Red Hat Bugzilla – Bug 2582
bad insmod of block device
Last modified: 2017-12-12 14:37:50 EST
tried on notebook pcmcia and pentium PC. at the end of the install over network using http both creating a boot disk and writing lilo boot partition fails: can't access hard drive. Looking at the install log terminal, it fails to insmod the block device. attempting to insmod the block device fails due to different version of block module and kernel, after the 2.2.5-??. force insmod creates works with warning, but the install still attempts insmod and fails.
OK, more details. I tried the install with ftp from my own server. when install tries to create boot disk OR write LILO boot block, we get: * running: /bin/insmod /bin/insmod /modules/loop.o * insmod failed! when I attempt insmod by hand: # /bin/insmod /modules/loop.o /modules/loop.o: kernel-module version mismatch /modules/loop.o was compiled for kernel version 2.2.5-14BOOT while this kernel is version 2.2.5-4BOOT.

I had the same sort of problem during a CD-ROM installation - it's not just network boots. One possibly related item in my case was that I skipped the network interface device configuration (I hadn't checked what my network card device type was and my guess failed). If the loop.o driver is for TCP/IP loopback, that would fit. Being unable to "insmod loop.o" caused failure of both the attempt to build a boot disk and the attempt to build LILO. I got the same version mismatch message when trying it by hand. Looking around, I also found a version 2.2.5-15 of loop.o, but that also gives a version mismatch if I tried to insmod it.
Does this still occur with the latest boot images available from our web site? http://www.redhat.com/corp/support/errata/rh60-errata-general.html#boot_images
Closing bug doe to lack of activity. Reopen if you are still experiencing problem with the install.
I've experienced this bug. I'm using the latest boot images (09-Sept-1999) and installing using the CD-ROM. Tried the install and it failed to make a boot disk and failed to install lilo. I also tried the upgrade method and the installer seg faulted when trying to make the boot disk.
