seems to me
since ext4 is the recommended filesystem when formatting disks in the slackware install dialogue.
It should be set as built-in for the generic kernel configuration. Since this seems to be a very common "system won't boot" complaint. Just a suggestion Thanks John |

I made initrd like always mkinitrd -c -k 3.2.23-smp -m reiserfs and system not started - error is: mount: mounting /dev/ on /mnt failed: No such device Then I try mount -t reiserfs /dev/sda2 /mtn but mount: mounting /dev/sda2 on /mnt failed: No such device I don't now why? ls /dev/sda* /dev/sda /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 /dev/sda3 /dev/sda4 /dev/sda5 /dev/sda6 mkinitrd -c -k 3.2.23-smp -m reiserfs -u The same problem. kernel-huge starts OK. |

I've noticed that things have started being mounted with UUID for example /media/ed192c1c-d9fc-4e9d-b57c-723abdfbd6a4 as opposed to /media/disk this is really annoying. Is there a way to change it.
Also, when mounting this other drive I'm asked for my password. This used to be my root password now it is only accepting my ordinary user password. This feels like a potential security breach just waiting to happen. samac |

I specified that ext4 should be built into the initrd when I created it, so this really shouldn't be the problem. I rather think that this is a problem with mkinitrd, since there is also an error-message about missing udevadm, which shouldn't be a problem since the init script is testing if udev is present. |

BTW: after performing the upgrades from July 13 I am running the generic kernel 3.2.23 without any problems. I did what I wrote in my poste above. Markus |
failed to execute '/lib/udev/vol_id' 'vol_id --export /dev/dm-0': No such file or directory
vol_id seems missing in the udevd package |

There isn't symbolic link /boot/initrd-tree/lib/libz.so.1 -> libz.so.1.2.6 This link is only in /lib directory. I made this link manualy and made new initrd by mkinitrd without the -c option. Now generic kernel works! |

I un-installed (removepkg) the new version of NetworkManager (0.9.4) and re-installed the previous version (0.9.2) and upon reboot there was an error message saying networkmanager couldn't find libgnutls26.... something like that, it flew by quickly. Which reminds me, I do NOT like the way you are thrown to a new screen with only the 'welcome' and the sign-on prompt. Makes it almost impossible to read the last several lines of the boot process which are not in the dmesg file. After seeing the error message I checked and gnutls-whatever is installed. So, I un-installed networkmanager-0.9.2 and installed wicd. Hopefully I'll figure out the problem soon as wicd is about as reliable as a politician. :) |

*EDIT: Well, I deleted all the files that are not symbolic, those can be found in the /usr/lib64/seamonkey-2.10.1/ instead. I'm not sure how those files were installed in the /usr/lib64 anyways... I hope this does not screw up something now. For the glx-part, I reinstalled the NVIDIA-driver... And now for the volumeicon I get this: bash-4.2$ volumeicon volumeicon: error while loading shared libraries: libnotify.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory |
