#1152 Installation » Beowulf netinstall no more finds kernel modules » 2019-05-01 10:17:56
- rolfie
- Replies: 4
The Beowulf netinstall image dated Feb 16th 2019 which can be found under https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan/dis … s/netboot/ no more finds/loads the kernel modules, I guess because the kernel has been upgraded from 4.19-2 to 4.19-4.
Is there a rebuild wip?
BTW:
A cleanup of the branches:
https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan/dis … s/netboot/
https://pkgmaster.devuan.org/devuan/dis … s/netboot/
would make sense.
Thanks, Rolf

Here is a late follow up on this topic. I have seen the same behaviour now on a Beowulf installation in Virtual Box. Problem is unresolved so far.
I have used your recommendation so the output is in English now.
# LC_ALL=C aptitude full-upgrade

#1155 Hardware & System Configuration » Uefi trouble » 2019-04-30 20:10:37

Mainboard ASUS M5A99X-EVO-R2. Had to re-install the Windows7 hat was present on another device. This re-install screwed the Devuan Uefi entries which is normal. With the help of a life Linux called Knoppix on a stick and some fumbling around I could revive the primary Beowulf installation on the main disk. This topic is posted from the Beowulf installation.
Remaining problem is that I can't update grub so that if I want I can jump to Windows from the grub menu. I discovered the following issues with Uefi:
One of the entries in the flash cannot be read, changed or deleted by the efibootmgr. Error shown is:
# efibootmgr

update-grub just runs without error. When I try to invoke the Windows installation from grub I get an error that the UUID of the Windows (efi) partition is wrong which is not the case, its the same blkid presents.
Any suggestion what else I can do to reset the efi flash memory?

Open a terminal as root, go to /lib/cryptsetup. Use an editor you are familiar with and open cryptdisks.functions (I have used geany). Before you change something make a backup copy of the original file.
Scroll down to line 763. There you should find this code:
# Removes all mappings in crypttab
do_stop () {

The sources.list looks fine to me. The double // before merged are a bit strange, but I wouldn't care as long as the sources is correct.
That the webkit is redirected to Debian is possible.
Looks like there currently is an issue with fetching packages from the server, see also https://dev1galaxy.org/viewtopic.php?id=2800.

Look at the patch in #15, works fine.

/etc/apt/sources.list:deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged ceres main contrib non-free
/etc/apt/sources.list:deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged ascii main
You are mixing repositories. In this example remove ascii. Then it will work nicely.

#1164 Re: Other Issues » Is the debian/devuan merge working right? » 2019-04-20 18:33:53
Got 3 updates on ASCII and 48 on Beowulf on the same resource using main contrib non-free and backports.

@golinux: Thank you for the link. Just wondering why it is not advertised on the website.
Beowulf is apha, not beta or RC or even more.
- What do you mean with "It is advised to never use the Debian repos directly. Could cause much grief at some point."?
Should I not use their ISOs?
Well, either you use Debian or Devuan. The different init systems wil cause a conflict. If you want systemd you are welcome to use Debian Buster. If you don't use Beowulf. Should work on your laptop.
- Should I install mini.iso on a USB stick and boot from there?
Depends. You may write the iso to a CD/DVD and boot from there if you have the facilites to do so. Or you create a bootable stick in some suitable way and install from there. For instruction use the web. Whatever you can do and like. Use wired LAN for the installation.
BTW: the distrowatch article talks about ASCII, the stable version.
Beowulf is testing. Don't worry, looks like its working fine, got it working on my secondary PC, looks like it rock stable.

#1166 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » How to install Devuan Ceres without starting from ASCII? » 2019-04-12 19:10:41
There are a few threads in installation which deal with Beowulf install and where to find the isos. I have done a native Beowulf installation from one of the late isos and it works fine.

#1167 Re: Desktop and Multimedia » EXT4 BUG? Data loss when I have launched sigil :s » 2019-04-09 20:14:33
@OP: Don't jump to conclusions very easily. To 99.9999% ext4 isn't your problem.
Obviously you run ASCII with kernel and Mate desktop from backports. Similar to my setup except Mate, I have a X470pro chipset and a Ryzen7 working on an nvme and only ext4 as file system.
Since the PC is new, make sure all power supply and SATA connections are safely seated. Is the nvme screwed down ok?
Have you run extended self test with smartmontools? smartmontools should also indicate if there are issue with dodgy sata cables.
I also would look at Sigil. Its a HTML editor for ebooks as far as I found from Wikipedia. Are you sure that the version you are using is free of bugs and that the HTML code you handle is free of strange/faulty code?
I think there is a lot of things that need to be checked, including your RAM. Faulty RAM can also cause data loss.
Good luck, Rolf
#1168 Re: Installation » Which installer should I use? » 2019-04-09 19:56:40
It may be worth replacing the CMOS battery, if the PC has been sitting off for a while. That can contribute to such a behaviour.

I am pretty sure that ext4 does not have any significant bug. Like many others I am using it since many years and can't complain. You should look at your HW and this program you are talking about.
Run a full check of your drives with smartmontools. Maybe gsmartcontrol makes things easier to display.

Well, if I answer n, apitude wants to remove my wine4, inacceptable.
Looks like libsystemd0 is at 241 already.
#1173 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [Solved] Beowulf update holds back packages » 2019-03-29 19:40:30
My Beowulf is a clean install from netinstall, no upgrade from ASCII.
Yes, I used full-upgrade. Dependency missing from the repository?
Rolf
#1174 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [Solved] Beowulf update holds back packages » 2019-03-29 19:27:28
Installed and tried it, it just confirms the conflict with libsystemd0. The solution is to keep the currently installed version 239.3.
Thanks, Rolf
#1175 Re: Hardware & System Configuration » [Solved] Beowulf update holds back packages » 2019-03-29 19:17:17
I am a friend of apt. Neither apt full-upgrade nor apt dist-upgrade work.
Other recommendations?
Thanks, Rolf
