[S.u.S.E. Linux] Mysterious Boot Messages after Kernel Upgrade
Hi all- I just compiled a new kernel and when I rebooted I got messages like these: modprobe: can't locate module nls_cp437 unable to load NLS charset cp437 (nls_cp437) I guess I needed to select the corresponding codepages under the file systems menu (namely 437 and 850) but I forgot. What does NLS do and is it necessary? In addition to the above, I alos got this: LD setting verify failed, this may not be a problem Try adding (VERIFYLD N) to the top of your script Error occured executing request 'LD 2' on or around line 317 --- further action aborted Anyone know what LD is? How do I know if it's a problem? Should I turn of verifying LD? Thanks, Mark - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
Did you remember to do: "make modules" and "make modules_install"?? On 26-Jul-98 Mark Wagnon wrote:

I think it is more likely that the offending module wasn't chosen when configuring the kernel - I have to say that it is not an obvious choice: using make xconfig, select filesystems and select codepage 437. All should then be well in the world. Darren Benham wrote:

Yeah I did that. The problem was that I didn't make the corresponding selections that the NLS module wanted. I went back and did that, and those error messages disappeared. I am still getting the other message though. It seems to come up right after my PnP devices are configured (if that's the right term). Maybe something to do with my soundcard? I dunno, here's the message again: LD setting verify failed, this may not be a problem Try adding (VERIFYLD N) to the top of your script Error occured executing request 'LD 2' on or around line 317 --- further action aborted Thanks, Mark --- Darren Benham wrote:

HihO...

for the new fat32 support you need to specify a codepage and nls (native language support). 437 is for america and 850 ist for western europe. o far... - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
