Just recently I tried to reboot my machine at home: a Mandrake 10.0 box running a 2.4 kernel (so my Ihug Ultra thingie will work.)
First of all I got problems with the hard disk partitions not being recognised.
So I then changed my fstab to point at /dev/ide/target0.... instead of /dev/hdb5 kind of thing. This seemed to fix my hard disc problem... however now I'm getting a sequence of:
INIT: Id "X" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes
where X is a number between 1 and 6
The sequence ends with : INIT: no more processes in this runlevel
then hangs.
I have looked at Google and found that there may be some corruption of my inittab or something like that.
I have booted with Knoppix and checked the filesystems and they seem ok.
What I wanted to ask was is there any problems that anybody has heard of with k3b running with an old (2.4) kernel?
The reason I'm asking is that the problem appeared to be just after I tried to kill K3B. X went haywire and the screen went blank then dropped me out to a tty.
Any help appreciated.
