Description of problem: I just upgraded from Fedora Core 1 to Fedora Core 2. After the first reboot, Fedora Core was no longer among the options offered by GRUB! Booting from the rescue CD and looking at upgrade.log, I saw that the installation of kernel-2.6.5-1.358.i686.rpm had failed with the following error: No module tmscsim found for kernel 2.6.5-1.358, aborting. With a little help from Google, I found that this was SCSI controller-related, so I was able to regain my system by removing my SCSI controller, which was fortunately unused, and reinstalling the kernel. However, I am sure that this is a showstopper for anyone who is even more clueless than me, or happen to need their SCSI controller! Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.5-1.358 How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install a DAWICONTROL DC-2974 PCI (or similar, presumably--see notes) SCSI controller on a system running Fedora Core 1. 2. Upgrade to Fedora Core 2. Actual results: Mkinitrd fails during the post-install phase with the message mentioned above, and grub.conf is not updated to boot the new kernel. Expected results: Mkinitrd should succeed, and grub.conf should be properly updated. Additional info: By editing grub.conf by hand, I was able to boot into the system without removing the SCSI controller. When I tried to reinstall the kernel RPM by hand, I got the same error. Ditto for running mkinitrd by hand. This is why I claim that this is "always" reproducible. The controller is a DAWICONTROL DC-2974 PCI, which, according to the manufacturer's web site, uses an AMD AM53C974A chip. My computer is a 2GHz Pentium 4.
