I have done some updates on my computer and now, at start-up, the script rc.sysinit tries to access to several tty, but the permission is denied. Afterwards, still during booting, IPMI fails. Any ideas?
That error was coming up on boxes running cooker when Mandrake switched the default de vice manager from devfs to udev. You are a bad boy running cooker stuff and posting to the newbie list. Seriously though, are you running cooker or a 10.1 beta. if yes, you might want to check the cooker mailing list archives because I believe this was explained over there.
Greg,
I apologize if I should not post my question in this list. I am really a newbie, as I do not know even whether I am running a cooker version or not. I have indeed done some updates from cooker, likewise I download from there the latest version of the software I use. All updates that I have done were suggested by MandrakeUpdate. I will have a look at cooker mailing list.
Regards,
Paul
Paul,
It is really not a good idea to try to mix packages from cooker with packages from official - cooker packages are by their very nature 'unstable' and, although they may be the 'latest' version they are not necessarily compatible with 10 official - as you have found :-(
I suggest you go into Mandrake Control Centre - Software Management - Media Manager and delete all your sources except the CDs, then go here:
http://www.urpmi.org/easyurpmi
Select 10 official in Section 1
Select all possible sources in Section 2, and mark the box at the bottom to use the compressed index
Open a root terminal and use copy/paste to transfer the easyurpmi output to the terminal, one medium at a time
You will then have the correct sources set up for your system, and you can then use either urpmi (from a terminal) or Mandrake Control Centre - Software Management - Updates section to get the right updates.
