Lunar-Linux team From duncan.gibson at xs4all.nl Thu May 13 13:48:07 2010 From: duncan.gibson at xs4all.nl (Duncan Gibson) Date: Thu, 13 May 2010 13:48:07 +0200 Subject: lin linux-2.6 and lilo wierdness Message-ID: <083eb79f707fb31ae6db806be4474a13.squirrel@webmail.xs4all.nl> I normally rebuild and reboot into the latest kernel pretty soon after it is available in moonbase. Today, I saw that the 2.6.33.4 kernel was there, and decided to rebuild. This was part of a larger update, so I went away to do something else, and when I came back and saw that the everything had finished, I rebooted. Strange, the lilo menu didn't offer 2.6.33.4, nor 2.6.33.3. The top entry and hence the default was 2.6.33.2. OK, rebooted to that instead. Ran lin linux-2.6 again. It built and got to the boot loader question: linux-2.6: Edit lilo configuration manually ? [n] Warning: LBA32 addressing assumed Added 2.6.33.4-i686 * Fatal: open /boot/2.6.33.4-i686.old: No such file or directory When I rebooted, I still didn't have the 2.6.33.3 or 4 kernel options, and so had to go with 2.6.33.2 again. To cut a long story short, to get this to build, I had to edit lilo.conf to remove the 2.6.33.4 and 2.6.33.4-old options, removed the 2.6.33.4 files and directories from /boot and /lib/modules, and ran 'lin linux-2.6' again. This time the lilo configuration went without problem, and I could reboot to the new kernel. If I rebuild the kernel again using 'lin linux-2.6' I again get the Fatal error from the lilo configuration, but as I already have 2.6.33.4 in the boot menu, it's not quite as important. But then the question is whether I am running the old 2.6.33.4 configuration or the new one. I probably triggered this in the first place in the update from 2.6.33.2 to 2.6.33.3 because I have an NVIDIA card, so I have to lrm and re-lin the NVIDIA module after rebooting to the new kernel. I guess that I must have rebuilt the kernel twice after finding that NVIDIA wasn't loaded, but I just don't remember. I don't know whether this is a bug or a feature, but it's not obvious. It might just bite someone else who rebuilds their kernels more than once.
