Hi all, I've just tried to upgrade a system from RH6.2 to 7.2. Done it before from 7.1 --> 7.2 without any probs but this time its been a real bugger.
First I had to move my /usr to another partition to make room for 7.2. (running out of space on / ). I did this OK and checked with a reboot of 6.2 before doing the upgrade. After the upgrade, I found during boot that the system just hung at "Checking file systems". I get out of that by typing Ctrl-C, but then it fails to mount my other local filesystems (namely /usr) Log messages are: .... rc.sysinit: Checking root succeeded... rc.sysinit: Remounting root filesystem as read/write rc.sysinit: Finding module dependencies updfstab : execvp: No such file or directory kudzu: Updating /etc/fstab failed kudzu: Failed sysctl: net.ipv4.ip4.ip.forward = 1 .... I loaded another system with /usr on another partition just to see what it does. It works fine and the fstab entries are the same on both machines. (the mount/check options are 1 1 for / and 1 2 for both /boot and /usr) Any ideas, I've been tearing my hair out for the past 6 hours trying to work it out!! Also, my tulip module which used to work nicely, now seems not to (no network, the autonegotiation seems to be using 100MB, and I have a 10MB hub - the options for tulip.o seem to be ignored by RedHat. Thanks lots for anyone that can help. Andy E. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
