[SOLVED] Console screen garbled installing to HP Proliant ML10 server

Hi,
We have bought a new HP proliant ML10 for replacing the machine that is being used as the main server of our school and running debian-edu / skolelinux.
Considering the cutting edge software and etc benefits of arch, I'm planning to setup dual boot the main server with skolelinux for current use and arch alongside. I can experiment with arch in the time when no one uses the server/clients (night time). My plan is to setup arch to server diskless clients and do a migration from debian-edu / skolelinux. This seems ok to me from security standpoint as we used to have all MS win machines with no firewall at all before we migrated everything to linux a few months back.
Now to the problem,
While using the latest dual USB arch install media, I do get an initial root console but it is looking diagonal and totally garbled, hard to read.
here is the lspci output obtained by booting the HP server as diskless from our old debian server

[SOLVED]black screen after installing nvidia driver from official repo

Hi!
I have just made a clean install this afternoon and I really can not get the drivers from nvidia in the official rep to work. After booting it just gives me blackscreen.
What I have tried:
1. Blacklisted nouveau.
2. Doublechecked mkinitcpio.conf for nouveao under "MODULES" section.
3. Rebuilt initramfs by doing
mkinitcpio -p linux
4. i tried with a "nomodeset" by entering it in grub.
5. Last I tried to remove nouveau by doing
pacman -Ss nouevau
pacman -R mesa
pacman -Rc mesa (here I double checked the packages and nothing really vital for a full boot of a non-graphical interface (TTY1) is gone)
After Pressing enter from grub I can not see anythin, except from some text that flashes by, Something about checking /dev/sda6 for any errors... Except from that, nothing. Just a black screen.
I am writing this from my phone right now, please understand if I am doing any spelling errors (too lazy to chroot ehen in my bed and PC turned off for the night )

But ty anyway for the suggestion Jason, appreciate it!
will mark this thread as solved now

Please a simple problem but I don't know how to solve it. After installing 16 gb of ram all is good but when I turn on the computer it is a window signaling that all is correct. How is possible to delete once and for all that window? Thank you

Well then maybe you could take a screenshot because the appearance of such a window is news to me.
Also post your OS X version and what model Mac you have. The more detail, the better. Thanks.
To take a screenshot hold ⌘ Shift 4 to create a selection crosshair. Click and hold while you drag the crosshair over the area you wish to capture and then release the mouse or trackpad. You will hear a "camera shutter" sound. This will deposit a screenshot on your Desktop.
If you can't find it on your Desktop look in your Documents or Downloads folder.
When you post your response, click the "camera" icon above the text field:
This will display a dialog box which enables you to choose the screenshot file (remember it's on your Desktop) and click the Insert Image button.
⌘ Shift 4 and then pressing the space bar captures the frontmost window.
⌘ Shift 3 captures the entire screen.
Drag the screenshot to the Trash after you post your reply.

Starting up in black console screen

My PB has just started booting up into a black screen. I get the grey Apple logo then the start-up progress bar - which seems a little quicker than usual - and then after a few moments of a blank blue screen, it goes to a black screen with the following text:
Darwin/BSD (localhost) (console)
login: Feb20 18:44:14 localhost mdsyncServer[190]: Could not create DiskArb session or approval session.
Feb 20 18:47:15 localhost mDNSReopsnser: mDNSPlatformSendUDP sendto failed to send packet on interfaceID 01808E00 lo0/4 to 224.0.0.251:5353 skt 9error -1 errno 65 (no route to host) 2219651482
This last section appears again after a few minutes...having tried again to do whatever it's trying to do.
I've tried to boot from the original OS disk but no joy. I've connected to my other PB in target disk mode and was able to see the HD. I then ran Disk Utility which showed up some errors:
Verifying volume “HD”
Checking HFS Plus volume.
Checking Extents Overflow file.
Checking Catalog file.
Checking multi-linked files.
Checking Catalog hierarchy.

Disk Utility stopped verifying “HD” because the following error was encountered:
The underlying task reported failure on exit
1 HFS volume checked
Volume needs repair
I repaired the disk, verified it again and it came back free of errors.
I then tried the Hardware Test disk. Having selected the Test button and the right hand arrow I was left with a screen with the OSX folder and the folder with question mark alternating merrily.
I then tried the safe mode start-up without the Hardware Test disk and, having selected the OSX icon, went through the start-up screen with progress bar to the blank blue screen...and then to the black console screen.
The text on the black screen is slightly different now:
Darwin/BSD (andrews-powerb) (console)
login:
I'm all out of options now as I have no idea what to do past this stage. What's my login etc.
Is this an OS problem or a HD problem? Any thoughts anyone?
Thank you in advance of your replies.

Check out the information from Mike Coniff in this discussion topic for a possible solution. If you are unable to succeed then you will have to reinstall OS X. If the drive is OK you can do this using Archive and Install which does not erase the hard drive:
How to Perform an Archive and Install
1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior (4.0 for Tiger) and/or TechTool Pro (4.5.2 for Tiger) to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

Audigy 4 gives blue screen during install of drivers on Windows XP SP3

FAudigy 4 gives blue screen during install of drivers on Windows XP SP3! Specs
Asus a8n-sli
GB RAM
6600 GT
Audigy 4
LC Power 550 W PSU
I put in the installation CD that comes with the card. I want to install everything (full install), and mid-install I get a blue screen.
I then uninstalled everything and tried only to install the updated drivers from the website in safe-mode and still a blue screen. Should I get the dump file and send it to Creative?
How do get this card to work like it should? I also have a remote control that came together with the card.
Im currently using the onboard AC97 Realtek ALC850 soundcard.
Whats the whole procedure to make this work? Detailed please. How do I eliminate all traces of the audigy on my PC?

Re: Audigy 4 gives blue screen during install of drivers on Windows XP SP38 Perhaps you'd want to read this old thread of mine about my misadventures with the same exact card you are trying to use. IMHO that card was not worth the time and money I spent on it (even even less the time and money it caused me to spend afterwards to repair the damage it caused.

I5 17''MBP gets blue screen during install windows 7 32 bit

Hello all:
I heard that quite many people get classic windows' "blue screen" during using windows , whatever Windows XP, Vista or 7. But now i face the "blue screen" during install Windows 7, which means I even can not complete installation.
I bought my Macbook Pro i5 17'' one month ago, and I'm trying to install Windows 7 but I face the problem during the installation. After finishing first 4 steps the computer would restart and start to "finish installation", but at this time it gets "blue screen" and shows "error: 0x0000009c" and stuck there. I have to shut down the turn off button and interrupt the installation.
I don't know if there's any one else face this unlucky situation. I searched on the net and it says the problem could be from memory, graphic card (too new), or even overlocking the cpu,whatever it must be the problem of hardware. I thought it might be the problem of compatible.
If anyone knows how to deal with this problem??!! I do need to use some software under Windows system!

It is good to see that it is indeed a USB2.
The support software on the USB is used in the Pre-boot environment setup and provides drivers for Apple specific hardware, GPU, BT, Mouse, etc. You can verify that by looking at the USB contents. The DVD contains generic drivers when hardware is not recognized as defaults to use. Apple does enough 'secret sauce' to make them different. The following does not explicitly state the USB2 need when using the DVD Installer and mentions W8 (not W7).
From Boot Camp: Creating an ISO image from a Windows installation DVD - Apple Support
Insert a blank USB 2 flash drive that is a least 16GB in size into a USB port on the computer. Boot Camp Assistant uses this drive to store the Windows 8 install media and support drivers during installation of Windows.
Note: This flash drive needs to be formatted for the FAT32 file system and must use the Master Boot Record partitioning scheme. Use Disk Utility to check the format of the flash drive before proceeding, and partition or erase the flash drive if necessary.
I suspect the GPU is not getting the correct driver and the Installer fails. The Generic VGA should work. From the OS X side, can you see files in your BC volume? If yes, can you look for logs in the BC volume at the following locations.
./Windows/Inf/setupapi.dev.log
./Windows/Inf/setupapi.offline.log
./Windows/Inf/setupapi.setup.log

Occasionally flickering iMac screen after installing Yosemite

Occasionally flickering iMac ()intel) screen after installing Yosemite. Cannot yet specify when the flickering occurs, but it cover large sections of the screen. Absolutely annoying.

I also have this issue but only below 6 screen illumination steps (bars)
This flickering issue is active after waking up from sleep os screen sleep and if I increase the screen light to a setting higher than 6 screen step for a wile (30 seconds or so) and the reduce the light to a level below 6 steps it usually holds on without flickering.
This happens on an late 2009 iMac with nvidia card running OS X 10.10 and apple later upgrades but not (until now) on another same age and OS X version iMac I have but instead of the nvidia card it has an ATI
Question:
Has anyone tried to use the Mavericks nvidia graphic card driver with Yosemite?

Compaq Proliant 1600 Server Install

Hi!
I'm working on setting up a Compaq Proliant 1600 server. . .I've made a bit of progress thanks to a few posts on the forum.
I've bugged everyone on the irc channel so now its time to ask here :oops:
Basically, I can't get the Arch install to recognize the scsi drives (2) I've got...
What I've done:
1. Loaded all the modules (cpqarray etc...)
2. In '/dev' I did 'mkdir ida'
3. Next I 'mknod /dev/ida/c0d0p1 b 72 1' <---this should be my swap
4. Then I 'mknod /dev/ida/c0d0p2 b 72 2' <-----this is my /
Now I'm not sure what to do...
Since I've been able to partition the drives the next step seems to be to
set filesystem mountpoints, right? The Arch install doesn't recognize the drives at all - It simply says "NONE".
So, if anyone has any tips or advice I'd appreciate it
I'm setting this server up for my school's website - and thought I'd go with Arch. . .
Thanks!
nedson

It's all about loading the right modules. With < 0.7 ISO's you can modprobe cpqarray. Later ISO's don't have cpqarray anymore, they use cciss.
Some threads you'll want to read:

Solaris 10 x86 console screen resolution and blank console after exiting X

Hello,
At some point my Solaris 10 machine stopped showing the console after leaving Xorg for the console login. I know the console is active because I can blindly pass the shutdown or other command and it will respond, or after waiting a few minutes will bring the GUI login back. I can see the console before the GUI login while booting but not after. I have a dual output Nvidia 6200 on a 22" LCD running Solaris 10 using the latest Nvidia drivers. I would also like to know if it possible to set the console screen resolution somehow either from the shell or from grub? I have been searching the internet for weeks about this and am unable to find a solution.
TIA,
Brett

After doing even more searching, it looks as if this is an issue with Nvidias drivers. At least similar issues on Linux and FreeBSD that I have seen. Anyone know of a fix other than reverting to much older drivers? Still cannot find any info on setting the console screen resolution, though I can't even see it at the moment unless I refrain from ever starting X again. There has to something similar to vga= that's used in Linux. Anyone?
Brett

My macbook air is stuck at the "installing software updated" screen while installing update for the osX. What should I do?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
If your Mac has been installing software updates for a long time, Software Update is probably frozen. Hold the Power button until your MacBook Air turns off, and turn it on again. OS X should start up.

Did you solve a Cisco Connect install to Windows 7 Home Premium bluescreen issue?

I've used a number of LinkSys devices in the past, and have been generally happy with them. However, I recommended my brother-in-law try the E-series, and he purchased an E2500, with a 1.0.0 Cisco Connect version.
With the 1.0.0 CD and with the 1.3.x version from the website, he blue-screens around 10% every time. Now we live some distance apart, so I don't want to be his regular tech support, but I don't want to leave him hanging either.
Before I start trying to troubleshoot the problem, have any of you seen a blue-screen issue like this, and then find the problem? I suspect some software service or driver issue, but I need some probable causes before I dive into this over the phone. He's not a wirehead, and I want to minimize our time spent/wasted on this if possible. Any info I can get will be welcomed.

Yes, it blue-screens while installing the Cisco Connect software, at around 10% completion. Router was cabled in to both the DSL modem and the desktop, and the default configuration was permitting wired access to the internet. The router was at the default configuration when trying this. The install was attempted with both the CD and the latest version downloaded from the Cisco site as of yesterday. The login credentials were still default, and that should be the only reasonable reason the Cisco Connect software wouldn't access the device. Any other reason sounds like poor software coding. There is no other computer to use to run the Cisco Connect software.
