Hi Jason, I needed such a CD 3 days ago because of broken boot-sector. I found nothing from SuSE about that, but this solved my problem: http://www.mandrakeusers.org/index.php?showtopic=11801 Greetings, Ralf Counts, Jason wrote:
I had a problem last night with the 2.4.21-226 rpm update. I am running SuSE 9.0 Pro on a Dell 1750 2x/2.8Ghz P4 Intel CPUs, with 1GB of RAM. PERC 4/di RAID controllers, 3x/36GB drives, two are in RAID5, the other is stand-alone. I have 5 of these machines with identical hardware configurations.
One machine is a dev box, the other is a staging box, and three more machines that make up my production environment. I updated the dev box using the procedures given in the kernel update advisory.
rpm -Uhv --nodeps --force <kernel update rpm>
It gave the standard output of a successful update, and rebooted successfully.
When I ran the same procedure on my staging server, it never came back up.
I suspect the initrd didn't install correctly. Could I please get a link to the procedure for re-installing the initrd in 9.0? Preferably from a CDROM. Thanks in advance.
Jason
