Upgraded kernel and cant boot now

So yesterday I upgraded udev and the kernel. Now when I boot arch cant activate swap and when it trys to run a FS check it fails. I read somthing on changing /dev/discs/disc0/part3 to /dev/hda3. How do I do this. I looked at Grub and it is set to /dev/hda3. After the FS check fails it let me into my filesystem but for Read Only. Can anyone help ?

that may well be because you haven't a matching entry for the root= append parameter to the kernel in fstab. that's why it only mounts you root-fs in ro. see if removing "ro" from the append parameters in menu.lst helps, if so, cat /proc/partitions to find out about your partition layout. then modify menu.lst and/or fstab according to that.
good luck!

    can any one help me out here, tomorrow I am going to boot it into target disk mode and install from a G5 onto the powerbooks HD doing a CLEAN install and then I am going to try booting it from a DVD and doing another CLEAN intstall just cause I dont trust a firewire install for some reason. I would like to avoid all this mess if possible. ANY HELP PLEASE, either respond or email me tend0 at mac dot com. thanks

    haha oh man thanks for startin slow with me, but we are passed that tested RAM, start up items, prefs, tried makin a new user account, as I stated before I can not boot from a DVD/CD.. that was one of the problems so I cant run anything that involves tageting the main HDD while its mounted. I have also repaired perms, ran fsck, tried booting up DiskWarrior(didnt boot from the CD), etc. if any one knows this perticular kernel panic string and can point out what the conflict is I can resolve it but other than that I have ran the run of the mill check to see if everything is in order procedure again and again.

  • I have installed windows on the new NTFS partician and cant boot  it back to mac

    I have installed windows on the new NTFS partician and cant boot  it back to mac. I dont think I loaded the bootcamp for windows properly now it is stuck in Windows with no bootcamp icon

    Restart Windows, hold down the option key.
    If you have a valid OSX install, the drive should appear. Choose the OSX partition and continue.

  • Added third partition and cant boot into Windows.

    So I had windows 8.1 bootcamped, and being the idiot i am, created a third partition, messing up my bootcamp. I am unable to boot into Windows now. I suspect my mbr and gpt are out of sync, but do not know how to fix this. By the way, both disk utility and finder show that the bootcamp partition is there, but there is not option to boot into it on the boot selection menu thingy.

    Back up your data. Erase then format the drive. Reinstall OSX and Windows.

  • Upgrade kernel beyond not booting anymore

    upgraded with pacman -Syu without paying much attention to the output I guess. I had the beyond kernel. After a reboot I get the following error:

  • T61-Fan Error on startup and cant boot in system

    after Thinkpad logo, 2 short 'Bee' sound and 'fan error' message appears on the top left screen, then 1 'Bee' sound, laptop shut down. Althought can boot in system by pressing Esc when 'fan error' appears, but dont know this will damage something like circus or chips.
    Anyone have same problem and solved it? Should I change the fan, and which fan (video car fan or cpu fan) is this problem about. I have a limited warranty dont know if the fan is included.
    Thanks

    Fan is covered by warranty, when fan stops spinning then it would usually cause this error.

  • Dual booting of 32 and 64 bit arch, how to upgrade kernel?

    Hi all,
    I have set up a concurrent 32 and 64 bit arch install on my system. I partitioned my system to have 5 partitions:
    boot
    32bit root
    64bit root
    swap
    home
    (64 bit root and home in an extended partition)
    I renamed the 64 bit kernel files in /boot to
    kernel26_64.img
    kernel26-fallback_64.img
    System_64.map26
    vmlinuz26_64
    the 32 bit kernel files have their 'normal' names
    kernel26.img
    kernel26-fallback.img
    System.map26
    vmlinuz26
    Then I changed grubs menu.lst accordingly to either boot the 32 or 64 bit installation, both using same swap and home partition. This works by now. But if I want to upgrade my kernel through pacman, the 64 bit install will overwrite the 32bit kernel files because it generates the 'normal' filenames which belong to the 32bit installation. Is there a way to tell mkinitcpio to build files with a *_64 at the end while run by pacman -Syu?
    Does anybody see other caveats? Are there other solutions to archieve my goal?

    You can change the name of the initcpio images in /etc/mkinitcpio.d/kernel26.preset.  To change the name of the kernel itself (vmlinuz26), you'll have to compile your own kernel.  Well, not quite; this untested PKGBUILD I whipped up just repackages the official 64-bit kernel, with important names changed:
    #pkgname=kernel26 # Build stock -ARCH kernel
    pkgname=kernel26-64 # Build kernel with a different name
    _kernelname=${pkgname#kernel26}
    _basekernel=2.6.31

  • How do I get out of kernel panic?  kernel panic upon boot.  I did that hard drive cleanup and reinstalled Lion.  What about memory?  Anyone think I need to upgrade my memory?  I have 8gig.

    I get kernel paic upon boot.  I did that hard drive cleanup and reinstalled Lion.  What about memory?  Anyone think I need to upgrade my memory?  I have 8 G of upgraded RAM. (20 inch iMac core 2 duo)

    If you're able to boot, launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ If you’re running Mac OS X 10.7 or later, open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the page that opens.
    Select the most recent panic log under System Diagnostic Reports. Post the contents — the text, please, not a screenshot. For privacy’s sake, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header and body of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don't post "shutdownStall" or "hang" reports.
    If you can't boot in the usual way, try a safe boot. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
    Be sure your Mac is shut down.
    Press the power button.
    Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
    Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
    During startup, you’ll see a progress bar, and then the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, you can’t boot in safe mode.

  • Upgraded libx*** and now i cant start firefox [Solved]

    Well i did a pacman -Syu , noticed lots of x libs upgrading and then rebooted , now i cant start firefox , this is the terminal output
    The program 'firefox-bin' received an X Window System error.
    This probably reflects a bug in the program.
    The error was 'BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)'.
    (Details: serial 1033 error_code 1 request_code 154 minor_code 2)
    (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
    that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
    To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
    option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
    backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
    Any ideas how to fix this ??

  • V570 dead hard drive and now cant boot past BIOS welcome screen

    Bought my Lenovo laptop in December, 2011.  My hard drive (750g Western Digital) died last week. I was able to save some of my files but recovery partition and everything else is gone. Hard drive is unreadable when I insert in another machine or using an external USB casing.
    I have a spare hard drive but now when I install that and try to boot, laptop does not go beyond the Phoenix BIOS screen. I tried the CMOS battery reset action (unplugging the CMOS battery etc) but no luck. Tried booting then pressing F keys but it just says please wait and stays there.
    Someone please help. I really liked this laptop and cant believe the hard drive conked out after only 6 months of use.

    not encouraging.  I'd certainly re-seat the RAM and even go as far as testing it with MemTest86, if you have more than one module test them individually for at lest 3 passes each - keep plenty of coffee or whatever at hand.
    Pulling the CMOS should at least provoke a date and time error at post hopefully enabling you to then enter BIOS, it will also automatically select BIOS defaults for you - not a bad thing.
    If all else fails I would put the original drive in the system and call service as OKR-MAN previously suggested, something is definitely not right.

  • Upgraded to ATI 4870 on Mac Pro and cant enter Boot Camp

    Hi!
    I have just received the ATI Radeon 4870 for my Mac Pro (Early 2008)and have upgraded my Leopard to 10.5.7 and works fine on the Mac side. When I reboot and hold the command key I can see my MAC and my BOOT CAMP 2 options as always before. When I click on boot camp I get a white screen with a black frome around it and there is NO hard disk activity and nothing happens no matter how long I leave the computer alone. Before I had no problem booting into my boot camp loaded with vista 64 bit. I have another partition with parallels and that is fine but not this boot camp partition.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks for all your time!

    I guess you can't boot Safe Mode.
    I would have uninstalled the graphics drivers first, as part of preparing to swap cards. Assume you had.... before this and the proper ATI (or Nvidia) drivers. Put back in the original card.... or are you trying to use both? Again, not clear from your comments.
    You can't use ATI and Nvidia in Windows concurrently, don't know why but seems to be rule that they won't be compatible.
    You have another - physical - native Windows partition? or a Parallels VM that is not using a native (Boot Camp) partition, which works.
