nvsetenv boot-device ofpath /dev/sdb3 Also can you grab a modified copy of ofpath from http://people.redhat.com/pnasrat/ofpath and test that version too can you also mkdir /mnt/spare mount -o ro -t hfs /dev/sdb2 /mnt/spare grab ofboot.b off there and attach to this bug, then umount. Also attaching /proc/device-tree would help Created attachment 124271 [details]
fc4 pmg5 device-tree
#1
nvsetenv, unknown word, HERE= ffa27b78
ofpath, unknown word, HERE= ffa27b78
rescue mode:
cp /mnt/usbdisk/ofpath /mnt/sysimage/sbin/ofpath
exit = reboot
still the same.
i can select the "linux-disk-icon" after booting with "alt"
yaboot gives me "l""x""c"...
l == back to openfirmware where i can select the "macosx" "linux" "cd" icons
#2
i can not mount sdb2 in rescue-mode == unknown device
i can not mount sdb2 in `chroot /nmnt/sysimage` == unknown filesystem "hfs"
`ls /proc/device-tree/` is this what you mean?
nvsetenv and ofpath are commands within linux not within OF. please execute ofpath in the chroot. tar czvf /tmp/device-tree.tar.gz /proc/device-tree Created attachment 124277 [details]

# nvsetup boot-device
boot-device=/k2-sata2@0/disk@0:2,\\:tbxi
# ofpath /dev/sdb3
/ht@0,f2000000,pci@5/k2-sata-root@c/k2-sata@1/disk@0:3
# exit
still the same problem.
OK can you replace the original /sbin/ofpath with the newer copy from my people page, ensure it is chmod 755. Then run ybin -v, and reboot. Does that fix it? a new rawhide http install 20060208 ~23:00 gmt (fc5t3-) the same here, it is not bootable after the install. your new "ofpath" and "ybin" are necessary, see the chronlogical steps. 1. rescue ybin -v == not bootable 2. rescue your new ofpath == not bootable 3. rescue ybin -v == is bootable is the new ofpath in fc5t3 or is it to late? I'm trying to get data on if the patch is correct. Your confirmation is helpful, we should be able to get it into t3. Fixed in yaboot 1.3.13-0.17 |
