boot flag for Windows with cfdisk and setting it to my (Logical) sda5. That did not work. So far the only way I have booted into my Arch Linux install has been by going to the Live CD, choosing "Boot from Existing Linux Install" and editing the command files there.
    root (hd0,4)
    kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sda3 ro
    initrd /kernel26.img
    My goal is to get a dual boot working for Windows 7 and Arch Linux 64 and continue installing the Xorg and KDE to Arch. I just don't know what the problem is here. I don't mind reinstalling Arch if something went wrong, but I would like to keep my Windows running in order and add Arch on.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I ran the LiveCD and chose "Install to MBR hd0". I ended up with this:
    setup hd(0,1)
    Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists.....yes
    Checking if "/boot/grub/iso9660_stage1_5" exists.....yes
    Running "embed /boot/grub/iso9660_stage1_5 (hd0,1)".....failed(this is not fatal)
    Running "embed /boot/grub/iso9660_stage1_5 (hd16)".....failed(this is not fatal)
    Running "install /boot/grub/stage1 d (hd0,1) /boot/grub/stage2 p (hd0,1) boot/grub/menu.lst".....failed
    Error 31: File is not sector aligned
    My entry for Windows into the menu.lst looks like this:
    # (0) Arch Linux x64
    title Arch Linux x64
    root (hd0,4)
    kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/disk/by-uuid/3841273c-d91e-41d6-9dbf-716a15d03a01 ro

  • Dual-Booting Arch Linux and Windows 7

    Hello,
    I am attempting to set up a dual-boot configuration with Windows 7 (installed first), and Arch Linux. When I went to install, I read in the documentation that the AIF doesn't support installing GRUB to a separate partition other than the MBR on the drive. I want to install GRUB separate from the Windows MBR so I can use Easy BCD to chainload the two bootloaders (i.e. installing GRUB on /dev/sda5 instead of /dev/sda). I went through the installation process and tried to install GRUB manually via the instructions given in the documentation. But when I went to boot Arch, I was greeted with the GRUB shell instead of the boot menu. What did I do wrong? And is there any easier way to install Arch this way given that I do not want to overwrite the Windows bootloader? I went ahead and wiped the Linux partitions on my drive, so I am going to do the install again once I have some suggestions.
    Thanks!

    To the original poster: 
    If you want to chainload both Windows and Arch Linux using your preferred boot manager, you'd have to create a separate 'boot' partition when installing Arch Linux.  When you are in the Arch installation, create a separate partition of about 500 MB, then create the root partition of whatever size you need, and then create swap partition if necessary.  So your HD would resemble something like this:  /dev/sda5=boot partition of 500 MB; /dev/sda6=root partition of ## MB/GB; and /dev/sda7=swap partition of (RAM * 2) GB.  Then continue with the Arch installation procedure until you get to the end where you are prompted to install a boot loader.  Choose GRUB, and install it to the 'boot' partition on /dev/sda5.  This will allow you to chainload Arch via Easy BCD.  What happens is Easy BCD will pass the message to GRUB on /dev/sda5, and GRUB will then load your Arch root system on /dev/sda6. 
    I hope this helps.  I support your choice in using Easy BCD to chainload Windows and Linux.  Software is, after all, about choice.  Furthermore, you've presented a good reason to use Easy BCD as the main boot loader, which is to save you from unnecessary tinkering with the GRUB shell or Live CDs and whatnot.  However, if you don't want to create the separate 'boot' partition, then you'll have no other choice but to use GRUB or syslinux on the MBR.
    Thanks. Yes...I followed the procedure just like you described. I figured that my problem was that I didn't create a separate /boot partition, so I reformatted the partitions I created and redid the install. However, I was not able to install GRUB in the AIF; I had to reboot into the Live CD and install GRUB to my boot partition manually. All is good now as I have a working dual-boot now. Arch Linux has been a sort of learning curve for me, but I have gained valuable knowledge and experience by using this distro.
    Yes. I didn't want to mess with GRUB or NTLDR. I know that reinstalling NTLDR is not that difficult, but I didn't want to mess with it at all. It just seemed easier to chainload GRUB to NTLDR using EasyBCD. I'm a sort of "distro-hopper" anyhow, and using this method allows me to cleanly remove any distro I install without having to mess with GRUB or reinstalling NTLDR.
    Thanks!
    Glad to hear!  Yes, Arch Linux is a wonderful distribution, and one of my favorites.  It's great for not-so-newbie beginners to learn from.  pacman is one of my favorite package managers, as there is always the latest stable software available in the Arch repos.  Glad everything worked out.  Have fun with Arch!

  • [Solved]How can I create a bootable backup of my arch linux partition?

    I'm trying to get my arch linux installation to have a gui, specifically KDE. I downloaded Xorg and the nvidia proprietary driver 340.24. After installing the nvidia driver and rebooting, my screen stays black and I can't see my console. I can still login and reboot but I just can't see my screen. I've also tried booting into the arch linux fallback listed in the grub bootloader but that also had a black screen. At this point, I just reinstalled Arch Linux since I didn't really have anything on it anyway but this time I hope not to run into this problem. I will try installing a different driver but if I do run into the same problem, I want to be able to just copy over a backup of my OS and just boot off of that instead of completely reinstalling the system. Thanks in advance.
    Edit: I read up a bit on the dd command and learned that it can effectively copy an entire partition including the master boot record. Could this be the possible solution? I just wanted to post this edit here to make sure.

    Backing up using dd
    When you clone your entire disk the MBR will also be copied over. The wiki just states you can back up just the MBR itself if need be.
    I strongly do not recommend just reinstalling your system in the future unless it's needed, you learn nothing from it and it can drive away other users from helping you. Especially if its just and issue to do with Xorg.

  • Computer freezes before BIOS after arch linux install

    This is my first time installing arch linux, I followed the beginners install guide word for word. However, after the install, my computer gets stuck before the BIOS. It identifies the RAM, GPU, and harddrive (all Diagnostic lights are ok on my MOBO). Before the install it booted fine, but now when I boot it up it wont go to the BIOS screen no matter how many times I press delete. However, when I remove the harddrive it boots to the arch linux install screen on my USB drive perfectly.
    I know it is not my hardware because I did many different tests (mem-test, swapped out harddrives, tried 1 stick of RAM in different slots, etc). More importantly, my harddrive is brand new so I know it isn't dead because I could partition it when I was installing arch linux.
    Computer specs:
    AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3700+
    DFI LANPARTY nf4-d
    ATI Radeon x800
    2 GB DDR RAM
    160 GB SSD
    I have no idea what the problem is, I must have screwed something up with the bootloader or something. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Try clearing the CMOS settings either by removing the motherboard battery for some minutes or by using the relevant jumper on the motherboard. Check the manual of your motherboard for details.

  • Arch linux doesn't boot after installing AMD ATI Catalyst

    I have a laptop which has a integrated graphic card intel 4th generation (4600) and an AMD ATI R9 m265x (hybrid Intel/AMD graphics card) so I have just installed AMD ATI Catalyst proprietary ones by following
    AMD Catalyst ArchWiki.
    I have used "Installing from the unofficial repository" method so in my pacman.conf I have added below entry for [catalyst-stable]:
    [catalyst-stable]
    Server = http://catalyst.wirephire.com/repo/catalyst/$arch
    ## Mirrors, if the primary server does not work or is too slow:
    #Server = http://70.239.162.206/catalyst-mirror/repo/catalyst/$arch
    #Server = http://mirror.rts-informatique.fr/archlinux-catalyst/repo/catalyst/$arch
    #Server = http://mirror.hactar.bz/Vi0L0/catalyst/$arch
    Then I have update pacman's database and install below packages:
    catalyst-hook
    catalyst-utils-pxp
    lib32-catalyst-utils-pxp
    (No need to install catalyst-total-pxp as I have installed catalyst-utils-pxp)
    After installing it, I have configured the driver, configuring X using below command:
    # aticonfig --initial
    In order to use PowerXpress support I have installed catalyst-utils-pxp package plus additional lib32-catalyst-utils-pxp.
    To perform a switch into Intel's IGP I have also installed the mesa-libgl  package and Intel's drivers: xf86-video-intel  and intel-dri .
    I have enable the automatic update by enabling the catalyst-hook.service with below commands since it automatically rebuilds the fglrx modules while the system shuts down or reboots (so I haven't to do it manually each time kernel is updated using Catalyst-generator):
    # systemctl enable catalyst-hook
    # systemctl start catalyst-hook
    And finally I have blacklisted radeon module by creating "/etc/modprobe.d/blacklisted.conf" file which content is:
    blacklist radeon
    and also I have ensured that fglrx line is added in "/etc/modules-load.d/Catalyst.conf" file.
    To avoid problems, I have rebuilt the fglrx module by doing (I know it is not necessary as it is done by catalyst-hook):
    catalyst_build_module all
    Once I reboot, arch linux does not boot. Last lines printed out are below and then it freezes:
    Starting temp files linker to catalyst...
    Starting Catalyst event Daemon...
    [ OK ] Started Catalyst event Daemon
    Starting Catalyst's fglrx kernel' module builder...
    [ OK ] Started temp files linker for catalyst.
    [ OK ] Started Catalyst's fglrx kernel' modue builder.
    [ OK ] Started gnome Display manager.
    [ OK ] Started Network manager.
    [ OK ] Reached target Multi-User system.
    [ OK ] Reached target Graphical Interface.
    [ OK ] Reached target Network.
    I have tried to put nomodeset as a kernel parameter but it does not work. Also, after reading ArchWiki, I have noticed that it is recommended to don't do this as I am using catalyst-utils-pxp because intel driver needs it so I have removed nomodeset parameter from kernel but It continues not working.
    Any ideas?
    Package versions:
    Kernel version 3.17.6-1-ARCH
    catalyst-hook 14.12-1
    catalyst-utils-pxp 14.12-1
    lib32-catalyst-utils-pxp 14.12-1
    xorg-server 1.16.2.901-1
    xf86-video-intel 2.99.916-3

    FInally I managed to boot arch linux.
    I had to downgrade xorg-server from 1.16.2.901-1 to 1.15.2-1.
    It seems there is a problem with Catalyst 14.12-1 and xorg-server 1.16.2.901-1.
    Also I had to replace desktop manager from gdm to lightdm as gdm raises segmentation faults using xorg-server versions 1.16.2.901-1 and 1.15.2-1.
    Finally I had to add an entry in pacman.conf:
    [xorg115]
    Server = http://catalyst.wirephire.com/repo/xorg115/$arch
    ## Mirrors, if the primary server does not work or is too slow:
    #Server = http://mirror.rts-informatique.fr/archlinux-catalyst/repo/xorg115/$arch
    #Server = http://mirror.hactar.bz/Vi0L0/xorg115/$arch
    Then performs following actions:
    1)  # pacman -Syuu catalyst-hook catalyst-utils-pxp
    2) Uninstall all the packages xf86* such as xf86-video-intel, xf86-input-evdev,  xf86-input-synaptics, etc.
    3) Install the packages uninstalled in step 2 and install them again using xorg115 repo, for example, # pacman -S xorg115/xf86-video-intel xorg115/xf86-input-evdev xorg115/xf86-input-synaptics
    I have put a comment here.

  • Arch Slow Boot

    This may seem like a trivial question.
    When I used to use Arch Linux 0.6 I used to boot in about 3 seconds.
    When I switched over to the 0.7 and new kernel it now takes about 10 - 15 min to boot.
    This is kind of hindering my usage of Arch as my primary OS.
    THe part of the boot that takes seems to slow down is when it checks all of my IDE devices. It seems to try to detect hdc, hdd, hde, hdf, hdg and takes forever and everntually says "(Resetting Drive)".
    Here is my fstab:
    # /etc/fstab: static file system information
    # <file system>        <dir>         <type>    <options>          <dump> <pass>

    Thanks for any help you may give. 

    My System specs are
    AMD Athlon 64 3400+ (3.6 Ghz)
    1.5 GB of Corsair DDR2 4300
    ATI Radeon 7000 PCI Card :oops:
    WD 60GB SATA Drive
    By the way, when I say the boot time, I'm refering to the time that Arch Linux itself boots. From GRUB/LILO to the logon display not the whole computer.
    I'm also running very few sevrices yet, I don't have CUPS, Alsa, Samba, or Apache, MySQL, PHP... running yet. I figure that when I install these it will about 20 seconds. Which is still pretty fast. And much better than that "other operating system" I used to run. 

  • PC with slow boot and pc speed, sudden high pc usage, delay-freeze when opening/performing something

    Hi,
    Before everything, two things:
    1. I'm not a native english speaker so i may have some problems to speak properly/as objective as i'd like to.
    2 . I'm writing in this section because i don't know the cause of my pc issues so i can't categorize them.
    Now, my computer is a Toshiba satellite L755-S5244, Windows 7 Home premium 64 bits, Intel pentium CPU B940 2Ghz, 4 Gb RAM, and I'm writing this message using it.
    I bought the laptop in December of 2011 and at the beggining it was working normally. Someone else used the computer these last months and he left the pc without antivirus protection; when i installed one (Avast) and start to analyze the pc it suddenly shutted down. It wasn't able to boot, so after some trys to restore/enter in safe mode I finally used the Toshiba Recovery Wizard to get the pc to the original factory settings. The process was sucessfull, so the first thing i did after finish the process was install a new antivirus (this time i used Kaspersky Pure) and the the analysis showed no threats as i expected.
    However, before the recovery process i realized of some slow performance on the computer, like talking a bit too long to opening files or menus, control panel... almost anything was opening with a little delay even just after start the pc. This problem continued even after the recovery process. Also, an online game -League of legends- which was working fine when i just bought the pc, developed some issue: the screen and the audio randomly frezees for like 3-5 seconds. These problems seems to be related between each other.
    But that wasn't all. After the recovery to the original factory settings, i just installed a few things:
    -Kaspersky Pure 2.0, CCleaner (free), Mozila Firefox, and League of legends.
    Later I also installed Microsoft Office 2010.
    The antivirus showed no threats. The game kept with the freeze thing.
    And 2 days ago i was playing league of legends and downloading Skype when the pc suddenly got too slow. I restarted it. After the restart it took a long time to boot, and before the windows login screen loaded there was a black screen where only the mouse was showed; the start-up was slow too, (this one showed a blue screen with the mouse too -but not BSOD-) all this took like 15-20 minutes; that never happened before so i restarted the computer again but the problem was the same: slow boot, slow desktop start-up (let's not even talk about opening something).
    I went to the repair menu (f8) and try to restore the system but it didn't change anything. I checked for memory issues but there wasn't. I looked also for starting problems but the repair didn't find anything. All in there was saying: "the computer performance seems normal", but it wasn't. Like entering to windows in normal mode was talking to long, i tried the safe mode. It was also slow but not that much. When i entered, a system restore which i wasn't able to performance before in normal mode popped-up and said that the system was restored sucessfully to the first restore point -just after the factory recovery, but it apparently didn't fix the slow bot issue.
    Even in safe mode the software was working slow so i decided to go for the toshiba recovery wizard again, and looked in here, the forums -and the rest of the net- for problems like mine.
    This time the Toshiba Recovery Wizard took like ages to finish. 3 hours just for recovering, and like 7 more hours just installing the drivers. The boot/start-up was still slow, so i think this was the cause of the slow recovery because the wizard restarts the computer a lot.
    When the factory settings recovery finished, the first boot was slow, also the start up, the programs, the start menu, the control panel, ... everything was slow the first time i opened it. If i keep using the same program, it seems normal, but randomly freezes if i select some option, of press something (like this browser, google chrome, even now when i'm writing this message or before where i was registering into the forums). As obvious, because this slow performance i'm really not comfortable using this computer.
    I used the HDD SDD Alert but it says the HDD is working fine (the hard drive doesn't make weirds sounds, i almost don't hear it at all); also i did a PC Diagnostic with the PC diagnostic tool and everything passed the test. I can't think of virus/malware because i did the recovery wizard, twice. I just installed Avast again and it didn't find anything. With the task manager i noticed of a high pc usage (almost always 100%) was showing for a really short moment when/after the computer freezes.
    So, i don't know how to solve this slow performance.
    The last thing i did was download those speed-up softwares: SpeedUpMyPc, RegCurePro, SpeedyPC pro and Pareto logic Health Advisor. They scanned the pc for free and found like 100 system performance issues, but I'm not able to use these programms to fix the issues if i dont buy them. Also i'm not even sure if that will fix my problems.
    That's why i'm here, looking for a way to identify/fix them. One last thing: all this time i've been checking the temperature of the laptop but is never hot -now is not even warm. Now i'm afraid of restarting the PC again cuz i know it will take a long time to get into a kinda stable performance like right now.
    So that's all.  If you read all this, have my thanks. Also, any help would be really appreciated it.
    EDIT: 
    A new thing happened. When i try to installed league of legends, the setup told me that my hard drive may be corrupted and the file won't copy, i skip it a few times but the installation took a long of time (half hour) and the error kept ocurring.  I hope this can may be a clue about what is happening to my pc. 

    Satellite L755-S5244
    If you restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media and still have trouble, then you know it's not due to software.
    the setup told me that my hard drive may be corrupted and the file won't copy, i skip it a few times but the installation took a long of time (half hour) and the error kept ocurring.
    In particular, that sort of thing occurs when a hard drive is failing. Time to call Toshiba's tech support at 1-800-457-7777 (from the US) or 1-949-859-4273 (from outside the US).

  • [SOLVED] Arch Linux Duke (2007) Fails to Boot

    Folks, I have a unique and challenging problem that has exhausted my Arch Linux skills, and so I am now turning to you.
    I have a vintage Pentium Pro 200 system (that’s 200 MHz folks! – 200 MHz 686 architecture – the original 686!), two CPUs, running a dual boot between Windows NT 4.0 and Arch Linux Duke (2007). It has 512 MB of RAM and a 120 GB hard drive, partitioned up between Windows NT and Linux. I built this system new in 2007, hence the dated version of Arch.  It has run like a charm all these years, granted not getting that much use. After about a year of no use at all, I fired the system up last week to help with a little research for a blog post I was writing on networking Windows NT 4.0 and Mac OS 8.6. Windows NT 4.0 fired right up with no issue, and after I was done testing what needed to be tested I tried to boot over to Arch.
    After a year of disuse, Arch unexpectedly and stubbornly refused to boot. The boot process started up just fine, but towards the end, it declared that it could not mount the root file system on the root device and took a kernel panic and stopped. My Arch skills have gotten a bit rusty in the last few years, but I dusted them off and went to work. My guess was a file system or superblock error. Arch wouldn’t boot, but I dragged out my trusty RIPLinux 2.9 Rescue Live CD and fired it up. It came right up and ran, and I was able to mount the Arch partition and view all the files… everything seemed to be there; it just wouldn’t boot. Windows NT 4.0 AND RIPLinux both boot and run on the machine, so the hardware is fine as well.
    A little information on the disk layout. Windows NT 4.0 is in the first partition on the hard drive. The extended partition has a second Windows NT 4.0 partition (sort of a /home partition for Windows NT 4.0), followed by the main Arch partition (the one I am trying to boot), followed by a swap partition and then the largest partition, which I use to share data between Arch and Windows NT 4.0 (I have loaded an ext2/3 driver into Windows NT 4.0 and it happily accesses the Linux partitions on the box).
    RIPLinux’s e2fsck did find some issues with the Arch partition and I had it repair them all. I checked again afterwards that all the files were still there, and they were. With the partition now known to be clean, and the superblock repaired from one of the backups, all should have been well. However, Arch still wouldn’t (and still won’t) boot.
    RIPLinux has a kind of a chain loader function, so I had it attempt to start up Arch for me. However, this was flummoxed by the fact that Arch addresses all my hard drive partitions as /dev/sdax and RIPLinux addresses them as /dev/hdax. Hence, without a common language, it was hard to get the one to start the other. Still, using this function, I have been able to get a crippled version of Arch running on the machine again. No modules had been loaded, and so it couldn’t do almost anything, but there it was (and is), Arch Linux Duke, at the CLI level. From there, I can see all the files, I can move freely in and out of my user account and the root account, but I can’t make the thing actually boot properly.
    If you have read this far, you are a trooper.  Summarizing what I know, the hardware is good, the file system is clean, the superblock is good, I can mount it cleanly from a live CD and I can chain load a crippled version of Arch. Here is the boot process blow-by-blow. When I try to do a normal boot, the Windows NT 4.0 loader passes control to the Lilo boot sector I have placed on hda1 (sda1 in Duke’s parlance). Lilo takes over, present a menu and when I select Duke, takes off. Arch Linux Duke starts to boot. It gets a good long way along, all the way along to:
    :: Loading udev events                [Pass]
    :: Mount root Read-only
    :: Checking file systems
    This is where it stops.
    The next thing I see is:
    /dev/sda6
    The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem. If the device is valid and it really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else) then the superblock is corrupt and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
        E2fsck –b 8193 <device>
    I then get a sort of character based splash screen that says
    **********FILE SYSTEM CHECK FAILED ****************************
    *   Please repair manually and reboot. Note that the root file system
    *   is currently mounted read-only. To remount it read-write, type:
    *   mount –n –o remount,rw /.  When you exit the maintenance
    *   shell, the system will reboot automatically
    Give root password for maintenance
    At this point, I give the root password and enter the maintenance shell as root. I typed in “mount” and the first entry I got back is
    /dev/sda6 on / type ext3 (rw)
    This is exactly the root partition that the start up complains about. It is clearly there.  I can see it, I can walk around it… it is clearly there. Why won’t it boot? Despite the message, the superblock is fine – it passes every test e2fsck can throw at it.
    At this point, I did a “e2fsck /dev/hda6 (which is how RIPLinux would have passed it into Arch” and it says it is “clean”. I suspect that the Superblock message is because Arch sees root as sda6, while RIP passed it in as hda6...
    Deciding to see what Arch would be seeing as it tried to set things up in the boot sequence, I tried the following next:
    # mknod “/dev/root2” b 3 6   
    (“3” because RIPLinux refers to my hard drive as IDE, while Arch refers to it by major number “8”, which is SCSI. By the way, it IS an IDE drive – not sure why Arch insists on using the sdx nomenclature instead of hdx)
    Then I entered “mount /dev/root2 /mnt/hda6” and “ls /mnt/hda6”
    All was well. I can make the node, I can mount it, and I can see the contents. All is clearly well, but something is clearly wrong enough that Arch can’t boot.
    I am totally out of ideas. I have tried every trick I know and am out of tricks. I would welcome any insights as to what I could try to get this venerable Arch installation back on its legs.
    By the way, the key section of the /etc/lilo.conf file (lest anyone want to know) is:
    image = /boot/vmlinuz26
       root = /dev/sda6
       label = ArchLinux-Duke
       initrd = /boot/kernel26.img
       read-only
    I am stumped. Thanks in advance for any and all pointers you may be able to offer.

    Folks, thanks for all your helpful comments, and I wanted to report back to you that I finally overcame the issue, and ArchLinux-Duke (2007) is once again executing flawlessly on my old Pentium Pro 200 system. I won't bother reporting here all the blind allies I went down as I tried to figure out what was wrong, but in the end, literally moments before I was about to give up and overwrite my Arch installation with a new Linux variant (antiX seemed well suited for such old and low power hardware), my attention was drawn to a note I had made in my files back in 2007 about a problem with similar symptoms. In that case, I had just deleted ZenWalk Linux from the hard drive (both Arch and Zen had been on the drive), and merged several partitions to make use of the newly free space. This had changed Arch's view of the drive lettering, and what had been its /dev/sddx root device was now /dev/sdcx. Arch failed to boot, throwing off the same errors I was seeing now. I wish I had recalled that note a month or so ago! It would have saved me a lot of work and a lot of frustration.
    At any rate, as a last step, and testing the idea that maybe the drive lettering had changed for some reason, I repeatedly manually booted Arch, specifying root=/dev/sda6, then /dev/sdb6, then /dev/sdd6, and finally, /dev/sdc6. Eureka! Arch now considered itself to be on /dev/sdc6 whereas previously it had been on /dev/sda6. This got me part way there, but the boot failed at the filesystem check stage and threw me into root. I disabled the file system check in /etc/rc.sysinit and got farther. Then I cleaned up /etc/fstab to agree with the new sdc naming, and I was back on the air fully.
    So, what had happened was that Arch had changed its view of the drive it was on from sda6 to sdc6. While I could not understand why this "sudden" change had occurred, at least I had a solution, and had Arch back up and running.
    Trolling through the rest of my notes, I found the answer. In 2012, the Tekram SCSI card in the machine failed, and I ultimately replaced it with an Adaptec card. The Tekram card did not have a BIOS segment on it. The Adaptec card did. My guess is that this caused the two internal SCSI devices I have built into the system (Iomega ZIP and Jaz respectively) to be enumerated first, claiming the "sda" and "sdb". device names. That left "sdc" for the root device, and that is where Arch went next.  This is my guess anyway.
    I should have caught this issue back in 2012, at the time, but from my notes, I can see that I tested the new card thoroughly using the  Windows NT 4.0 side of the machine, but never thought to bring up Arch as well. Hence, this problem lay dormant for two years, before I attempted to fire up Arch last month and blundered right into it.
    It has not all been bad. I have learned more about the ext2 and ext3 file systems and superblocks in the intervening time than I will ever need to use. I have learned how to manually boot Linux on a machine whose BIOS is so old that it cannot address the disk cylinder that the kernel is on and I have completely refreshed the many general Linux skills that used to just flow from my finger tips. It has been a frustrating experience, but ultimately a successful and useful one.
    Just wanted to let everyone know that this is now [SOLVED]. I would mark the post as such, but I don't see any obvious way to do that. Thanks again everyone.

  • HOWTO: Repairing a headless Arch Linux system that fails to boot

    The scenario...
    I have a "headless" (no monitor or input peripherals) Arch Linux computer that is connected to a local network via a wireless adapter, and accessed from other computers via SSH.
    Earlier today I accidentally broke its kernel so it did not boot anymore.
    Idea: Temporarily connect a monitor to the computer, boot from a live CD (like the Arch Linux install CD), then chroot into the system and fix it.
    Problem: I didn't have a compatible monitor at hand.
    Idea: Log in to the live CD session from another computer via SSH.
    Problem: The live CD can't auto-configure the headless computer's wireless connection, and setting it up manually while working "blind" would be a major hassle. A direct LAN connection to the router wasn't available either.
    Idea: Connect directly with a laptop via an Ethernet cable, and then use SSH from the laptop => This solution worked for me!
    If you find yourself in a similar situation, you can follow this tutorial which describes the solution that worked for me in detail...
    You need:
    a copy of the Arch Linux install CD (I used the 2013-05-01 version)
    an Ethernet cable
    a keyboard (might be dispensable, with additional preparation)
    a functional Arch Linux laptop (or other computer within physical range)
    Step 1) Prepare the live CD...
    I used the plain Arch Linux install iso, burnt to CD.
    By creating a carefully customized version of the live CD using Archiso, you might be able to eliminate the need for steps 2 and 4 - however that's not covered in this tutorial.
    Step 2) Prepare the laptop...
    The laptop needs to be configured in such a way, that the live CD's attempt to automatically establish an Ethernet connection with it will succeed:
    a) IP address
    In my case, the Laptop's wireless adapter had an IP address in the range 192.168.1.*, connecting it to the local network and Internet via the central router 192.168.1.1.
    The Ethernet connection between the laptop and the headless computer becomes a separate mini-network, for which I decided to use IP addresses in the range 192.168.0.* (note the different third number). Specifically, I set the IP address of my laptop's Ethernet card to 192.168.0.1. You can do this by running the following as root (replace "eth0" with the name of your Ethernet interface):
    ip link set eth0 up
    ip addr add 192.168.0.1/24 dev eth0
    b) IP forwarding (optional)
    While we're at it, we might as well enable IP forwarding, so that the live CD session on the headless computer will be able to directly use the laptop's outgoing Internet connection (which will make it much more convenient to install/upgrade packages during the repair session). To enable this, run the following as root (replace "eth0" and "wlan0" with the names of your laptop's Ethernet and wireless interfaces, respectively):
    iptables --table nat --append POSTROUTING --out-interface wlan0 -j MASQUERADE
    iptables --append FORWARD --in-interface eth0 -j ACCEPT
    sh -c "echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward"
    c) DHCP
    The live CD will assume there's a router on the other side of the Ethernet link, and ask for an IP address via DHCP. So all we need to do, is run a dhcp server on the Laptop that will answer this request. It's surprisingly easy: Just install the package dnsmasq, and put the following in the file /etc/dnsmasq.conf (again replacing "eth0" as appropriate):
    interface=eth0
    dhcp-range=192.168.0.2,192.168.0.2
    By setting the start & end values of dhcp-range to the same IP address, we enforce that this specific IP address will be used by the live CD on the headless computer.
    Then start the daemon by running the following as root:
    systemctl start dnsmasq.service
    Step 3) Connect everything and boot up the live CD...
    Connect the laptop and the headless computer via the Ethernet cable.
    Connect the external keyboard to the headless computer.
    Then put the Arch Linux install CD into the headless computer's drive, and boot. Wait a minute or so to give the CD time to load its boot menu (you should hear the CD drive spin up and settle down again). Then hit ENTER on the connected keyboard, to activate the default menu choice (which will boot straight to a live Arch Linux session with root privileges).
    You can check whether it booted up and successfully initialized the Ethernet connection, by ping'ing the IP address that was specified in step 2c) from the laptop:
    ping -c3 192.168.0.2
    Step 4) Start the SSH server...
    Unfortunately, the Arch Linux install CD doesn't automatically start its SSH server, and also it uses a randomized root password. To make SSH connections possible, you will have to use the connected keyboard to type in some stuff "blindly" (but it's simple enough):
    type "passwd" (without the quotes)
    type in a new password of your choice
    press ENTER
    type in the same password again
    press ENTER
    type "systemctl start sshd" (without the quotes)
    press ENTER
    Step 5) Connect from the laptop via SSH...
    Now you can open an SSH connection, by executing the following on the laptop (when it asks for the password, enter the one you chose in step 4):
    ssh [email protected]
    Step 6) Profit!
    Within this SSH shell on the laptop, you can now do whatever you would usually do to fix an Arch Linux system from a live CD.
    You'll probably want to chroot into your Arch root partition, which is very easy thanks to the arch-chroot tool that is included on the live CD (replace "/dev/sda3" with the name of the headless computer's root partition):
    mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
    arch-chroot /mnt
    If you set up IP forwarding as described in step 2b), then Internet access should magically work in this shell without any further configuration, so you can freely use pacman etc. inside the chroot.
    Enjoy!

    It is definitely able to recognize the USB and DVDs as separate drives; it gives the option of booting from USB, and it gives the memory capacity of the USB drive I used as a live USB, and the memory used for the live CD.  But when it comes time to actually boot, something is going wrong.
    I would suspect it is a problem with the BIOS, if not for the fact that I had a similar issue on my previous system, which used a completely different motherboard.  If it is the same issue, it would either have to be a problem with the DVD drive (although I don't know why it would be against loading some live CDs but not others) or perhaps the way I created the live CDs.  Although, again, I don't understand why the Linux Mint 32-bit DVD would work fine, while both 64-bit DVDs would not.
    I will try using a different DVD drive to boot the DVDs, and if that does not work, I'll try creating a new Arch live CD to see if I can resolve the issue.  But if anyone has any ideas, it would still be greatly appreciated.

  • Installing Arch Linux on USB key: error while booting

    Hello,
    first of all, I must say I've followed the steps from this article on arch wiki to install archlinux on my USB key: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/In … _a_USB_key
    So what I did is to use one of my 2 usb keys to INSTALL linux, and the second one to RUN linux. I used dd to write on the 1st usb, eveything worked fine when booting, then I do install arch on the my second usb following the stept from the link above, everything works until I get this error while booting (at the middle):
    Waiting 10 seconds for device /dev/sdc/
    Root device '/dev/sdc' doesn't exist. Attempting to create it.
    ERROR: Unable to determine major/minor number of root device '/dev/disk/by-uuid/lotsofnumbers'
    You are being dropped to a recovery shell
    Type 'exit' to try and continue booting
    /bin/sh: Can't contact tty; job control turned off
    [ramfs /]#
    To summarize I'll show you my conf files that could help you to resolve my problem:
    /etc/fstab.conf
    /dev/sdc1 /boot ext2 defaults 0 1
    /dev/sdc2 / ext3 defaults 0 1
    /dev/sdc3 /home ext3 defaults 0 1
    So here I've sdc1 boot 32MB partition; sdc2 root 3GB partition; sdc3 home 978MB partition for a total of 4GB USB key~
    I didn't make a swap partition as in the tutorial they are writing it's unnecessary for some kind of reasons.
    /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
    HOOKS="base udev usb autodetect pata scsi sata filesystems"
    I've added to here, "usb" to the hooks
    installed GRUB on my sdc, here is the menu.ist:
    # (0) Arch Linux
    title Arch Linux (USB)
    root (hd0,0)
    kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sdc ro vga=773
    initrd /kernel26.img
    So, I boot GRUB without problems, start Arch Linux, but then I got this error above.
    I've searched alot on some forums and read many stuffs, but sitll can't fix it and it seems complicated.
    I've tried to boot with UUID, also, but didn't make difference. I tried to remove some parameter from the hooks, but unfortunately this wasn't working still. I've read somewhere to use chroot, but I didn't catch on how to do that and what was the use of chroot, I'm still noob user of arch linux and currently learning. Maybe it's the problem, as some forum were talking about creating a new image, but I still don't know how to make it. By the way, I'm not sure this could have fixed my current problem. I've also read somewhere it could be due to my lack of space, but I wrote you how I did partition my USB key, let me know if you have any suggestion please.

    1. What I did is re-installing entirely from my installation disk or USB to test out different setting in  my config files, because I don't know how to edit my .conf as I can't really finish to boot to the end and get in terminal mode? If there is a quicker way to edit files from any terminal to go into my current USB sdc to modify directly my file from there, I'd enjoy probably. So rebuilding the initpio, no, I just re-installed to test out different configs.
    2. Yes, same error.
    3. Tested out by-id/by-path and uuid = no difference
    4. Didn't know about larch, it seems to be a nice tool, I'll check it out

  • [SOLVED]Arch Linux, and Windows 8.1 Dual Boot issue

    Hi guys. I recently bought a new laptop, and decided to run Arch Linux and Windows 8.1. I installed Windows 8.1 first as recommended by the beginners guide, and then installed Arch Linux. I made sure UEFI was enabled in my BIOS, and made sure everything was on a GPT partition. The install itself went fine. My laptop loads grub, and Arch Linux shows up and boots, but there is no option to boot into Windows 8.1. The only way I can boot into Windows 8.1 is by accessing my motherboard, and choosing to launch the windows boot manager instead of the grub launcher. How can I get Windows 8.1 to show up in grub? Thanks in advance guys.

    Yeah I'm sure I'm doing something wrong lol. I did not install OS-Prober. I think that's where the issue is. I'm missing the menu entry in grub.cfg right? Do I just run os prober or do I have to manually edit grub.cfg.
    If that's not the case then here is what I did up until now. What I did was start with a blank SSD drive. I used cgdisk to make the disk use a GPT partitioning scheme. I installed windows 8.1 and checked in windows to make sure it boots into UEFI-GPT mode and it does.  I then installed arch linux using the beginners guide. I made sure to use cgdisk to create any extra partitions, and installed GRUB to the efi partition that windows had created ( I did not format this partition ). I then finished the installation and rebooted, and Grub only shows arch linux. I don't think I'm dealing with anything MBR related. I made sure I used the GPT partitioning scheme....i think lol.
    All you need to do is run os-prober then run grub-mkconfig. It should pick up Windows at that point.
