[Bug 202959] Re: [hardy] generating locales stalls on 64mb ram

2008-08-05 Thread Michael Erskine
Another "me too" for this bug - I have 512Mb RAM and an English GB
locale being created...

localedef --no-archive --magic=20051014 -i en_GB -c -f ISO-8859-1 en_GB

...this has been running overnight on a machine to which I don't
currently have ready access! Oh the joys of a dist-upgrade :)

[Bug 115616] Re: Device-mapper errors: dm-linear, lookup failed

2007-12-18 Thread Michael Erskine
I don't usually like to add a "me too" comment to bugs but I think this
one is rather important and I want to add my almost insignificant voice
-- happened on one of my production servers yesterday during a
dist_upgrade to Gutsy. The purge of evms worked fine and the killall
udevd made the machine usable 'til reboot -- I didn't even know I was
using evms! -- I also had to remove lvm which caused conflicts and
thought I'd wrecked the install by removing something I shouldn't: I
used to know what almost everything did on Debian-based distros - sigh!
those were the days :)

[Bug 54264] Re: k3bsetup fails to change permissions of programs

2007-11-19 Thread Michael Erskine
I don't understand why this is listed with importance of "Wishlist". Can 
someone explain?
I have the problem here too and I don't know of any workarounds. Is it that k3b 
in Ubuntu does not come with the required 'k3bsetup2' module? Where can I 
obtain this module?

[Bug 65907] Re: CD-copying with K3b, cannot eject cd, failed copy

2007-02-11 Thread Michael Erskine
Problem still occurs with an entry in fstab. CD and DVD copy fails every
time - very, very annoying. K3B has started to suck on Kubuntu.

[Bug 52937] Re: "Waiting for root file system..." ...not found after kernel upgrade

2006-07-16 Thread Michael Erskine
If only I had known that there was a simple fix! Over the five days and
nights that the machine was down, I followed a lot of advice from a lot
of people offering their well-intended and, of course, completely free
support. Many thanks to all who helped or left hints in blogs, forums,
newsgroups, etc.

[Bug 52937] Re: "Waiting for root file system..." ...not found after kernel upgrade

2006-07-14 Thread Michael Erskine
OK, I have it working again after a few days of teeth-gnashing. I
followed a combination of hints from
http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?t=7295, Bug #32446, Bug #32123,
and some others I've forgot. I removed all kernels, udev, initramfs-
tools, then reinstalled udev, initramfs-tools by installing ubuntu-
minimal, then installed linux-image-686 and it rebuilt the initrd which
finally worked.

I'm really pleased that it's usable again - and LugRadio Live 2006 has
its MAME machine back!

[Bug 32446] Re: Dapper does not boot after last update

2006-07-14 Thread Michael Erskine
I have a similar problem following a routine kernel upgrade - older
kernels will not boot either - reported Bug #52937 and am currently
trying suggestions from http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?t=7295

BTW: Bug #32123 looks simillar

[Bug 52937] "Waiting for root file system..." ...not found after kernel upgrade

2006-07-14 Thread Michael Erskine
Public bug reported:

I was running dapper on generic Clevo 2200 1GHz laptop and following a
kernel upgrade to linux-image-2.6.15-25-686 the machine would do the
oft-reported hang at "Waiting for root file system..." followed by
dropping to BusyBox shell after a few minutes having not found it.

At this stage, all the modules for my IDE (sis5513) seem to be there and
/dev/hda1 had appeared. I was able to mount /dev/hda1 (ext3) and chroot
to it -- the file system looked fine. Having foolishly removed my older
kernels I managed to reinstall a few older versions of 2.6.15 by booting
to knoppix chrooting to /dev/hda1 and using aptitude. None of the older
kernels would find the root file system either.

I got a lot of help on IRC (thanks Matthew G!) but I'm giving up on it -
I've got to get a replacement machine set up in time for LRL'06. I still
have the machine in this state if any more information is needed,
however it isn't very accessible as it's built into an arcade machine!

** Affects: linux-source-2.6.15 (Ubuntu)
 Importance: Untriaged
 Status: Unconfirmed
