 Posted: Sat Jun 25, 2005 9:34 pm Post subject: udev problem |
 |
|
| Code: |
* checking all filesystems...
fsck.ext2: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/boot
/dev/boot:
The superblock could not be read or does not descrive a correct ext2 file system. If the decive is valid and really contains an ext2 filesystem (and not swap or something else), then the superblock is currupt , and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
esfck -b 8193<device>
*fsck could not correct all errors, manual repair is needed
Give root pass for maintance
(or type control +d for normal start up):

Ok i know that this looks like other udev problems at first glance, that is what i thought. I have tried all the sugestions given on previous posts such as making sure the file system was activated in kernel, and making sure the devfs was not, i even have my grub file configured to pass udev as a argument. I am running a pentium 4, and used stage three with genkernel, when i compiled the kernel i passed: | Code: |
genkernel --udev all
|
As i mentioned before this was a little different then the other udev problmes because other people have had errors such as missing /dev/hdaX where as i am having problems with /dev/Boot. Here is my fstab:
| Code: |
/dev/Boot /boot ext2 noauto,noatime 11
/dev/root / xfs noatime 00
/dev/swap none swap sw 00
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro 00
none /proc proc defaults 00
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 00
|
And here is my grub.conf
| Code: |
defaults 0
timeout 30
splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz
title=Gentoo Linuz 2.6.11-r11
root=(hd0,0)
kernel /kernel-2.6.11-gentoo-r11 root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc ramdisk=8192 real_root=/dev/hda3 udev
initrd /initrd-2.6.11-gentoo-r11
|
Any ideas would be very helpful
-thanks |

It won't work with that fstab. There are no /dev/boot, /dev/root or /dev/swap device nodes. You need to use something like that (I'm assuming the standard partition layout, and you need to replace reiserfs by the name of the filesystem you're using for each partition) :
| Code: | /dev/hda1 /boot reiserfs ro,noatime,notail 0 0
/dev/hda2 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hda3 / reiserfs noatime 0 0
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro 0 0
none /proc proc defaults 0 0
none /dev/shm tmpfs defaults 0 0 |

/dev/boot, /dev/root, and /dev/swap are not device nodes!
You need to edit those and change them to the locations specific to your hard drives.
As an example, here is mine: | Code: | /dev/hda2 / reiserfs notail,noatime,user_xattr 0 0
/dev/hda1 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/cdroms/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom iso9660 noauto,ro 0 0

Yes, this looks like a labeling mixup. Perhaps you come from Red Hat? I did.
Dump the labels and go with real device names, OR get really tight with the labeling method. There are pros and cons for each. Read up (google) and decide.
If you stick with real device names, you WON'T have this problem. |

If your gonna use Gentoo, go with the Gentoo standard and forget the Redhat method even if you can get it to work.
You'll save yourself trouble later on. |
