Posted: Wed Mar 13, 2024 2:55 pm Post subject: [SOLVED] GRUB don't pick up last kernel by default

Hi,

I spotted a problem on my computer: Even if the command:

Code:

eselect kernel list

shows me I'm running 6.6.16, that was a fat lie. Inspecting showed me that in fact I am running 6.6.13 kernel, and so my nvidia-drivers wasn't properly working and got no 3D acceleration. Confirmed while checking the default grub line at boot, it use 6.6.13. Going manually on the 6.6.16 entry solve my problems, acceleration is here.

But each time I try to update it, GRUB configuration, I get this output showing the displayed order in GRUB menu entry for kernel:

Code:

root@Mephistopheles ~ # LANG=C grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

As you can see… There is this 6.6.16 at the end, and 6.6.13 at beginning.

Lazy me wants to remove older kernel, that's it. But I guess it would start again and I would not want to manually had to remove old kernel to uncorrectly fix that issue. GRUB has to sort the kernel itself, but do revert the order, somehow. I can't figure out why.

I was hoping rebuilding kernel modules, re-install GRUB and update it's configuration would be enough. I had today the same problem on my fiancée's computer, and that was fixed by this method. But not for me. Fat luck.

Below relevant ouptut, I hope:

kgdrenefort, a "eselect kernel set X" does only one thing: It changes the softlink /usr/src/linux ... nothing else ... no installation ... nothing So a "eselect kernel list" shows you the same as a "ls -l /usr/src/linux" ... It doesnt show you which kernel(s) is/are INSIDE your /boot and which of them WAS really booted. There exists a automatation in Gentoo to change this softlink when emerging a new Kernel: the Use-flag "symlink" The other question why grub-mkconfig doesnt sort the kernels correct I cannot answer and I almost suspect that it is a bug of grub-mkconfig. _________________ https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Pietinger

Hi,

I spotted a problem on my computer: Even if the command:

Code:

eselect kernel list

shows me I'm running 6.6.16

Eselect kernel list does not show you what you're running but what /usr/src/linux points to. By convention, kernel sources are found there but that does not have any binding effect whatsoever on what actual kernel you're running.

kgdrenefort wrote:

Inspecting showed me that in fact I am running 6.6.13 kernel, and so my nvidia-drivers wasn't properly working and got no 3D acceleration. Confirmed while checking the default grub line at boot, it use 6.6.13. Going manually on the 6.6.16 entry solve my problems, acceleration is here.

That's because at the time of emerging nvidia-drivers, /usr/src/linux already pointed at 6.6.16 and the modules were built against it.

Me neither. Maybe you need to look it up in the documentstion.

I was hoping rebuilding kernel modules, re-install GRUB and update it's configuration would be enough. I had today the same problem on my fiancée's computer, and that was fixed by this method. But not for me. Fat luck.

Below relevant ouptut, I hope:

Code:

root@Mephistopheles ~ # cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg

That's not the relevant code. This file is auto-generated by grug-mkconfig according to the kernels found in /boot and the configuration in /etc/default/grub.

As I already mentioned above, what /usr/src/linux points to determine which kernel will nvidia drivers (and all out of kernel drivers) will build against. When you install a new kernel, you must explicitly build the drivers against it. If you don't want to change /usr/src/linux (either through eselect kernel or manually), you can put KERNEL_DIR variable on the command line to direct portage which kernel it should build the package against.

This doesn't look relevant, but I'll take another look after I submit this and look at the better formatting after replacing all your quote with code tags, as it got too much information to handle at once and I might edit this replay later.

EDIT: nope, I didn't se anything relevant.
EDIT2: maybe compare /etc/default/grub to your fiance computer's one.

In the mean time, how do you elevate to root prior to running grub-mkconfig?

First things first, thanks for answer.

Then, about what does eselect, you are confirming my suspicion about a link of some sort that is not really in live, as showed by uname. Maybe I'm saying it bad, but anyway, eselect does necessary shows the kernel in use, that's what matters. While uname does.

Lastly, about quote/code, will edit my first post, sorry about that.

Was sure there was some useless stuff inside, just wanted to avoid wasting time to you by asking stuff I could paste already, sorry.

Doesn't meant to say it'll not work, but the system is supposed to set as default the new kernel. Until I found out how to fix this inverted order from GRUB (from older to newer instead of newer to older), I'll boot manually on the last kernel and don't clean anything: That'll be quicker to see if it works, instead of waiting for a new kernel to be compiled, wait & see is a waste of time in this case IMHO. I hope you see my point.

logrusx wrote:

I am aware of that fact, but I decided to set it anyway because if I didn't see something relevant inside, maybe you'll do, and since grub-mkconfig generate a file from this one, it seemed relevant to me to paste it aswell, just in case I would miss something.

logrusx wrote:

That could be relevant, maybe not here, but my goal was to show the output of these command once it's working on a 6.6.16 kernel.

logrusx wrote:

Well, beside we get different resolution for our screen… They have same values.

PS: Not trying to really justify myself for my mistakes, but wanted to point why I did that, will try to be more relevant in the future, but that is not always easy :). But since I prefer to be pointed at my mistakes that being ignorant, so thanks.

Well I'm not trying to blame you either, sorry if it came that way, I was trying to be thorough. Otherwise I wouldn't put that much time in it :)
This is not my mother tongue either, nor text communication is one of my superpowers, so I apologize once again.

Honestly, I'm out of ideas. I just updated mu kernel to 6.6.21 and didn't hit such an issue. I see you don't have ACCEPT_KEYWORDS defined in make.conf, which means you're running stable and we both should be using the same grub version. Is that right?

Is there anyone who can think of something else influencing grub?

p.s. can we see what's in your /boot?

EDIT: ah, I now see what the issue was. Well I had that too back when the change regarding installkernel happened but had forgotten about it. If you cleaned it up, systemd would install it with that name, yes. And just today depclean cleaned it and I read the news item and realized I now have to manually select or emerge installkernel.

6.6.21-gentoo is now default in grub menu ....

How is that helping this subject to be solved ?

EDIT: Ok, I misread you and was thinking you were actually making fun of me or trolling, but you just modified your GRUB to manually point the proper kernel by default. Right ?

Sorry !

I have to say I do not understand without more context, that's on me I guess (english skill). But I guess you are speaking of:

Title installkernel is no longer implicitly installed

/sbin/installkernel is a script called by the kernel's "make install"
as well as by the distribution kernel's post-install phase. If you are
reading this then chances are you use and rely on installkernel[1] and
what follows is essential for you.

Previously sys-kernel/installkernel was implicitly installed on many
systems via a dependency in sys-apps/debianutils. This dependency was
toggled by the "installkernel" USE flag, and enabled by default.

Until recently, sys-apps/debianutils was in turn pulled in by
app-misc/ca-certificates, an essential package installed on many
systems. However, this dependency of app-misc/ca-certificates on
sys-apps/debianutils was removed[2]. As a result many users may find
that sys-apps/debianutils and therefore sys-kernel/installkernel are no
longer part of the dependency graph and will therefore be cleaned up by
"emerge --depclean".

Removing sys-kernel/installkernel from your system WILL change the way
kernels are installed by "make install"! Instead of the versioned
/boot/vmlinuz-x.y.z that you are used to, "make install" will simply
copy bzImage (or equivalent for your arch) into /boot. This image may
not be picked up by your bootloader or its configuration tools.

To avoid surprises from such implicit dependencies from happening again
in the future, the dependency on sys-kernel/installkernel in
sys-apps/debianutils is removed. And as such, sys-kernel/installkernel
is only installed on the system if it is either explicitly selected or
pulled in via the distribution kernels (e.g. gentoo-kernel(-bin)).

User Action Required (all users)
====================

Users who currently have sys-kernel/installkernel installed, must
ensure that it is explicitly selected by emerging it:

emerge --noreplace sys-kernel/installkernel

Users who find that sys-kernel/installkernel has already been cleaned
from their systems and are therefore affected by the change in kernel
installation described above should re-install sys-kernel/installkernel
and then re-install their kernel.

emerge sys-kernel/installkernel
cd /usr/src/linux # (or other location of the kernel sources)
make install

Note that this re-installation is not required for users of the
distribution kernels (e.g. gentoo-kernel(-bin)).

Funny thing while writing that… My terminal emulator was small and only readed from «To avoid surprises from such implicit dependencies from (…)» so I'm again a donkey and run commands without having full context. Since the problem is still here I'll take time to try to understand it and apply proper edition to my system, will come soon with news about it.

Thanks for all reply.

I'm back and it's still not working.

So, I readed the message and found out a very interesting part:

«Removing sys-kernel/installkernel from your system WILL change the way
kernels are installed by "make install"! Instead of the versioned
/boot/vmlinuz-x.y.z that you are used to, "make install" will simply
copy bzImage (or equivalent for your arch) into /boot. This image may
not be picked up by your bootloader or its configuration tools.»

I'm using sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel aside sys-kernel/installkernel from beginning.

But actually, seems to be taken anyway by updating GRUB, don't know what I should expect.

Then, I tried to redo the following:

Code:

emerge --noreplace sys-kernel/installkernel

Code:

emerge sys-kernel/installkernel

Code:

cd /usr/src/linux

Code:

make install

I did not spotted any errors. Kernel 6.6.16 seems to be installed.

After, I decided to clean a little my kernel list, using:

Code:

eclean-kernel -n 3

Whick kept these kernels:

Code:

root@Mephistopheles ~ # ls -la /boot
total 165936
drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 4096 13 mars 19:22 .
drwxr-xr-x 18 root root 281 28 févr. 13:00 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 249486 4 janv. 11:03 config-6.1.69-gentoo-dist
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 265534 22 janv. 12:37 config-6.6.13-gentoo-dist
drwxr-xr-x 6 root root 113 13 mars 19:24 grub
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 35311711 4 janv. 11:03 initramfs-6.1.69-gentoo-dist.img
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 36774323 22 janv. 12:37 initramfs-6.6.13-gentoo-dist.img
-rw------- 1 root root 37170524 13 mars 19:24 initramfs-6.6.16-gentoo-dist.img
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 15669312 13 mars 19:24 kernel-6.6.16-gentoo-dist
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 6294590 4 janv. 11:03 System.map-6.1.69-gentoo-dist
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 9451928 22 janv. 12:37 System.map-6.6.13-gentoo-dist
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 13053792 4 janv. 11:03 vmlinuz-6.1.69-gentoo-dist
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 15657984 22 janv. 12:37 vmlinuz-6.6.13-gentoo-dist

Then, I rebooted right after remaking the grub.cfg configuration using grub-mkconfig as usual, just to be sure since eclean-kernel seems to do that anyway.

And I'm back to the original point, but with less kernels…

Maybe I start to mix things up, that's very me too, and I guess I'll stop to play around with my system and try to find the way to fix that or if you have a suggestion, I'm open.

I'll back up my system too…

Gladly:

Code:

root@Mephistopheles ~ # emerge -pv installkernel

These are the packages that would be merged, in order:

Calculating dependencies... done!
Dependency resolution took 3.61 s (backtrack: 0/20).

Code:

Image mémoire initiale trouvée : /boot/initramfs-6.6.13-gentoo-dist.img
Image Linux trouvée : /boot/vmlinuz-6.1.69-gentoo-dist

Image Linux trouvée : /boot/kernel-6.6.16-gentoo-dist
Image mémoire initiale trouvée : /boot/initramfs-6.6.16-gentoo-dist.img

Reemerge installkerenel with -systemd or delete all the other kernels staring with vmlinux names and reinstall them with the kernel- naming scheme if you need to keep them.

Installkernel provides different scripts for the hooks in the make scripts in the kernel sources depending on the use flags. If you don't have installkernel installed, make install will do nothing and the kernel will be located at ./arch/x86_64/boot/vmlinuz or maybe it was bzImage, I don't remember anymore. Then you would have to move it manually to /boot and rename it if you use a naming scheme. That's what we used to do back in the days of 2.x kernels, when I got into Linux.

Georgi

As we saw together on #gentoo@libera.chat, I recompiled installkernel without systemd:

Code:

USE="-systemd" emerge sys-kernel/installkernel

And re-runned grub-mkconfig.

It works ! Thanks again.

In the same time, I still do not get it, what happened and why should I compile installkernel without systemd to get the old naming scheme and thus, get back the proper kernel at top of the list.

I also guess I'll have to edit my /etc/portage/package.use/00use to add:

Code:

sys-kernel/installkernel -systemd

To keep this automatic. Right ?

To not learn ? Yeah, it is 8).

That's how you skillup, plus there is always less activity and peoples in other language than english, so…

Will close this topic for good.

Thanks, everyone.
