[very old: 10.2] mkinitrd,mount,EXT[3,4]
by Felix Miata 03 Nov '24

03 Nov '24

I'm in process of eliminating EXT2 & EXT3 filesystems from old computers, due to the year 2038 date problem that might arrive before my termination. Using: tune2fs -O extents,uninit_bg,dir_index /dev/sdb1 This has worked reliably until arriving at the oldest installation encountered yet, 10.2, the oldest on that PC. I have others yet to do even older. The initial problem seemed to be that the 10.2 kernels simply didn't ship with /lib/modules/<version>/kernel/fs/ext4/. I thought I had this solved by installing a 10.3 kernel, which does provide it. However, I can't find a way to get it into the initrd. Adding ext3 to /etc/sysconfig/kernel's INITRD_MODULES= doesn't help. In order to do these things I must chroot to the installation, as no installed 10.2 kernel's initrd will mount the / filesystem since I added the features for upgrading to EXT4. I'm trying to use 11.4 to do the chroots as the closest installed version of anything else installed. mount -o bind /dev /disks/s102/dev mount -o bind /sys /disks/s102/sys mount -o bind /proc /disks/s102/proc chroot /disks/s102 The only other openSUSE on the PC is current TW. 11.4 on sda9 recognizes 10.2's sda15 as EXT4 and mounts it as such, as does TW, and Debian, and Fedora, but once in 10.2 chroot, it somehow gets switched (e.g. according to mount command output) to EXT3. /etc/mtab contains ext3, while /etc/fstab contains ext4. EXT3 is what the mkinitrd command reports sda15 is mounted as, along with claiming it cannot find an EXT4 module: mkinitrd -i initrd-2.6.22.19-0.4-default -k vmlinuz-2.6.22.19-0.4-default Kernel image: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.22.19-0.4-default Initrd image: /boot/initrd-2.6.22.19-0.4-default Could not find the filesystem module for root device /dev/sda15 (ext4) cat: /sys/b8:0/dev: No such file or directory cat: /sys/b8:16/dev: No such file or directory cat: /sys/b8:32/dev: No such file or directory cat: /sys/b8:48/dev: No such file or directory cat: /sys/b8:64/dev: No such file or directory I don't see anything helpful in mount or mkinitrd manuals. Any ideas what I can do to get the ext4 module into that old 10.3 2.6.22 kernel's initrd? It puts ext3 there instead (lsinitrd initrd | grep ext). Or, how about some change in chroot setup process that keeps 11.4's EXT4 FS mount type? What is forcing recognition as EXT3?

It and its .old sibling have identical content and current timestamps. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science. Team OS/2 ** Reg.

telegram missing dependency

entropy@silversurfer:~> sudo LC_ALL=C zypper in telegram-desktop. [sudo] password di root: Loading repository data... Reading installed packages... Resolving package dependencies... Problem: 1: nothing provides 'libQt6Core.so.6(Qt_6.7.3_PRIVATE_API)(64bit)' needed by the to be installed telegram-desktop-5.5.5-1.2.x86_64 Solution 1: do not install telegram-desktop-5.5.5-1.2.x86_64 Solution 2: break telegram-desktop-5.5.5-1.2.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies Choose from above solutions by number or cancel [1/2/c/d/?] (c): I filed a bug, but in the meanwhile: does anybody uses here telegram-desktop and managed to ship around this problem? If yes, how? Thank you.

Hello, I need libQt6Core.so.6(Qt_6.7.3_PRIVATE_API for telegram-desktop. Last zypper dup produced a lot of dependencies with others libQTs. So I need this library to be able to reinstall telegram-desktop, but apparently is not available within opensuse yet.

sftp broken in konqueror
by eddie 22 Oct '24

22 Oct '24

I installed Leap 15.5 today. I have several computers and communicate/transfer files between them using sftp in konqueror. I have submitted a bug report but I was wondering if anyone else has this problem and found a workaround or simple solution. My current workaround is to install the 15.4 files for konqueror and dolphin.

Going from leap 15.4 to 15.6
by Mark D. Neidorff 14 Oct '24

14 Oct '24

Hi, I know not to skip versions when upgrading, but that's not quite my question. A while back I got one of the mini-pcs measuring about 10cm X 10cm X 4cm. Installed 15.4 on it..smooth, but didn't use the installation beyond setting an account up. I want to go to 15.6, and I know not to try to go from 15.4 directly to 15.6. So, how should I proceed? Use gpartd to delete the 15.4 installation? If so, how should I deal with the UEFI stuff? (and the UEFI stuff is really my big question here) Thanks for any tips.
