I have confirmed this behavior on a second computer with an e100 NIC. Booting stopped on the second computer when trying to start rhgb. Graphical booting on computer 1 is turned off. Both computers successfully entered run level 5 and started X with this kernel. *** Bug 178287 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Yup, same for me. Maybe this is too obvious to be worth adding, but booting selinux=0 restores all to life and health. Bill This problem is still present in kernel-2.6.15-1.2003_FC4. And the same is true for kernel-2.6.15-1.2004_FC4. In case you're curious, the last working kernel for me was kernel-2.6.15-1.1824_FC4 and I have fallen back to it once again. This is a mass-update to all currently open kernel bugs. A new kernel update has been released (Version: 2.6.15-1.1830_FC4) based upon a new upstream kernel release. Please retest against this new kernel, as a large number of patches go into each upstream release, possibly including changes that may address this problem. This bug has been placed in NEEDINFO_REPORTER state. Due to the large volume of inactive bugs in bugzilla, if this bug is still in this state in two weeks time, it will be closed. Should this bug still be relevant after this period, the reporter can reopen the bug at any time. Any other users on the Cc: list of this bug can request that the bug be reopened by adding a comment to the bug. If this bug is a problem preventing you from installing the release this version is filed against, please see bug 169613. Thank you. The 2.6.15-1.1830_FC4 kernel resolves this problem. Note that, because of the smaller release number, I had to uninstall the 2000 series kernels (and kernel-devel's) in order to get yum to install this kernel. Of course this won't be a problem for people who aren't testing the DaveJ kernels. glitch of the mass-update script. thanks. I'll do another 200x series kernel based on 2.6.16rc2 later today. While waiting for the 200x kernel, I tested 2.6.15-1.1830_FC4.netdev.9(.i686) on my system with the 8139too network card. The network is half broken - I can ssh out, use Firefox and ntpd appears to synchronize with outside servers, but I can't ssh in or access the Apache Web server. Turning off iptables and putting SELinux into permissive mode has no effect. And aureport doesn't show any AVC messages. (So this is different from this bug as originally reported.) I don't see this behavior (comment #9) for 2.6.15-1.1830_FC4.netdev.9 on my other system with the e100 network card. The problem must be driver specific. This problem is fixed with kernel-2.6.15-1.2005_FC4. -1.2005 doesn't solve this for me. This problem appears to still be present in 2.6.17-2142_FC4. When I try to ping 127.0.0.1 or 192.168.0.1 I get: ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted If I disable SELinux (setenforce 0) network access returns. Further details http://forums.devshed.com/linux-help-33/no-network-access-378910.html [This comment added as part of a mass-update to all open FC4 kernel bugs] FC4 has now transitioned to the Fedora legacy project, which will continue to release security related updates for the kernel. As this bug is not security related, it is unlikely to be fixed in an update for FC4, and has been migrated to FC5. Please retest with Fedora Core 5. Thank you. A new kernel update has been released (Version: 2.6.18-1.2200.fc5) based upon a new upstream kernel release. Please retest against this new kernel, as a large number of patches go into each upstream release, possibly including changes that may address this problem. This bug has been placed in NEEDINFO state. Due to the large volume of inactive bugs in bugzilla, if this bug is still in this state in two weeks time, it will be closed. Should this bug still be relevant after this period, the reporter can reopen the bug at any time. Any other users on the Cc: list of this bug can request that the bug be reopened by adding a comment to the bug. In the last few updates, some users upgrading from FC4->FC5 have reported that installing a kernel update has left their systems unbootable. If you have been affected by this problem please check you only have one version of device-mapper & lvm2 installed. See bug 207474 for further details. If this bug is a problem preventing you from installing the release this version is filed against, please see bug 169613. If this bug has been fixed, but you are now experiencing a different problem, please file a separate bug for the new problem. Thank you. (this is a mass-close to kernel bugs in NEEDINFO state) As indicated previously there has been no update on the progress of this bug therefore I am closing it as INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Please re-open if the issue still occurs for you and I will try to assist in its resolution. Thank you for taking the time to report the initial bug. If you believe that this bug was closed in error, please feel free to reopen this bug. |
