Hi Rusty, Alan, I am using RedHat 8.0 and experimenting sometimes with 2.5.x. Some time ago I installed modutils-2.4.21-12 from Rusty's directory from kernel.org and yesterday I upgraded to the latest RH errata kernel. What surprised me was that the upgraded kernel did not boot up. The problem is that mkinitrd does not copy /sbin/insmod.static.old to the initrd image. Using the attached patch or downgrading to the RH8 modutils before upgrading the kernel fixes it. Best regards, Zoltán Böszörményi --- /sbin/mkinitrd.old 2002-09-05 07:07:04.000000000 +0200 +++ /sbin/mkinitrd 2003-02-10 20:40:04.000000000 +0100 @@ -501,6 +501,10 @@ inst /sbin/nash "$MNTIMAGE/bin/nash" inst /sbin/insmod.static "$MNTIMAGE/bin/insmod" +if [ -x /sbin/insmod.static.old ] +then + inst /sbin/insmod.static.old "$MNTIMAGE/bin/insmod.old" +fi ln -s /sbin/nash $MNTIMAGE/sbin/modprobe for MODULE in $MODULES; do | ||||||||||||
