Updated to CentOS 7.4 No wifi. The wifi was using wl-something driver that had third party firmware but it wasn't seen. Attempted to get network with ethernet from the mobo to router but it wouldn't come up. So I rebuilt the wl-whatever kernel module and installed the updated version built against the newer kernel. Now when attempting to boot it gets stuck at "i8042 no

...imes due to an update in VirtualBox, this error might occur. To rectify it, I must re-install VirtualBox's Guest Additions. For this, I require booting in a Single User Mode. 3.

Hello all, I just installed a new beta kernel from Dzickus over at redhat. Rebooting causes this, no matter what kernel I boot from: EXT3-fs error: device dm-0: ext3_check_descriptors: Block bitmap for group 5008 not in group (block 167772160)! EXT3-fs: group dexcriptors corrupted! Mount: error mounting /dev/root on /sysroot as ext3: Invalid argument Setuproot: /moving /dev failed: no such

Yesterday I installed pam_shield and followed the testing suggested and thought all was well. today I find that I cannot get to my email account, I can login via ssh okay (uses keys) but su and sudo give segmentation faults. I am guessing due to the pam module causing a problem. As I cannot do remote login as root and sudo and su use pam I appear to have locked myself out. Any words of wisdom

Everyone, I installed a sata drive on a SuperMicro with SCSI drives. No problem with the installation. Everything went as expected as the os recognized the drive and assigned /dev/sdc to the new 300 gig Seagate drive. I had planned to use this drive for backup tarballs. The drive had been functional for about a week with no problems. Apparently it went out today when I tried to reboot the

My previous question: "can syslinux on a USBstik also boot installations on other USB devices ?" got no proper reply, so I'm now including more background detail. The new problem is that my 32bit partition of ETHOberon, only gives a proper font-size under Debian7:DVDinstaller:rescueMode, since I'm forced to use a laptop, after my previous systems were stolen. Neither gnome nor Xcfe allow changing the 13786x786 resolution, altho' M$ 8.1 does, so it's not a hardware limiation. >From eg. /mnt/sr0/isolinux/rqgtk.cfg == label rescuegui menu label Graphical res...

I actually opened the Virtual Disk Image (.vdi) on http://www.vmxray.com/. I could see that despite my disk being of 100GB only ~65GB was being shown. All the stuff related ot the local user was not visible at all. After I restarted my VM, the OS gets stuck here ( http://i.stack.imgur.com/KVYxV.png). Even after trying the single user login it was stuck there. But the emergency mode worked alright.
