What causes this and how do I fix it? top: failed /proc/stat read
Also - what am I doing wrong with initrd? The 2.4.18 kernel that comes with the woody net-boot works fine, but has no initrd. Every other kernel package I've tried to install uses initrd and hangs at the 'remapping the kernel' message. Here's my silo.conf file: ---- partition=2 root=/dev/sda2 timeout=100 default=linux image=2/vmlinuz.old label=linux.old read-only image=2/vmlinuz initrd=2/initrd.img label=linux read-write ---- And here's a listing from root (cut for relevant parts): ---- drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 4096 Jul 16 15:22 initrd lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 36 Jul 24 11:45 initrd.img -> boot/initrd.img-2.4.27-2-sparc64-smp lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 33 Jul 24 11:45 vmlinuz -> boot/vmlinuz-2.4.27-2-sparc64-smp lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Jul 16 15:19 vmlinuz.old -> boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-sun4u ---- I've checked to see if things are as similar as possible to my home linux box which boots from initrd images just fine - and I'm stumped. Any ideas? <EOL> Tib -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
