I accidently told the debconf tool to use the uk sun type 5 keyboard during install (of latest debian unstable today) on a Sun Ultra10.
This has caused the dpkg --configure of console-common to fail with the following error: Setting up console-common (0.7.3) ... Looking for keymap to install: sunt5-uk /usr/sbin/install-keymap: line -32: 269 Killed loadkeys -q sunt5-uk dpkg: error processing console-common (--configure): subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 137 dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of console-tools: console-tools depends on console-common; however: Package console-common is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing console-tools (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of console-data: console-data depends on console-common (>= 0.7.3); however: Package console-common is not configured yet. dpkg: error processing console-data (--configure): dependency problems - leaving unconfigured ok, don't know why loadkeys is failing, but if I try it again, I get a kernel panic (taken from the logs as I don't have a serial console hooked up right now): Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: \|/ ____ \|/ Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: "@'/ .. \`@" Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: /_| \__/ |_\ Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: \__U_/ Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: loadkeys(302): Oops Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: TSTATE: 0000000011f09601 TPC: 000000000045b268 TNPC: 000000000045b26c Y: 05000000 Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: g0: fffff8003ce6f9e0 g1: 0000000000000000 g2: 00000021ffbda6e0 g3: 000007fff0639aa0 Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: g4: fffff80000000000 g5: 0000000000000018 g6: fffff8003ce6c000 g7: 0000000000000010 Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: o0: 00000000006d6800 o1: fffff80010328070 o2: 0000000010000000 o3: 0000000000611788 Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: o4: 0000000000000000 o5: 0000000000639aa0 sp: fffff8003ce6f1c1 ret_pc: 00000000004bd5b4 Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: l0: 0000000000000100 l1: fffff8003ec86ac0 l2: 0000000000639b39 l3: 0000000000639b39 Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: l4: 00000000000000f0 l5: 0000000000611400 l6: 0000000000611400 l7: 0000000000611400 Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: i0: 0000000000000100 i1: 0000000000611400 i2: 0000000000000001 i3: 0000000000000000 Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: i4: 0000000000611400 i5: fffffffffffff000 i6: fffff8003ce6f4a1 i7: 00000000004b4918 Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: Caller[00000000004b4918] Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: Caller[0000000000475220] Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: Caller[0000000000437dfc] Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: Caller[0000000000410934] Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: Caller[0000000000012c68] Aug 7 16:31:54 debian kernel: Instruction DUMP: d85a4002 86234004 8620c00a <d6032018> 8730f00d 8528f004 84008003 8528b003 92024002 I don't think loadkeys should cause the kernel to panic and I would run ksymoops over this, but it seems the System.map from the debian kernel (2.4.7) is not installed under /boot/System.map-2.4.7 where it is looking for it (is this a bug in the package?). So, first off, how do I get the configure of console-common to not want to load sunt5-uk? I have tried running "install-keymap NONE" but this does not work... Secondly, how do I stop this from panic'ing? thanks, -tduffy
