Yes, I figured it'd be something like that once I realized there
really were two mdraid arrays, but only one rd.md.uuid parameter.
What's curious is that its absence wasn't causing a problem before the
upgrade.

Well in the end that's all that matters.

Okay.  I have figured this out after a lot of digging through Google.

I finally found this page and a post by eileon (Comment: 10)

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1085922

The problem turned on differences between a file:

/etc/default/grub

and the output of: dracut --print-cmdline

As eileon stated what is given by the output above by dracut, needed to 
be reflected in the /etc/default/grub file before you did ran:

grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

and then:

dracut -f

The problem I had was in the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX line in the 
/etc/default/grub file.  The first rd.md.uuid was supposed to be the 
uuid for the Linux RAID member disks that make up the mdraid devices 
from which you want to boot.

The second rd.md.uuid that pointed to the RAID member disks used for 
the root filesystems and LVM was missing!

Correcting both rd.md.uuid entries to reflect the correct devices 
in that file and running dracut -f before rebooting resolved my 
problem.

Thank you Chris for your assistance and pointing me in the right 
direction.

Cheers!
Bill

Do this still. Then assemble the array manually as you have been and
continue the boot normally.

These are easier done after basic target is reached, rather than at
the dracut shell. Also, the first two have bad typos so here's the
revised version:

mdadm -E /dev/sda[12]
mdadm -D /dev/md[01]
blkid

Skip this for now. I'd rather just collect info rather than change anything.

​I am having TONS of problems with f22 (af​

​ter reinstalling it
from DVD media, due to system corruption).
FOr example, after using dnf to install all the
mate packages that were previously installed (I had saved
the names of those packages in a different drive).
I had no desktop control. Mouse and KB did not work.
The one app that automatically came up (due to
settings of the mate env) was firefox , and for some
reason KB within the FF window worked, but nowhere else.
​yara ... yara ...yara..

When it rains problems, it pours :)

It's embedded in the mdadm superblock, and it might be initrd based
auto-activation (metadata 1.x and higher) may fail if the actual host
name and the one in the superblock don't match. There is a way to
update this information at assemble time with mdadm --assemble
--update=

But that might be a distraction.

No  The hostname did not change that I can see,
and I did not knowingly change it.

I am wondering why you ask the question?

The host name is redwood.

So now it's found, I'm gonna guess this is your manual attempt at
starting up the array?

What do you get for cat /proc/mdstat at the dracut prompt before you
do anything else? And also the results from

mdstat -E /dev/sda1
mdstate -E /dev/sdb1
blkid

These can be redirected to fpaste or a file. If you have network
access this early it's easiest to redirect to fpaste but I'm not sure
if it's in the initramfs.

From your mdadm.conf, you have UUIDs that do not match what's on the
command line.

cmdline:
rd.md.uuid=5a1848ce:cff64c1f:a622dc1f:e5f06d55

mdadm.conf
UUID=c45384af:aa8fc7ca:7eebaeb8:f0ca1523
UUID=524079c6:521ca76f:126164a9:3232e116

Looks like the mdadm.conf is stale and should be recreated, and
recreate the initramfs. Thing is, the rd.md.uuid ought to be enough
for dracut to startup that array, the mdadm.conf is really just about
assigning a particular md array to a particular /dev/mdX assignment,
which by the way has changed recently so there might be confusion
going on there.

You might just try renaming the current mdadm.conf, or commenting out
all of the lines, except for one:

ARRAY /dev/md0 UUID=5a1848ce:cff64c1f:a622dc1f:e5f06d55

And after saving it, use dracut -f.

New kernel will not boot after upgrade from fedora-21 to fedora-22

2016-05-23 Thread Bill Perkins

I have this system that I have been using that was running Fedora 21.  
I just updated it today (Monday) to Fedora 22.  It is an old Dell 
Optiplex GX620 with two 2TB disk drives set up with two partitions 
each in a RAID One configuration.  LVM2 runs on top of the second 
partition with several logical volumes.  This system had been running 
just fine before I did the upgrade.  After the upgrade, the system will 
not boot using one of the new Fedora 22 kernels.  It boots just fine 
using one of the old Fedora 21 kernels that did not get replaced during 
the upgrade.

I can get the system up using one of the new kernels, but I have to 
wait until it stops at a Dracut prompt.  I then manual run "mdadm --
assemble --scan" to get the RAID One partitions assembled, and "lvm 
vgchange -a y" to get the Volume Group built.  After that, I issue an 
"exit" and the system completes the boot process.  I need to figure out 
why this system will not boot without intervention.  Any suggestions 
would be appreciated.

I have tried to rebuild the initramfs with dracut, no joy doing that.

Here is some of the data:

Other versions of kernels that work just fine: 3.18.9-200 & 4.1.13-100

If all of the things other friends have guided to you don't work, please 
just try to login to Run level 1. If/Once you are at the prompt that 
asks you to login. The issue is caught, login the system using ROOT 
credentials and check for GDM installation.
# rpm -q gdm

if this command does not return any thing, please install GDM, it 
happened with me so considering same with you too.

You have that backwards, the video drivers did get updated and the ones in the 
kernel are... I can't find a polite term, let's just say not functional on many 
display systems. While you can use the vendor drivers in some cases, the quick 
way to see if this is the problem is to add
   "nomodeset video=vesafb"
to the end of the boot commands after "quiet." That should make almost anything 
boot if video is the issue.

If you are a gamer, have multiple displays, or have some need for 3D other than 
because wobbling windows a "kewl," go to it. It is not a requirement for normal 
operation.

_normally_, everything you see on screen is not related to why system did not
boot.

therefore, posting last 4 or 5 lines on screen may get you help you need.

also, try booting to level 3, then level 1 to see if system stops.

if you can boot level 3 or 1, have a look in '/var/log' to see what is in
files 'boot.log', 'dmesg' and 'messages'.

if you can not boot level 3 or 1, boot with a previous kernel, or,
installation cd/dvd in rescue mode, or, a live cd/dvd, mount drive/partition
failing system is on and read above files to see what they show.

I don't know how I can explain this problem.  I am not able to record it
or take picture of it and there is just too much information on the
screen.  If I can be told what to look for, this might help fix the
problem. 

I really don't know what to do.:-S

Press Esc (Escape) for console messages. Also, chkdsk is a Windows

Next time you boot, hold down Ctrl at the bios screen -- it will let you
select which kernel version to boot.

Most likely, the kernel version you can't boot is 2.6.32.10-90 -- I'm
having problems with it as well. Specifically, on 2 Dell laptops, one
using nvidia driver, another one using  open source radeon driver.

The former laptop has a Ati chipset and the 1705 has a Nvidia chipset.

I would suggest it is the Video driver setup that is causing the problem

Whenever I do a update that has a new kernel the kernel mod must be 
installed for the new kernel

Nvidia 195.36 proprietary  driver need mod for kernel 2.6.32.10-90

Same for Ati drivers

What are you using for a Video Card.
The problem could be when you updated your kernel your video drivers did 
not get updated.
The proper kernel mod for your kernel must be installed as well as the 
driver

I have seen this, if memory serves correct while it's doing this you can
press F7 or F8 (I can't remember which) and it shows text instead of an
image. It could have trouble starting a service or running chkdsk. Do
this and say where it is stuck.

When you report issues like this please state the kernel version you are
using. New kernels come out pretty often and even if we new which Fedora
release you are using, we wouldn't be sure which kernel version you are
using.

Immediately before Fedora boots, you should see a countdown of a few seconds.
Hit ESC or some key and you will see a menu. - This is a menu of
kernels installed.
On the trouble kernel, hit the 'E' key to EDIT the current kernel options.

Scroll to the right of the 'kernel' line.  Remove the following 2 words:
quiet rhgb
After you remove those words, hit ENTER, then B (to boot).

This should provide some information as to what is happening when the
system locks up.  What error or messages do you see when it stops.


Alternatively in the menu you can select your previous kernel to boot
so you can access your system.

New Kernel will not boot

2010-04-01 Thread Lawrence E Graves
I am having trouble with the installing of the new kernel release about
2 days ago.  When I install it and reboot my system it stops at the
Fedora sign in the middle of the screen.  It is hard for me to explain
exactly what is happening because I am not good with the technical terms
used.
