how to list components in a package?
by Ranjan Maitra 10 Feb '15

10 Feb '15

Hi, I am trying to figure out how to list the rpms in, say: @base-x or @printing or @fedora-release-nonproduct and so on. Any help?

rescue kernel
by Patrick Dupre 10 Feb '15

10 Feb '15

Hello, I tried to generate a new rescue kernel. I did: /etc/kernel/postinst.d/51-dracut-rescue-postinst.sh $(uname -r) /boot/vmlinuz-$(uname -r) I did not get any thing done. Thus I checked the file: /etc/kernel/postinst.d/51-dracut-rescue-postinst.sh and commented the line: [[ -f $INITRDFILE ]] && [[ -f $NEW_KERNEL_IMAGE ]] && exit 0 There is already and lod rescue kernel thus it does not generate a new one! Is it normal? Then I got: grubby fatal error: unable to find a suitable template (due to new-kernel-pkg --install 3.18.5-101.fc20.x86_64 --kernel-image /boot/vmlinuz-0-rescue-f14e53f3162847d4ae17fd1ca988e33c --initrdfile /boot/initramfs-0-rescue-f14e53f3162847d4ae17fd1ca988e33c.img --banner "Fedora 20 Rescue f14e53f3162847d4ae17fd1ca988e33c") Why?

The worst part is that when I tried to contact support they told me "I did notice however you are not using a @ redhat.com email. This is required to place an order."

dracut failed to create symbolic link /dev/resume
by Patrick Dupre 07 Feb '15

07 Feb '15

Hello, In fedora20: I get dracut failed to create symbolic link /dev/resume and then cannot fing VolSysUsr0 and I cannot boot I do not know if these 2 issues are correlated. Any this what I did: I cloned /boot and / and a new disk and I removed the old disk /boot is on an ext4 partition, / is on an lvm partition: now /dev/mapper/VolSysUsr2-root (before on /dev/mapper/VolSysUsr0-root) clone has been done with cp -a (It sued to work). I modified properly /boot/grub2/grub.cfg and the new /etc/fstab I also try tu run in selinux=0 It looks like that it need to find the old lvm volume /dev/mapper/VolSysUsr0 during the boot but cannot find it of course. VolSysUsr2-root is found (the other lvm volumes are inactive) The UUID are correct How can I fix this issue? Thank for your help. In the grub.cfg: menuentry 'Fedora release 20 (Heisenbug) (on sdc /dev/mapper/VolGrpSys2-root)' --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'osprober-gnulinux-simple-66528cb3-5298-4882-976c-02935cfac589' { insmod part_msdos insmod ext2 set root='hd2,msdos6' if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd2,msdos6 --hint-efi=hd2,msdos6 --hint-baremetal=ahci2,msdos6 --hint='hd2,msdos6' ac2542fe-cd0b-4461-b656-965778d4a055 else search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root ac2542fe-cd0b-4461-b656-965778d4a055 fi linux16 /vmlinuz-3.17.8-200.fc20.x86_64 root=/dev/mapper/VolGrpSys2-root ro vconsole.font=latarcyrheb-sun16 rd.lvm.lv=VolGrpSys2/root LANG=en_US.UTF-8 initrd16 /initramfs-3.17.8-200.fc20.x86_64.img } =========================================================================== Patrick DUPRÉ | | email: pdupre(a)gmx.com Laboratoire de Physico-Chimie de l'Atmosphère | | Université du Littoral-Côte d'Opale | | Tel.
