Re: Problems with Athlon installs



Thanks Seth, that worked great. For others with the same problem, here are the steps I followed:

1. Copy the file /RedHat/RPMS/kernel-2.4.21-1.1931.2.349.2.2.ent.i686.rpm from disk 2 of the cd set to the root directory (needed because I couldn't figure out how to change CDs in rescue mode.
2. Boot from CD 1, type 'linux rescue' at the boot prompt.
3. When you get to a shell, type 'chroot /mnt/sysimage'
4. Install the new kernel with 'rpm -ivh --force kernel-2.4.21-1.1931.2.349.2.2.ent.i686.rpm'
5. reboot and you're done.

Subject: Problems with Athlon installs


I've install taroon on two athlon servers (one single-processor, one 
dual). In both cases the install seems to go OK but then when 
it boots 
following the install I get a bunch of kernel faults. I 
didn't have an 
easy way to capture all the data but the stack trace usually 
starts at 
do_generic_file_read [kernel].
    

Boot into rescue mode and install the i686 rpm.

I believe it will be fixed in the next round.

Cheers
Seth
