Sound Server Error

DiZASTiX · 05-11-2003, 06:22 PM

Ok, here is what happned:

boot: root=/dev/hda1
Could not find kernel image: root=/dev/hda1

And yes, it is hda1

Was i supposed to type:

boot: bare.i root=/dev/hda1

Post the output of 'fdisk -l /dev/hda'.

DiZASTiX · 05-11-2003, 06:38 PM

Its in a table but im writing it like this:

Device: /dev/hda1
Boot: *
Start : 1
End" 807
Blocks: 6100888+
Id: 83
System: Linux

Device: /dev/hda3
Boot:
Start : 808
End" 833
Blocks: 196560
Id: 82
System: Linux Swap

And no, there is no hda2

DiZASTiX · 05-11-2003, 06:47 PM

I tried:

boot: bare.i root=/dev/hda1

and it boots into my regular linux off the hd and not the cd, but the sound doesnt work

Yet, im not sure if it is using the new kernel?

*edit*

Also if it helps, this is my current /etc/lilo.conf (the one i used on my last recompile)

Code:

# LILO configuration file
# generated by 'liloconfig'
#
# Start LILO global section
append="opl3=0x388"
boot = /dev/hda1
message = /boot/boot_message.txt
prompt
timeout = 1200

I was thinking, even though i booted from the cdrom, hda1, maybe it is not using the new compiled kernel. Like, if i had lilo running, it would let me choose, so maybe when i boot hda1 from the cdrom it is using the old kernel?

*edit*
I just found out that i cannot make a boot disk, the kernel is too big

So i need to fix LILO or get the CDRom to boot the new compiled kernel off hda1

quietguy47 · 05-11-2003, 07:42 PM

This
# Linux bootable partition config begins
image = /boot/vmlinuz.old
root = /dev/hda1
label = slack
read-only
# Linux bootable partition config ends
Should look like this
# Linux bootable partition config begins
image = /boot/vmlinuz
root = /dev/hda1
label = slack
read-only
image=/boot/vmlinuz.old
root=/dev/hda1
label=linux
read-only
# Linux bootable partition config ends

DiZASTiX · 05-11-2003, 07:59 PM

quietguy: i just tried that but the sound doesnt work, im booting by puting in the cdrom and saying:

boot: bare.i root=/dev/hda1 noinitrd ro

Would this help, this is one part i get when i type dmesg:

Kernel command line: initrd=initrd.img load_ramdisk=1 prompt_ramdisk=0 ramdisk_s IMAGE=/kernels/bare.i/bzImage root=/dev/hda1 noinitrd ro

Also, lilo still gives me LI

quietguy47 · 05-11-2003, 08:06 PM

You corrected your /etc/lilo.conf file?

DiZASTiX · 05-11-2003, 08:14 PM

Yes. Here is the new one

Code:

# LILO configuration file
# generated by 'liloconfig'
#
# Start LILO global section
append="opl3=0x388"
boot = /dev/hda1
message = /boot/boot_message.txt

quietguy47 · 05-11-2003, 08:14 PM

I'm wondering if you may need the lowmem.i kernel. bare.i maybe be to big after compiling.

DiZASTiX · 05-11-2003, 08:16 PM

On my earlier post, where it says :

IMAGE=/kernels/bare.i/bzImage

The /kernels/bare.i/bzImage is from the CD Just to let you know.

quietguy47 · 05-11-2003, 08:16 PM

scroll about 1/4 of the way down for a description of the kernels.

quietguy47 · 05-11-2003, 08:17 PM

bare.i is the default Slackware kernel.

quietguy47 · 05-11-2003, 08:31 PM

I must be stupid. I should have told you to run /sbin/lilo this time after modifying lilo.conf

DiZASTiX · 05-11-2003, 08:41 PM

Ok, i ran it i got:

Warning: LBA32 addressing assumed
Added slack *
Added linux

Then i rebooted and booted from the cd

boot: bare.i /dev/hda1 noinitrd ro

And logged in, started X but the sound still doesnt work

BTW I dont have lowmem.i on the cd, i only have these:

adaptec.s
bare.i
jfs.s
raid.s
scsi.s
scsi2.s
speakup.i
xfs.i

idk why the sound wont work, when i compiled and made slack i did everything!
