[opensuse-factory] Netiso MS3: Not all needed modules present in repo.
Hi, I updated to MS3, using zypper dup, rebooting complained about two missing kernelmodules: result no desktop starting up, no tty. Fixing the issue using the Netiso leaded to ncurses and trying to load the installmodules 3 times. Not possible to install or repair. 'an error occured'.... All went well untill the install should start: ti connecting to the server, downloading the modules. Than few modules missing, and stop. Rescue did work, but i did not know the commands to get it doing what i needed. Luckily i have a still working 11.1 install. Any ideas as how to get the missing modules installed, and getting the system booted? (amd modules and pata are missing, caught in a glimps) Unfortunately i am not able to get to the bootlog from this install, i will try to get the right names of the missing modules. -- Enjoy your time around, Oddball, aka M9.

The reason is that ext4 cann't be read from 11.1:

It seems indeed an xserver problem. Is MS4 ready on thursday?

modprobe ext4dev then you can mount ext4 file system. Above should work. I don't have any 11.1 installations left, so I can't check the driver name, but it should be in: /lib/modules/<kernel version>/kernel/fs/ext4/ -- Regards Rajko, -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org

If you use kernel 2.6.27.29-01-default which is precondition to load ext4dev then: modprobe ext4dev will load the driver, but I'm not sure that it is included in HAL, so GUI tools that use HAL to mount drives can fail.

There is no complain from modprobe and that means the driver is loaded. I would recommend to check is driver really loaded after modprobe or it is crashing later when you try to use it. Right after the modprobe -v ext4dev run lsmod | grep -i ext4 to see is driver loaded. Then if you see the driver try to mount hard disk: mount /dev/sda11 /mnt and then run again: lsmod | grep -i ext4 to see is driver still in place. If it is, then try to see content. If you can't then run again: lsmod | grep -i ext4 As mentioned I used it and it worked fine. The main difference, so far I recall, is that I don't have so many partitions. If you see kernel update from regular update repo then do it, but make sure that zypper will keep old kernel. Set option: multiversion = kernel-default in /etc/zypp/zypp.conf which will preserve your old kernel, and make possible to boot the old one, if new fails. -- Regards Rajko, -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
