fstab problems
by William Steibel 31 May '06

31 May '06

Having problems with samba, I foolishly edited the fstab file. Of course fedora 5 will no longer boot. I have used knoppix and the fc5 rescue disk to get into the system and edit the fstab file back to the original. In each method I run into the same problem. I cannot edit the file because it is a read only file. All attempts to save the edited file fails. I am a linux novice,so excuse my stupidity. I appreciate the solution to this problem Bill Steibel bsteibel(a)amnh.org

So after the last reboot when I turned off lm_sensors (on the 26th around 6pm mountain time), the machine bombed within 12 hours. I rebooted again and that's when I realized that i2c-core and i2c-i801 were still being loaded. I checked /etc/modprobe.conf and that wasn't it. I checked inside /etc/modprobe.d/ and there was nothing in there. I also checked inside of /etc/sysconfig and found the i2c-i801 driver listed in hwconf. Now I don't know if that's what was causing the two to get loaded. If someone more knowledgeable about those modules and their interaction with hwconf (or any other part of the system) can explain that part to me, I'd appreciate it. Anyway, I manually removed (unloaded) those two modules (through rmmod) and it's been almost 3 days now that I haven't seen any errors nor crashes. Enough time to cry glory? Maybe, but I'm still cautious. I'll continue to keep watch and see what happens. If it bombs again (with those two modules -not- loaded) then I'll go ahead and apply this patch and go from there. Thanks for the help so far. Ashley -- H | I haven't lost my mind; it's backed up on tape somewhere. +-------------------------------------------------------------------- Ashley M.

SELinux question
by Zoltan Boszormenyi 31 May '06

31 May '06

Hi, I have installed a second harddisk that was mounted as /home1. To free up my / filesystem a bit, I moved /var/lib/pgsql to /home1/pgsql with mv it retained the original contexts and then created a symlink at the original place. Now, postgresql doesn't start unless I exclude it from SELinux. Furthermore, "fixfiles relabel /home1" destroyed the file contexts under /home1/pgsql. I tried to RTFM on SELinux contexts and permissions, discovering that I need to install selinux-policy.noarch so I can finetune the policy. But no files under /usr/share/selinux/devel/include/ contain references to /var/lib/pgsql, not even /usr/share/selinux/devel/include/services/postgresql.if. So, how can I fix the current situation and include /home1/pgsql in the postgresql context/domain? I would like to relabel it to recover the context... BTW the same principle would apply if one would like to create another tablespace for postgresql under another mount point... Best regards, Zoltán Böszörményi

Madwifi not working with latest kernel upgrade, broken dependency.
by Gerry Tool 31 May '06

31 May '06

Yesterday I did a yum update on my laptop. A new kernel, 2122, and many other packages installed, but madwifi from livna would not install due to a dependency on madwifi-kmod-common. The new kernel and the installed madwifi do not work together. I can get madwifi to work if I boot to the previous kernel 2096. The missing dependency for madwifi and kmod-madwifi is madwifi-kmod-common = 0.0.0.20060317 is not available. Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks. Gerry

May I know how do I put the output of echo ex`date -d yesterday +%y%m%d.log into cat /home/IT/xxxx > kr.log ? [root@w2 krweblog3]# echo ex`date -d yesterday +%y%m%d.log` ex060530.log [root@w2 krweblog3]# vi krweblog.sh #!/bin/sh # KRWEBLOG3= echo ex`date -d yesterday +%y%m%d.log` cat /home/IT/$KRWEBLOG3 > kr.log __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
