Kernel Panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 08:03

2005-05-18 Thread Marcelo Melo



Ok, fiz besteira. 
Acabei de instalar o Debian (Woody r3)pela primeira vez, e estava tentando 
atualizar o kernel.

Rodei o comando 
apt-get install kernel-2.4.18-1-k7, e em algum ponto, quando ele falava algo 
sobre o LILO eu respondi sim, e acho que devia ter respondido 
não...
Depois rodei 
/sbin/lilo

Aí veio esse 
problema...

Tenho um Athlon e 
estou rodando o VMWare Workstation 5, com a configuração para um Linux Kernel 
2.4

Já tentei dar boot 
pelo CD e rodar rescbf24 root=dev/sda3 (que é minha partição root) mas não 
consigo, e não consigo dar boot de nenhuma outra maneira.

Alguém poderia me 
indicar um HOWTO ou uma solução para isso? Eu sou totalmente novato em Linux, e 
acho que vou precisar de algo bem detalhado.

Obrigado.

 How do I interpret 03:04? If I boot off the boot floppy, everything is

It's /dev/hda4 (the 3 and 4 are the major and minor numbers; do 'ls -ld
/dev/hda4' to see this).

 fine. Have poked around for answers in the archives, but haven't
 figured it out.

 boot drive:
 hda1 - /boot
 hda2 - swap
 hda3 - /

 second disk:
 hdd1 - /disk1

But you don't have an hda4? What's in your lilo.conf or menu.lst
(for lilo or grub respectively) and what's in fstab?

Bom dia!

Eu também passei por este problema do arquivo initrd. Com a opção
--initrd do make-kpkg é criado um arquivo initrd com o nome
especificado, então tu deve mover ou copiar este arquivo para o / ou
/boot e referencia-lo corretamente no arquivo de configuração do
gerenciador de boot, lilo.conf ou menu.conf, depois é só reinstalar o
gerenciador de boot (não o pacote, mas sim na mbr mesmo) e estará
pronto. O problema meu estava realmente em ter criado o arquivo initrd
mas não estar referenciando ele corretamente.

Espero poder ter ajudado.

Abraços.

RES: Kernel Panic: VFS : Unable to mount root fs -AJUDA!!

Olá,

Obrigado pela ajuda que vocês tem dado!
Creio que eu devo ter tirado suporte ao MINIX por não saber a que se refere
(poderia ser isso o gerador do problema??) Eu deixei somente suporte ao ext3
como built-in...
Em anexo, estou enviando o meu .config para vocês darem uma avaliada :)

Obrigado pela força,

Ja passei por isso. O que acredito ter resolvido
foi saber em qual sistema de arquivos a particao
root e montada  na inicializacao. Umas 3 linhas
acima de Kernel Panic deve dizer qual tipo de fs

Veja o dmesg daqui:
RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block 0
VFS: Mounted root (minix filesystem).
kjournald starting.  Commit interval 5 seconds
EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.
Freeing unused kernel memory: 164k freed


A particao e montada primeiro em minix. E depois
passada para ext3.

Re: Kernel Panic: VFS : Unable to mount root fs -AJUDA!!

2004-09-18 Thread Leonardo Lourenço Crespilho
Oi Arthur.

Isso. Compila ext3 como módulo e ext2 built-in.

  Bom para criaçao do initrd, eu preciso alterar o mkinitrd.conf de
cramfs pra ext2fs ?
Depende. Se o fonte do kernel foi baixado da net (www.kernel.org), daí
precisa usar ext2fs. Se o fonte do kernel foi instalado pelo debian
(deselect install kernel-source-2.x.x) , daí não precisa trocar pois o
kernel da debian já vem com um patch que faz o linux suportar cramfs.

 a sintaxe de comando é mkinitrd -o /DIRETORIO OUTPUT/ARQUIVO OUTPUT ?
Seria sim, mas o debian também tem um comando próprio para gerar essa
imagem:
# make-dpkg --initrd --bzimage make_image modules_image

Estive lendo um pouco sobre o initrd agora, antes de te responder esse
email... reparei que eu não entendi é nada do initrd. rs...
Pra mim isso funcionou com certeza...  agora, o pq funcionou eu não faço a
menor idéia.

Dá uma lida nessas 2 man pages: mkinitrd(8) e mkinitrd(5).

Abraços,
Leonardo Lourenço Crespilho

  Olha... não consegui entender direito, mas tive muitos problemas com
esse
  kernel também. Não só com ele, mas com a família 2.4 e 2.6.   Fiz
diversas
  combinações e constatei, impiricamente, que o problema - pelo menos no
meu
  caso - estava em compilar ext3 no kernel, e não como módulo. Daí eu
  compilei
  como módulo e funcionou normal. Dessa experiência tirei algumas
conclusões,
  que se alguém aqui souber explicar melhor, por favor o faça, que não
  encontrei isso nas man pages:
 
  O initrd é uma espécie de pré-kernel, que é carregado para dar suporte à
  alguns dispositivos, como, por exemplo o ext3fs. Uma vez podendo acessar
  ext3fs, o grub pode buscar o kernel propriamente dito, que é então
  carregado. Nesse ponto o initrd é liberado da memória e não mais
utilizado.
  Daí o motivo do suporte a ext3 ser compilado como módulo, para que o
initrd
  também possa incluir suporte a ext3. Pelo menos nos meus testes, quando
eu
  compilava ext3 no kernel, minha imagem initrd não tinha suporte a ext3,
daí
  não explodia na memória os drivers pra acessar esse tipo de partição. E,
  como no /etc/fstab a partição é indicada como ext3fs, o grub não enxerga
  corretamente e não consegue carregar o kernel sem que o initrd tenha
  carregado o suporte a ext3 anteriormente.
  Cara... imagino que eu tenha falado muita besteira pois tirei essas
  conclusões empiricamente após 1 semana de compilação em 2 computadores.
E
  não encontrei documentação descente falando sobre isso, infelizmente.
  Por favor, se alguém manjar bastante disso, explique pra  gente ou então
  indique alguma documentação boa...  please.
 
  Abraços,
  Leonardo Lourenço Crespilho

2004-09-17 Thread Ruben Leote Mendes
Olá,

Tive esse mesmo problema quando testei o kernel 2.6 pela primeira vez.
O que se passou foi que existem umas novas opções relativas a suporte IDE
que eu não tinha reparado e não incluí no kernel. Sem suporte para IDE
nada feito. Pelo vistos os kernel hackers utilizam SCSI. :-)

As opções que têm de ser incluídas são:

* ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support (CONFIG_IDE)
* Enhanced IDE/MFM/RLL disk/cdrom/tape/floppy support (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE)
* Include IDE/ATA-2 DISK support (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDISK)
* generic/default IDE chipset support (CONFIG_IDE_GENERIC)
* PCI IDE chipset support (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEPCI)
* Generic PCI IDE Chipset Support (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_GENERIC)

Espero que ajude.

Só por curiosidade, vc instalou o grub no /dev/hda2 ao invés da

Não, instalei o Grub na MBR porque? isso implica em alguma coisa??
Eu preciso fazer um initrd ??? com o make-dpkg kernel_image --initrd , ele
menciona um erro de
cramfs e pergunta se realmente eu quero continuar.. por isso pergunto se é
realmente preciso o initrd...

Bom, aqui para criar o initrd eu fiz, dá primeira vez:
mkinitrd -o /boot/initrd

Só que depois que instalei o bootsplash, eu o mudei coforme está
no site http://www.bootsplash.org
Quanto ao root (hd0,1), não tenho certeza se está certo, mas
provavelmente está.
Tente criar o initrd com o comando acima e diga o que acontece.

Olha... não consegui entender direito, mas tive muitos problemas com esse
kernel também. Não só com ele, mas com a família 2.4 e 2.6.   Fiz diversas
combinações e constatei, impiricamente, que o problema - pelo menos no meu
caso - estava em compilar ext3 no kernel, e não como módulo. Daí eu compilei
como módulo e funcionou normal. Dessa experiência tirei algumas conclusões,
que se alguém aqui souber explicar melhor, por favor o faça, que não
encontrei isso nas man pages:

O initrd é uma espécie de pré-kernel, que é carregado para dar suporte à
alguns dispositivos, como, por exemplo o ext3fs. Uma vez podendo acessar
ext3fs, o grub pode buscar o kernel propriamente dito, que é então
carregado. Nesse ponto o initrd é liberado da memória e não mais utilizado.
Daí o motivo do suporte a ext3 ser compilado como módulo, para que o initrd
também possa incluir suporte a ext3. Pelo menos nos meus testes, quando eu
compilava ext3 no kernel, minha imagem initrd não tinha suporte a ext3, daí
não explodia na memória os drivers pra acessar esse tipo de partição. E,
como no /etc/fstab a partição é indicada como ext3fs, o grub não enxerga
corretamente e não consegue carregar o kernel sem que o initrd tenha
carregado o suporte a ext3 anteriormente.
Cara... imagino que eu tenha falado muita besteira pois tirei essas
conclusões empiricamente após 1 semana de compilação em 2 computadores. E
não encontrei documentação descente falando sobre isso, infelizmente.
Por favor, se alguém manjar bastante disso, explique pra  gente ou então
indique alguma documentação boa...  please.

2004-09-17 Thread Arthur_Henrique_Sommerhalder_Tupinamba

Primeiramente Leonardo, obrigado pela força:
Vamos as dúvidas... (vamos dizer, que farei isso pelo menos em funcao de
testes)

- Se eu compilar o ext3 como módulo, jogo o ext2 como built-in ?? ou apenas o
ext3 como módulo ?
- Bom para criaçao do initrd, eu preciso alterar o mkinitrd.conf de cramfs pra
ext2fs ? a sintaxe de comando é mkinitrd -o /DIRETORIO OUTPUT/ARQUIVO OUTPUT ?

Tentarei fazer o que nosso amigo Rubens disse, mas gostaria que mais alguem
desse uma ajuda referente ao problema Aos que já presenciaram o problema...
por favor, deem uma forcinha... Pois afinal, nada melhor do que um kernel 100%
enxuto, rolando.

Abraços a todos e mais uma vez Obrigado!

Olá,

Tive esse mesmo problema quando testei o kernel 2.6 pela primeira vez.
O que se passou foi que existem umas novas opções relativas a suporte IDE
que eu não tinha reparado e não incluí no kernel. Sem suporte para IDE
nada feito. Pelo vistos os kernel hackers utilizam SCSI. :-)

As opções que têm de ser incluídas são:

* ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support (CONFIG_IDE)
* Enhanced IDE/MFM/RLL disk/cdrom/tape/floppy support (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDE)
* Include IDE/ATA-2 DISK support (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEDISK)
* generic/default IDE chipset support (CONFIG_IDE_GENERIC)
* PCI IDE chipset support (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDEPCI)
* Generic PCI IDE Chipset Support (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_GENERIC)

Espero que ajude.

Mit den Paketen direkt hat das nichts zu tun, sondern mit deiner

Ansonsten musst die IDE-hd-Treiber und die fürs dortige Filesystem

In the kernel or as modules?  They have to be builtin for it boot.

Is your kernel really at /bzImage2.6.5 ?
Does it have an initrd that you forgot to specify?

Kernel Panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on hdh6

2004-01-01 Thread Thorsten Haude
Moin,

ich habe gerade einen neuen Kernel gebacken und bekomme es nicht hin,
den auch zu booten.


Ich habe hier zwei Festplatten an einem HPT370. Die beiden Platten
werden im laufenden Betrieb ohne Problem erkannt, sowohl von Sarge
(darum geht's hier) als auch von meinem alten SuSE.

Jetzt habe ich einen neuen Kernel (2.6.0) gebacken und mittels 'make
install' installiert. Der Kernel findet sich auch brav in /boot. Wenn
bei dieser Aktion allerdings lilo(8) aufgerufen wird, gibt's schon
Probleme mit unterschiedlichen Geometriedaten der Festplatte. Danach
habe ich lilo(8) nochmal händisch aufgerufen:
- - - Schnipp - - -

Wenn ich jetzt aber versuche zu booten, klappt das nicht wirklich, der
Kernel reagiert panisch. Mal ein paar abgetippte Details:
- - - Schnipp - - -
HPT370: IDE controller at PCI slot :00:13.0
hdg: IC35L060AVER07-0, ATA DISK drive
hdh: SAMSUNG SV1604N, ATA DISK drive

hdh: unknown partition table

VFS: Cannot open roo device 2246 or hdh6
Please append a correct root= boot option
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on hdh6
- - - Schnapp - - -

Interessant ist der Mittelteil: Beide Festplatten werden erkannt, für
beide wird aber eine unbekannte Partitionstabelle gemeldet. Habe ich
in dem neuen Kernel einen Schalter übersehen?

Meine lilo.conf (ohne Kommentare):
- - - Schnipp - - -
bios=0x81
boot=/dev/hdg
root=/dev/hdh6
install=/boot/boot-menu.b
map=/boot/map

default=Linux
image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
read-only
root=/dev/hdh6
image=/vmlinuz.old
label=LinuxOLD
read-only
optional
- - - Schnapp - - -

Die zweite Zeile 'root=/dev/hdh6' habe ich nachträglich hinzugefügt,
das hat aber nichts gebracht.

Aus der fstab:
- - - Schnipp - - -
/dev/hdh6   /   ext3errors=remount-ro   0   1
/dev/hdg1   noneswapsw  0   0
/dev/hdh1   noneswapsw  0   0
/dev/hdh5   /boot   ext3defaults0   2
/dev/hdh7   /usrext3defaults0   2
/dev/hdh8   /home   ext3defaults0   2
- - - Schnapp - - -

Im Kernel sind folgende Optionen gesetzt (nicht als Modul):
IDE
BLK_DEV_IDE
BLK_DEV_IDEDISK
BLK_DEV_IDEPCI
BLK_DEV_IDEDMA_PCI
BLK_DEV_HPT366
BLK_DEV_VIA82CXXX

EXT2_FS
EXT3_FS


So, es ist also entweder der falsche Kernel oder ein verhackstückter
Lilo. Mit dem alten Kernel (2.4.22-bf2.4) und der alten Konfiguration
konnte ich ohne Probleme booten.

Google kennt den Geometriefehler, die entsprechenden Seiten haben mich
aber nicht weitergebracht. Über den Kernel panic sind auch Seiten
vorhanden, aber ebenfalls nichts, was für mich interessant aussieht.


Wie kann ich nun vorgehen, um den
Fehler weiter einzugrenzen?

Yes it did.
Coming to think of it, make exited with an error during the final step of 
kernel compilation - make modules_install because of dependancy issues with 
some *pmcia* and *mtd* modules. Therefore the resulting initrd.img created 
from /lib/modules/2.4.21 directory must have been lacking in some aspect.

Building disk  filesystem drivers directly into the kernel as per above 
instructions and forgetting about initrd.img did the trick.

You probably forgot to include the driver for your hard disk when you
built the kernel.  Follow Joris' suggestion for enabling the driver
for the most common type of disks.  (BTW, I've done this before.  It's
a good way to learn to include the driver :-))

Paul,

To be fair, you should point out that this is an opinion that run's
contrary to how Debian's 2.4 kernels are packaged. 

~$ uname -r
2.4.18-k7
~$ /sbin/lsmod | grep ^ext
ext2   30848   1 (autoclean)
ext3   57248   6 (autoclean)

The Debian kernels do provide for maximum ease and reliability IMHO :-)

Re: Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs

2002-12-06 Thread Andrew Perrin
Just a thought, but do you have ide and/or scsi as modules instead of
compiled into the kernel? You will get this message if the kernel can't
mount the root partition because it doesn't have the necessary drivers to
talk to the disk on which the root partition sits.  That is, if / is on an
ide disk you need ide compiled into the kernel, not a module.

 Perhaps, but I doubt anything like that can cause this particular kernel

 Anyway, I've been able to boot a vanilla 2.4.20 kernel, and I'll make my

 Wait, are you trying to boot a kernel that doesn't have ext3 compiled

Nope, ext2/ext3 have been included in the vmlinuz-image all along.


I'll throw in another question here:

from /etc/fstab:
/dev/hdc6   /   ext2errors=remount-ro   0   1

from dmesg:
kjournald starting.  Commit interval 5 seconds
EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.

EXT3 FS 2.4-0.9.19, 19 August 2002 on ide1(22,6), internal journal

I know I initially created / as an ext2 partition, and I can't recall having
converted it to ext3 (though I could be wrong, I've certainly thought about
it, I just can't recall having actually done it yet), I also just tried

adriot3:~# mount -v -t ext3 -o remount /dev/hdc6 /
/dev/hdc6 on / type ext3 (rw)
adriot3:~# mount
/dev/hdc6 on / type ext2 (rw)

So why the mount as EXT3 while booting?


Anyway, I've now got 2.4.20, plus the patches I wanted, up and running fine,
and hopefully this won't be an issue again. It was probably some silly
mistake on my part.

 To be fair, you should point out that this is an opinion that run's
 contrary to how Debian's 2.4 kernels are packaged. 

Yes, I realise this, however, when compiling one's own kernel from the
kernel archive (oppose to the debian source) then it's easier to do it
my way.

People who are new to building kernels should do it the Debian way for
simplicity, and newbies should stick to the kernel-image packages
until the process makes sense without too much additional assistance.

I did this, and got the kernel down to 719kB. However, the exact same
thing occurs on boot (minus the three last lines, as I included NTFS-
support as a module), so a hidden size limitation is obviously not the
problem. Now I'm really wondering what actually 'solved' it for me with

the only thing I can recall changing was turning some non-essential
things into modules. That's why I was certain the problem was related to
the size of the kernel image.

It would help if you remember what things you configured as modules.
If you got i.e a driver for the wrong sound card compiled in the kernel
it can give you a kernel panic.If it is compiled as module the module
just doesn't load.

Perhaps, but I doubt anything like that can cause this particular kernel

Anyway, I've been able to boot a vanilla 2.4.20 kernel, and I'll make my
changes one by one, so that if I'm hit by this again I will hopefully be
able to pinpoint what introduced it.

Wait, are you trying to boot a kernel that doesn't have ext3 compiled
in on a system whose /etc/fstab specifies the / partition as being
ext3?  You can't get away with having your root partition being a
filesystem for which you must load a module to support.  Unless you
use initrd, but that's messy and not very failproof.

Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs

Basically, if my /boot/vmlinuz image exceeds a certain size (the limit seems be
somewhere around 90 bytes), the following occurs on boot:

hdc6: bad access: block=2, count=2

NTFS: Reading super block failed
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 16:06


While some googling revealed that I'm certainly not the only one being hit by
this particular type of kernel panic, I found no solutions that seemed
applicable to my situation.

This has happened with 2.4.19, 2.4.20-pre10, and now 2.4.20-ck1, all compiled
from kernel.org sources (ck1 from
http://members.optusnet.com.au/ckolivas/kernel/).

I have not tested any 2.4-kernel prior to 2.4.19.

Du mußt den root Parameter setzen.

z.B. in lilo.conf
root=/dev/hdb1 
und lilo neu installieren

alternativ kannst du ja mal mit rdev am kernel image rumspielen.

Nein. Die Angabe 03:41 beim Booten ist hex und bedeutet deshalb
major number = 3, minor number = 65,  also hdb1.

 Please append a correct root= boot option
 Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:03

Before you start to tweak a lilo.conf file, do make sure you *include* 
ATA-ATAPI disk support in the kernel config prior to compiling! :)_

Main menu:  ATA/IDE/MFM/RLL support  ---
Then:  IDE, ATA and ATAPI Block devices  ---
*   Include IDE/ATA-2 DISK support

It is painfully easy to build kernels for your *own* box, but other 
peoples boxen might just use IDE, and require the driver support. :)

Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:41

2002-01-16 Thread Nick Sanders
Hi,

I tried using a stock debian 2.4 kernel (kernel-image-2.4.17-k7) for the 
first time before now I've been compiling vanilla kernels. I get the 
following message while booting (after the LVM probing devices message)

cramfs: wrong message
Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:41

I know this has been mentioned before but I can't see any solution, I've 
added initrd=/initrd.img (which points to /boot/initrd.img-2.4.17-k7) to 
lilo.conf and run lilo - below is my lilo.conf

Thanks

01:00 is not an ide drive - it should 03:01 or something.  I tsounds
like you're trying to using an initrd image without having an /initrd.
Try a boot kernel that doesn't use initrd.

kernel panic: vfs: unable to mount root fs install errror 01:00

2002-01-12 Thread justin cunningham
Hi, 

Problem:  

I'm trying to get a server built with 2.2r4 potato cd and keep getting
the above error.  I tried the boot options in f2-f8 and tried mounting
various root.bins from specifying floppy0 at boot: then got kernel
panic: no init found try passing init= option to kernel.  I looked up
the errors on the deb user list and found similar questions but no
answers.  

One posting says: 'Your kernel does not support initrd and/or ramdisk.'
But the suggestion is dependant on a shell and I can't get a console
started.

Another says:  This is a common problem and it has only a few causes.
First, check the device XX:YY against the list of device codes in
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/devices.txt. If it is incorrect, you
probably didn't do an rdev -R, or you did it on the wrong image. If the
device code is correct, then check carefully the device drivers compiled
into your kernel. Make sure it has floppy disk, ramdisk and ext2
filesystem support built-in.  -- informative but doesn't help right
now.

I have a rh7.2 disk I tried to boot with to test and had no problem
other than not wanting a rh install.

Another post I found via google said the only way that user got around
the error was to compile the kernel elseware and then move it to the
failing system but I don't know how to do that.

Kernel-image is 2.2.19-4potato.2

Hardware: dell poweredge 350 1u server p3850 512 sdram ecc 2 20gig ide
drives which are being detected by install script 2 intel pro 100 isa
nics and one intell pro 100 pci nic.

Thanks for any help, Justin

PS:  if anyone replies from the debian-boot list can they please post to

 Hola a todos,
 
 He estado instalando una debian en un 486 con 16 MB de RAM. Empecé
 instalando una Potato (y todo fue bien) y después, con el sistema

 El caso es que digo, bueno pos vamos a instalar un nucleo 2.4, así que
 hago un apt-get install kernel-image-2.4.16-386. Entonces me avisa de
 que tengo que modificar el lilo.conf con una linea que sea
 initrd=/initrd. El caso es q la línea no era correcta pero mirando en la

solamente anotar que si haces

No sure but looks like something to do with the fact that 2.4.x has 
Plug and Play support built in.
Is there some module or kernel config option like isapnp or pnp?
Maybe you got the isapnp tools which should be removed or configured 
otherwise for a 2.4.x kernels?
Isn't there any reference in the kernel documentation? Perhaps there is 
a reference in the isapnp package docs?

My 2.2.19pre17 has files that looks related:

[14:33:07 tmp]$ ls /lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/*pnp*
/lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/modules.isapnpmap
/lib/modules/2.2.19pre17/modules.pnpbiosmap
[14:34:14 tmp]$ 

Yet I have never touched them and I do not know how they are related.

Hopefully someone else on debian-user can fill in the missing parts 
better then I can.

 As my subject line indicates, I'm getting the diagnostic:

   Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 01:00

i would say the #1 cause of this is lack of support for
the disk controller which the root drive is hooked to
compiled into the kernel(it can't be a module).

first thing to check is to see if the drive is detected
on boot ...if it is we can go from there..

also make sure the filesystem your using is compiled into
the kernel.

The mistake is not obvious to me. 
Just guessing:

(1) Are you sure you need the initrd line? Do you actually have /boot/initrd? 
This line is not shown in /usr/share/doc/lilo/examples/conf.sample.
(2) Have you run lilo after you installed the new kernel and before you 
rebooted?
(3) Does the fs driver for the root device in the new kernel compiled as a 
module?
(4) Could it be that you have not installed the new kernel properly? One way to 
avoid this is to use Debian kernel-package.

Not _necessary_ but an option.  I personally don't use the initrd
method with my kernels, as I found the boost in boot time to be
negligable and therefor more trouble than it was worth, but I don't
use the make-kpkg method, it may be easier.  You can use it or not, is

Custom kernel: Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 21:05

2001-10-30 Thread Ohlemeyer Matthias
Hi,

it seems like similar problems have happened to other people on this list,
but I could not determine a solution for my special case: After making and
installing a custom kernel with kernel-package my box will not boot any
longer.

Here is what I did:

* installed Debian potato with kernel 2.2.18pre21-ide (ABIT BE6-II
motherboard, HPT366 chipset with UDMA)

* upgraded to kernel-image-2.2.19-ide, everything works fine

* got the 2.2.19 kernel-sources with apt-get install kernel-source-2.2.19
and the ide-kernel-path with apt-get install kernel-patch-2.2.19-ide

* untarred the kernel-sources and copied /boot/config-2.2.19-ide to .config
in top-level kernel-source directory

* in toplevel kernel-source directory
  export PATCH_THE_KERNEL=YES
 make-kpkg clean
 make-kpkg --revision=custom.1.0 kernel_image

Everything seems to work fine - the kernel gets patched and after answering
a few questions the compile-process starts and runs through without any
problems.

The options I had to set manually:

NS87415 chipset support (EXPERIMENTAL) (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_NS87415)=y
VIA82C586 chipset support (EXPERIMENTAL) (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_VIA82C586)=y
CMD646 chipset support (EXPERIMENTAL) (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_CMD646)=y

Here is my first question: Why are there any options which are not set by
the config-file in /boot? If the kernel-image was made with the same sources
and (kernel-source and patch) and the config-file in /boot I shouldn't get
any questions after calling 'make-kpkg kernel_image' (which calls 'make
oldconfig'), right?

* next I installed the new kernel with 'dpkg -i
kernel-image-2.2.19_custom1.0_i386.deb

* now after trying to reboot I get the following messages:

How do I activate it?

 Everything seems to work fine - the kernel gets patched and after

im not famillar with PATCH_THE_KERNEL and getting the system
to patch it ..do you have the IDE patch? i download it from
www.linux-ide.org.


 The options I had to set manually:

 NS87415 chipset support (EXPERIMENTAL) (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_NS87415)=y
 VIA82C586 chipset support (EXPERIMENTAL)
 (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_VIA82C586)=y CMD646 chipset support (EXPERIMENTAL)
 (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_CMD646)=y

none of these are related to the Highpoint controller. the option(s)
you want are probably:
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HPT34X is not set
# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_HPT366 is not set
(copied/pasted from my own custom kernel)


the above is not available without the IDE patch, if your
using 2.2 which you appear to be doing


 It looks as if my Harddisk on the UDMA-controller is not found.
yes..probably because you don't have the IDE patch. or its not
patched correctly. i patch my kernels manually

patch -p0 patchname


 Any ideas?

see above :)

my current method for installing a kernel:
download source from kernel.org
download openwall patch from openwall.com
download ide patch(if its an ide system) from linux-ide.org
download eepro update(if needed) from sycld.com(sp?)

patch up, run make menuconfig(ive heard about oldconfig but im
tied to menuconfig i like to go over every option to be sure
its what i want everytime).
run make-kpkg clean
run make-kpkg --revision=30:30.0+ow3+ide+eepro binary

(the revision changes of course and the stuff at the end tells
me what patches/modifications i did to the kernel. my latest kernel
filename is pretty big -
kernel-image-2.2.19_36.0+ide+scsi+3ware+reiserfs+firewall+eepro117b+loopback+ow3_i386.deb)

lilo (or something else) is telling the kernel to mount / from device

Documentation/devices.txt in my kernel source tree, major device 21
is the generic SCSI subsystem and minor device 04 in that system is
the fifth device, so 21:04 would be /dev/sg4 (or /dev/sge).  Either
a) you don't have generic SCSI support in your kernel, b) you don't
have five generic SCSI devices, or c) you have to boot off a SCSI
drive (/dev/sd*), not a generic SCSI device (/dev/sg*).

Although a) and b) are both possible, I suspect that c) is also true,
so your machine will continue to fail to boot until you tell it to
use a device of the correct type.

 During the install of the 2.4 kernel package. I goot a message about
 needing to add a initrd line to lilo.conf.

That's really only necessary if you use the stock kernel or roll your
own and have certain things built as modules; I know filesystem
drivers fall into this category, but can't say what else does.  I
don't use modules much, so I haven't had to deal with initrd.

This is probably the cause of your problem. I had the same problem the
first time I installed a 2.4 kernel package with apt-get.
Just follow the instructions and edit your lilo.conf file to point to
the initrd file and your machine should work again.

Hmm, maybe the kernel has no support for your scsi card/devices, yes.

BTW, probably the magic number written to the real-root-dev file is the
magic number description for your root device (every device in Linux can be
described by such a number combination - for the numbering system see
attached file devices.txt, the format in the real-root-dev file is for
example for /dev/hdb1: 0x365).

I've tried grub _and_ lilo. Grub just comes up in the interactive menu.
Lilo starts loading the kernel and then the kernel spits out this meesage.

This hapened just after I upgraded to the 2.4 kernel from the kernel

I desperately need to have this machine working by Monday.

Is this the same machine you just asked about the initrd stuff for?
To boot with an initrd (as Herbert's packages require) you need the
following sort of layout in grub :

title   Debian GNU/Linux (stock kernel 2.4.9)
root(hd0,0)
kernel  /boot/vmlinuz-2.4.9-686 root=/dev/hda4 read-only 
initrd=/boot/initrd-2.4.9-686 apm=on
initrd  /boot/initrd-2.4.9-686


Note that you need an initrd= for the kernel and to use 'initrd'
instead of 'boot' at the end of the section.

| This hapened just after I upgraded to the 2.4 kernel from the kernel
| packages for that.

You still have the older kernel to boot so you can fix your setup,
right?

Have you ever booted a 2.4 kernel before?  Do the stock 2.2 kernels
work for you?  Do you have any weird IDE controllers?  When I first
compiled my own 2.4 kernel on this system I accidentally disabled by
IDE controller, thus it couldn't find the disks.

Una vez que localices cual es la que tiene el Linux, y compruebes que

LILO, lo siguiente:
linux root=/dev/hda3 (ó hda4)
Con esto el kernel debería encontrar la partición raíz y montarla.
Una vez dentro deberás modificar el archivo lilo.conf y sustituir la línea:
root=/dev/hda2
por:
root=/dev/hda3 (ó hda4)
y después volver a ejecutar 'lilo'. A partir de aquí ya deberías poder arrancar

Si no encuentras tu antigua partición de Linux ni en hda3 ni en hda4,

Funcionaban correctamente, y tenia copado todo el disco con las particiones.
Yo sabia que con el partirion magic se podian cambiar el tamaño de
particiones para liberar espacio. Cambie el tamaño de la particion hda1
(ntfs) y luego al reiniciar la maquina (tengo por defecto el booteo para
nt), me levanto el nt y dijeme a mi mismo acá creo la unidad fat16 que
necesito. Entoncres echo a correr el administrador de disco, me alega de
que necesita escribir en el disco para acceder y de que no provocará
problemas con otras particiones y bla bla bla, bueno, será. Hace todo el
proceso, reparticiono al unidad previamente liberada, creo una particion
fat16, la formateo... ¡¡Listo :)!!

Reinicio la maquina, entro al debian y

 kernel panic : VFS : Unable to mount root fs on 03:02

y ahi se me queda pegado.

probé con el cfdisk, elimine la particion de fat16, le cree por acá, la
volvi a recrear, etc y nada de nada

Como puedo solucionar esto??

 Asunto: Partition magic + administrador de discos de wnt =
 kernel panic
 : VFS : UNable to mount root fs on 03:02
 Importancia: Alta


 Hola lista

 resumo:

 hda1 ntfs
 hda2 linux
 hda5 swap

 Funcionaban correctamente, y tenia copado todo el disco con
 las particiones.
 Yo sabia que con el partirion magic se podian cambiar el tamaño de
 particiones para liberar espacio. Cambie el tamaño de la
 particion hda1
 (ntfs) y luego al reiniciar la maquina (tengo por defecto el
 booteo para
 nt), me levanto el nt y dijeme a mi mismo acá creo la unidad
 fat16 que
 necesito. Entoncres echo a correr el administrador de disco,
 me alega de
 que necesita escribir en el disco para acceder y de que no provocará
 problemas con otras particiones y bla bla bla, bueno, será.
 Hace todo el
 proceso, reparticiono al unidad previamente liberada, creo
 una particion
 fat16, la formateo... ¡¡Listo :)!!

 Reinicio la maquina, entro al debian y

  kernel panic : VFS : Unable to mount root fs on 03:02

 y ahi se me queda pegado.

 probé con el cfdisk, elimine la particion de fat16, le cree
 por acá, la
 volvi a recrear, etc y nada de nada

 Como puedo solucionar esto??

RE: kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:06

2000-02-24 Thread Juanma


Ese problema suele ocurrir si, al compilar el kernel, se selecciona
(en filesystems) el ext2fs como modulo, que no puede ser. El ext2fs
tiene que incluirse directamente en el kernel, no como modulo

 Miguel


Gracias por tu rápida respuesta. Era lo de hacer como módulo el ext2fs.

Le he comentado a Barbie que el otro día me comentaba uno que trabaja para
Mocosoft que no teníamos soporte técnico detrás. Pues que venga Dios y lo
vea.

La pena que me queda es el no haber consultado antes..

Gracias

RV: kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:06

2000-02-24 Thread Juanma
Ante todo muchas gracias a la lista.

El asunto era que había compilado como módulo la ext2fs y por eso no
arrancaba.
No se por qué razón se puede compilar como módulo siendo tan importante para
el arranque que se haga como integrante del kernel.

Saludos

 Porque  nada  te obliga  a  usar  ext2fs. Puedes  formatear  la
 partición  Linux con  otro  sistema de  archivos  y prescindir  del
 ext2fs completamente. ¿Se puede eso en la kk?  :^).
