I think you missed the smiley :) 's in those comments.. your bug is the same as that one. The boot image Arjan references in that bug should work fine for you. apologies for any unintended offence. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 121819 *** shoot, my bad... I could have sworn I mentioned that Arjan's boot iso does NOT work on the P4PE board... same infinate reboot as all the others. I had said I would try it that night and when it didn't work, I just went into rebuilding the FC2 kernel and then forgot to mention the new boot iso didn't work. Can you un-duplicate this bug? no, i saw the smiley... that is why i din't fly off and frag you for your comment :))) it's all good, man... like, peace love and linux. hmm, if the updated iso doesn't work, we're going to have to go through the same debugging procedure again, as it could be a completely differnet place that it's dying. Try the procedure mentioned in the other bug with the for (;;); if you get stuck, feel free to ask for help. Ok, weddings done, pool opened, kids ball season ended... back to figuring this out... Ok, what I did was installed the source package from FC2 (on my FC1 machine with the P4PE board), compiled WITHOUT the for (;;); and rebooted... it hangs at "Freeing unused kernel memory: 156K freed". Then tonite I was reading the fedora-list and read where Dave Jones had mentioned to use vdso=0 for FC1 when using the FC2 kernels... that allowed the kernel to boot completely... I am using it right now in fact... so, I am stumped... it should have rebooted at some point., but it didn't. Why would the kernel on the iso images not boot and the rebuilt kernel boot? Actually, I don't even know if it is the kernel on the iso's because I never see anything... as soon as the cd is recognized the machine reboots. The CD's I am using where used to install FC2 on my laptop and worked fine so I know it isn't a media problem. I am stumped. What should I try next? will attach /var/log/dmesg Created attachment 100856 [details]
/var/log/dmesg from booting FC2 kernel in FC1 on P4PE
Fedora Core 2 has now reached end of life, and no further updates will be provided by Red Hat. The Fedora legacy project will be producing further kernel updates for security problems only. If this bug has not been fixed in the latest Fedora Core 2 update kernel, please try to reproduce it under Fedora Core 3, and reopen if necessary, changing the product version accordingly. Thank you. |
