Re: FC5: "Unknown interrupt or fault at EIP 00010006..."
by Gordon Hay
Yes, dual CPU. Two mighty 200MHz Pentium Pro...
But no, I don't think the kernel on the CD works.
This failure occurs as soon as I press enter at the initial
prompt after booting the CD.
I've tried "linux memmap=exactmap mem=640k@0 mem=95m@1m rpmarch=1586" at
that prompt, but it doesn't help.
What is the message actually telling me?

FC2 -> FC5 Update (Anacoda Problem?)
by Steve McKelvey
I am trying to upgrade from i386 FC2 to FC5 using CDs and the graphical
version of the installer. The mediacheck went fine. The preliminary
upgrade seemed to go fine through the checking dependencies stage. Once
that was done I hit "return" and got the message "Transferring install
image to hard drive." About two seconds later an error message popped
up saying I was probably out of disk space. Upon clicking on "Okay" to
that message a second error message appeared mentioning an uncaught
exception and suggesting it was probably an anacoda bug. The anaconda
log mentions something about a device being busy, presumably the hard drive.
From running a df -h it seems I have plenty of disk space.
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/hdc2 18G 6.9G 9.8G 42% /
/dev/hdc1 99M 8.2M 86M 9% /boot
none 316M 0 316M 0% /dev/shm
Any suggestions on proceeding? I know I can do a clean install of FC5,
but would prefer to upgrade if possible.
Thanks for any help you can give.

terminal behavior change
by Gabor Walter
Hi,
Please take a look at the following lines:
"\M-[A":history-search-backward
"\M-[B":history-search-forward
"\M-[C":forward-char
"\M-[D":backward-char
I don't exactly remember where I found these, but I have been using them for
quite a while. They go into /etc/inputrc and add a very nice feature to
terminal windows. You type a few letters from a previously entered command
and press the up/down keys. This will cycle through the command history but
only display the commands that match the string you entered. It makes
repeating commands a lot faster and easier.
My problem is that they worked wonderfully in FC3/FC4 but no longer do in
FC5. Anyone have any clue why?
TIA,
Gabor Walter

Dell SC 420 X- Windows Video Problem
by Damon Lambooy
Does anyone have the same problem, when trying to start/configure
X-Windows on a Dell Sc420 server with video card --- Intel integrated
graphics card E7221 the screen just blanks out, then nothing. To get
back to prompt "ctrl alt backspace" shuts down X.
I currently has Fc3 install and X works fine when trying to upgrade to
fc4 I had the same problem, so I thought I would wait for fc5 but now
that same problem.
I have the latest kernel 2.6.16-1.2080_FC5 and all the updates. Is
there a driver somewhere that will fix this?
Any help would be appreciated.

isapnp?? Is this the ah-ha moment??
by Rickey Moore
Maybe that's the culprit... yum doesn't know isapnp as a package, can someone give a heads-up on isapnp and how to get it enabled in FC5?? This may help others with other isa device issues. Ric

Problems with rsync over ssh
by Anne Wilson
I have an rsync command that works perfectly from a user terminal, using my
key. I saved the command to a file and made it executable, then attempted to
run it as a cron job. This fails with the follosing errors:
Permission denied, please try again.
Permission denied, please try again.
Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-with-mic,password).
rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes received so far) [sender]
rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code 12) at io.c(420)
Googling hasn't helped. I can find several references to it, but the only one
that seemed useful concerned permissions settings. Since it ran manually,
this didn't seem relevant, but I've made sure that they are correct according
to that thread anyway.
Can anyone give me a pointer, please?
