init hang!
In the directory /boot of my new lfs system there are 2 kernels: lfskernel and vmlinuz-2.4.18-3. lfskernel was created no doubt, by the chroot process during the installation. And somehow, lfs system only accept lfskernel. Then I made a terrible mistake by make a change in /etc/lilo.conf ( change lfskernel to vmlinuz-2.4.18-3 ), then I /sbin/lilo.
When I rebooted, the init hand with the errors: .... setting up default gateway [ok] INIT: Id "1" respawning too fast; desable for 5 minutes ... INIT: no more process left in this run level I still can boot into the base distro and chroot to work in the lfs system and it worked fine but if I booted it (lfs) separately, the init hang. Any suggestion? :newbie: :Pengy: Note: when I chroot(ed) from the base distro, I also changed the /etc/lilo.conf ( fls) back to lfskernel then /sbin/lilo. But that didn't help. |
as you run lilo after editing /etc/lilo.conf what did you get as message from lilo?
|
the message was something like ( the linux has been added). It means that the operation was complete and fine.
Have you tried lfs, yet? |
nopes didn't give it a try till yet so :)
|
Hurray!!! I fixed it. And thanks, Markus for trying to help.
|
so what did you do for fixing it? :)
|
Well, I am not sure which fixed the problem, but this is what I did:
I booted into the base distro then chroot (ed) into lfs system. then I did many modifications including fixing the /etc./fstab, recompiling the kernel and renamed it, then fixed the /etc/lilo.conf. Then all of a sudden, it worked. |
just asked in case question is asked again so a search could help in that case and cause of curiousity :)
p. s. where in the USA are you from? :) |
