Hi, Thanks a lot for so many helpful responses. The fix is pretty straight: just mount /dev/pts again at the chrooted %post environment where my original sshd fires up from. One command 'Mount -t devpts -o rw,gid=5,mode=620 devpts /dev/pts' or just a bare 'mount /dev/pts' command fix the problem since the devpts entry is in fstab already. I also hacked image stage2.img to

Hi, I tried to make kickstart environment a little bit more charming by firing up openssh daemon in the limited environment. I edited/checked a bunch of files and almost succeeded but still not. I can reach the machine to run a command like 'ssh -x <kickstartClient> <command>' and it does work for %pre and both chroot and non-chroot %post sections, in fact, you can run a

Hi, Just got Fedora FC1 vanilla 2.4.25kernel+libata8patch booting problems, FC1 complains that it can not automatically find&found partitions specified with "LABEL=" in /etc/fstab, and then falls me into repair mode. In the repair mode I can mount it manually without any problems. More interesting are: 1) I have several partitions specified with "LABEL=*" in

Hi, Any one know how the Centos 5 kickstart initrd.img was built? I'll be very appreciated if any light can be shed on this topic. The basic problem to be solved here is: how to build a custom vmlinuz+initrd.img for Centos 5 kickstart with my own custom built kernel? I am not sure mkinitrd is the right tool for this purpose? If do, which are the modules I should include with

Hi, Marc, Thanks for your help! a "ls -alFs" command shows the difference, Theodore Ts'o talked about it at https://listman.redhat.com/archives/ext3-users/2003-January/msg00008.html. Both File system and "/bin/ls" contains no bugs, my knowledge databse in my mind got lots of ""Bugs" instead. :) vista104 /0 > ls -alF total 211233264 drwxrwxr-t 5

Sorry that I wrote in german : Ich benutze asterisk mit dem zaphfc Treiber. Jetzt hab ich folgendes Problem, habe 2 ISDN-Telefone angeschlossen. zaphfc im nt-mode. Anrufe von ausserhalb per sip (sipgate.de) kommen an. Wenn ich aber intern zwischen den zwei Telefonen (Ascom Eurit 30) sprechen m?chte geht das nur wie folgt : Erst die Nebenstelle w?hlen und dann den H?rer am Telefon abnehmen.

Hi, Stephen and Jeff, Thanks. But the problem got debugged&fixed, the answer was post on fedora-list about 2 weeks ago. The problem is: the /etc/blkid.tab file works as an old unappropriate disk partitions cache for fsck|blkid commands when stystem image is installed to a different arch (scsi->ide) machine, the old cache will mislead fsck|blkid at the first run and only the first run,

Hi, Theodore, Thanks for your tests. But I got the problem and got it FIXED by flushing out the contents of /etc/blkid.tab before cloned clients reboot. I'm using the e2fsprogs-1.34-1 comes with Fedora Core 1. hello06.alexa.com root 135% rpm -qf /sbin/fsck e2fsprogs-1.34-1 hello06.alexa.com root 136% and the original contents in /etc/blkid.tab are attaching below, while my

Hi, all, I got machines running continuously for long time, but then the underlying ext3 file systems becomes quite heavily fragmented (94% non-contiguous). We just don't have a chance to shutdown the machines since they are always busy.. I tried the defrag 0.70 version comes with e2fsprog package and standalone 0.73 packages, but neither help me since the defrag tool can not handle ext3.

Hi, I have an ext3 file system question for a while: How to obtain failed file (inode) from LBA section reported by Linux kernel? The following lines are a simple example: ...

Hi, Anyone know if there is a Promise SATA patch for general linux 2.4.2* kernel downloaded from www.kernel.org? It should exist somewhere.. Thanks. --Guolin Cheng

Hi, Has any one tried to merge a custom kernel into vmlinuz/initrd.img for Centos 5 kickstart? Or similar Linux distribution? I am rebuilding a custom kernel from stock kernel source to build some hardware modules into static form, so that the hardware detection sequence can be altered in a hard way. Quick examples are: tg3 drivers will be loaded before e1000, 3w-9xxx be loaded before

Kickstart fails for statically built custom booting kernel, although the custom kernel is built form the same version stock kernel source. My anaconda and kernel source are both of stock versions on Centos 5. At the kickstart 'F3' screen, the following error messages appear: Modules to insert tg3 ... ... ERROR: no network devices in choose network device! ERROR: no network drivers

Hi, all, I "found" a big bug either related with Linux Ext3 file system or "bin/ls" command. The problem is: File system is no more than 220GB, but "/bin/ls" reports holding >370GB data! The system is Redhat 8.0, with a Generic Kernel 2.4.20. Any suggestions are greately appreciated. more information can be available upon requests. The following is the

Hi all, I'm having a strange problem in which a certain box won't boot any kernel newer than 2.6.18-53. I have a kickstart setup that installs a CentOS 5.1 base (which comes with kernel 2.6.18-53), and then I do a "yum update" to 5.3. However, when 2.6.18-164 gets installed, the box is rebooted, and it dumps me in a grub prompt. If I manually enter root, kernel, initrd and

Hi, just out of curiosity: Within a kickstart postinstall script, I tried to do a loop mount, which failed. It turns out that there is no /dev/loop0 (no /dev/loop<x>). After creating it with mknod /dev/loop0 b 7 0 everything works fine. Now this script executes in the chroot system. This is the system on the hd. A plain chroot system should not have any /dev or /proc mounted. But

Hi, I encounter a problem to install FC3 on one of our machine, the machine has two SATA hard drives connected directly to motherboard which will use the ata_piix kernel module, and two other SATA hard drives connected through a Promise SATA card which is driven by sata_promise kernel module. The problem is: FC3 anaconda loads sata_promise module before ata_piix module by default, and this

Hi, I got a problem to recover data from Fedora core 1 hosts when hard drives fail.
