2009-10-30 Thread Paul van Genderen
This happens on all my Xen domU's, my test environment is now dead.

Here are perfectly reproducible steps to trigger this bug:

1. xen-create-image --verbose --hostname domx.example.net --ip=192.168.1.x 
--dist=intrepid
2. once it's up, ssh into it
3. apt-get --no-install-recommends update-manager-core
4. do-release-upgrade
5. follow the steps (answer y on everything)
6. once it's rebooted, ssh back in, it's running 9.04 now
7. do-release-upgrade

** Changed in: ubuntu
   Status: New => Confirmed

[Bug 398214] Re: Karmic Koala stopps dead after /scripts/init-bottom

2009-10-23 Thread Leonard Broman
I just tried to upgrade to the RC and I got a similar problem. My disks
do not mount anymore. The system seems to recognise my disks but not the
partitions anymore. I'm left at the busybox console and there are no
drives under /dev/disks/by-uuid/. Maybe theres a more specific bug for
my case if anyones seen it?

Unfortunately I'm away until tomorrow, but if this is a problem with the
release candidate as well, I think it's quite alarming.

Is anyone prepared to escalate this issue?

Hi,

try "nomodeset" parameter during boot:

1. Start your machine and select the "kernel linux" with the "down" button.
2. Press "e" on your keyboard.
3. Select the "kernel uuid=..." entry with the "down" button and type "e" again.
4. Change "quite splash" to "nomodeset". Press "Enter" and "b" on the keyboard.

Thank you chisao, you saved my night!

Here is what I did:

1. Ensure you are connected to your router by DHCP.
2. Start your machine and select the "recovery kernel linux 2.6.31-10" with the 
"down" button. Press "e" on your keyboard.
3. Select the "kernel uuid=..." entry with the "down" button and type "e" again.
4. Change "ro single" to "rw init=/bin/bash". Press "Enter" and "b" on the 
keyboard.
5. Wait until booting stops and press "Enter".
6. "root@(none):" is displayed. Type in the konsole:
dhclient eth0
7. After this operation the connection to the internet is activated and you can 
type in the konsole:
apt-get dist-upgrade
8. Wait 10 min until upgrade is done.
9. Reboot your machine and select "kernel linux 2.6.31-9" in grub.

Ubuntu works.

I tried to start "kernel linux 2.6.31-10" after the upgrade but this
didn´t work. Probably the next dist-upgrade does it.

2009-09-17 Thread chisao
I fixed it somehow...Many steps and I don't know if I remember them
all.First...press e on recovery to edit.change ro single to rw
init=/bin/bash.Then type dhclient eth0 (connect an ethernet cable first
if you havent already).If it manages to connect (which it should) type
aptitude update and then aptitude upgrade.It will update (mine failed a
few packages because something was not mounted...I dont know exactly
what happened).After this I tried to boot using the latest kernel but it
froze sayin somethin about kernel panic..initramfsvsyncI
dont remember exactly.Anyway I chose the previous kernel in recovery
mode run fsck, rebooted again with the previous kernel in recovery and
the options were there.I chose make free space then fsck and then resume
normal boot and I got in kde.I ran aptitude again aptitude autoremove
apt-get autoclean apt-get autoremove aptitude update aptitude upgrade
and all that stuff...rebooted with new kernel and after a few messages I
got inHope it helps.

2009-09-15 Thread rabbitear
You could make a quick dirty "script" to fix it, I usually would do that
manually, but it WILL mess up anything else in the /etc/ that you changed
for your purposes.

but what your doing would be:

finding all files in /etc
if the file has *.dpkg-new
cp that to just *

Any compiled package has the specific file name/path of the "config" it
needs to start up, it doesn't want config.dpkg-new.  You can see that it is
a different file name yourself.
ubuntu's karmic install doesn't take into account that you will quit in the
middle.

2009-09-15 Thread rabbitear
well "my solution" wouldn't be an absolute one as I was saying, again, I'll
tell you it looks like the /etc/ files are being mv'd to the *.dpkg-new, and
WITHOUT ANY of the '/etc' file, WHATEVER IT IS xorg, init etc.  That
"system" xorg, init, etc. will not work.

So, where ever your upgrade stops, meaning it was stopped at any point in
time in the upgrade, which means it was a different "system" xorg, init,
etc, things that you would notice on your system not booting.  There is a
/etc file missing.

to summery THERE IS NO CONFIGURATION ANYMORE in that specific "system".

It seems to rename them, so that hacked up fix would to to rename them back.
That is all.


by the word "system": X windows, Init scripts, Gnome, (well gnome is over X,
remember that too) .. This bug is about "Quitting the upgrade premature,
then you notice it doesn't boot"  --- other things (to this effect, say you
don't have a syslog) could actually happen.

I'm just trying to describe and define it here.
not offer the "right" fix, thats for the ubuntu guys :)

peace.

Seems like the update manager held two packages back, the upstart and

i just did a dist-upgrade on karmic and i have the problem.
The solution above does not work.

I found out that if you use through group the init=/bin/bash and change the ro 
option to rw you can have some short of a console to work with the filesystem.
When i tried to upgrade i had the error that initscripts have been kept back 
and if i would try to force install then i have to lose all xorg packages!

2009-08-27 Thread rabbitear
Well, the *.dpkg-new files themselves will be always (not to everything, but
to anything where the /etc/* is new and different) be put there.

So, any time you may "quit" an upgrade in the middle, you probably will have
those.  I don't recall myself quiting a dist-upgrade before (maybe I did
maybe I didn't, so I am now trying to talk about Karmic).  What I'm getting
at is that IF, "it" (the Karmic upgrade stopping) replaces /etc files that
are critical, with the "conf".dpkg-new's, AND is erasing the "conf" etc, AND
they are needed to boot, or start X or anything else..  As you can see, the
system is looking for the "confs" and can not find them.  So it fails.

That was MY issue, I am not that much in the debian/ubuntu loop, just have
been using them for awhile.

All other issues are possible.  If it was a similar issue of this type, I
would need to guess that some other critical "confs" have been changed,
adding the extention of .dpkg-new (which is normal) AND deleting the old
"conf" at the same time.

I really don't know much about what "apt" is actually suppose to be doing
under the hood.

Like I say, any issue is possible, but maybe (this may or may not help) read
log files, all of them, just after boot, and failing.

The solution in #3 doesn't seem to work for me. There are no files with 
.dpkg-new extensions in the /etc/init/ directory.
All files have a .conf extension like rc.conf or tty3.conf

Sorry if I overlooked something and made a fool out of myself.

Same problem here, have to boot in Hardy again because Karmic doesn't
show a GNOME interface anymore.

Re: [Bug 398214] Re: Karmic Koala stopps dead after /scripts/init-bottom

2009-08-25 Thread rabbitear
I'll try to write my email alittle bit more clear, atleast my Hack to that
specific issue: (because now I've switched to Arch, and it is probably a bad
excussion):

You could do it two ways.  One is boot from a usbkey, live version, or a cd,
knoppix or anything that you can get your console on the machine and mount
drives works fine.

You mount your drive, goto the "etc/init" directory and rename those files
(all of them) so they do not have the .dpkg-new extention, just the original
name.

If you mounted your ROOT onto /mnt, you would be looking in
/mnt/etc/init

thats all, the way I did it was to use the boot option 'init=/bin/bash' (via
grub or lilo etc)  because I didn't have a usbkey or cdrom drive.  In that
case you are already on your on ROOT.

[Bug 398214] Re: Karmic Koala stopps dead after /scripts/init-bottom

2009-08-23 Thread Al
I confirm this issue. I did upgrading from kubuntu 9.04 to 9.10 alpha and at 
some point when setting up downloaded packaged the system just freezed reacting 
only to the power button pressed for 6 sec. 
Consequent reboots (doesn't matter if the recovery kernel was used or not) 
freezed the same way after the line:

Begin: Running /scripts/init-bottom ...
Done.

I also blamed a line like "Clocksource tsc unstable (delta = -127665427 ns)" 
right after the lines above but adding "notsc" parameter to the kernel 
eliminated the warning and kept freezes.
The fix in the message #3 rabbitear helped (though I didn't touch fstab).

2009-08-16 Thread rabbitear
Same thing happened to me.

The fix (hack) how I got it to but was (boot another way CD, etc), goto
the /etc/init/ directory and you'll see everything has .dpkg-new
extentions.. take those extentions off of all files in that directory
and reboot that harddrive again.

I also got rid of the UUID's in fstabs (replaced back to there device
name) but that probably didn't have to be done.
