boot fail under kernel-2.6.16-1.2069_FC4.i686

[Yordanis Tornes Medina]

Hi

Recently, I have update my FC4 and
kernel-2.6.16-1.2069_FC4.i686 was installed, but I
can't boot my FC4 now, when it start, after loading
hardware network audio mi PC don't do anything else.

Any idea of what is happend? The new kernel uninstall
all other kernels existing before.

On two of my machines, the initrd does not get made; one fails with:
No dep file found for kernel 2.6.16-1.2096_FC5

even when I run

$ sudo mkinitrd -v /boot/initrd.img-2.6.16-1.2096_FC5 \
2.6.16-1.2096_FC5

while on the other machine, rpm stays for a very long time without
producing an initrd file:
$ sudo rpm -ihv kernel-smp-2.6.16-1.2096_FC5.i686.rpm
Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
   1:kernel-smp             ########################################### [100%]

No prompt appears again until I interrupt.

I don't understand why that is, and it is a problem for me.

I imagine that something similar is happening to you, yordy.

Any suggestions, anyone?

Rather odd that I am the only one with this problem.  Here is what
happens when I try to install the package (this is changed behaviour;
before the rpm program needed to be interrupted before it terminated):

$ sudo rpm -ihv --replacefiles --replacepkgs
/var/cache/yum/updates-released/packages/kernel-smp-2.6.16-1.2096_FC5.i686.rpm
Preparing...       ########################################### [100%]
   1:kernel-smp    ########################################### [100%]
error: unpacking of archive failed on file
/lib/modules/2.6.16-1.2096_FC5smp/kernel/drivers/crypto/padlock.ko;4457b87b:
cpio: read

I would be grateful for any suggestions.

OK, what have you left out?  You say you updated your FC4 system, yet
I see that you are installing an FC5 kernel. Something does not add
up.  Are you running FC4 or FC5 on this box?

It was the original poster, yordy, who was running FC4.  I am running
FC5 on all my boxes.  Any suggestions?

Have you tried booting a older kernel, removing the incomplete .2096
kernel, flush yum's cache, and upgrade again?
