 Posted: Sat Sep 23, 2023 8:31 am Post subject: [SOLVED] Dist-bin config is not working for gentoo-sources |
 |
|
Hi. I want to switch from dist-bin kernel to gentoo souces, I've changed symlink using eselect kernel, then copied bin kernel config from boot to /usr/src/linux then run inside there
| Code: | | make oldconfig && make && make install_modules && make install && dracut -f |
Now when I boot compiled kernel I get
| Quote: | | Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown block(0,0) |
What could be wrong? Bin kernel with the same config is booting fine

It's modules_install, not install_modules. If you had run the commands separately you would have noticed the error.

Yea, I was typing commands from my memory, probably it was modules_install because this prompt ends with dracut logs and && wouldn't let it execute it if there was a typo |

The other posiblity is dracut -f recreated your running kernel's initramf. Specify a version. Why did you even include force option? It's necessary only if you recreate running kernel's initramfs. Not that it's wrong but it's suspicious.

Although old, we have an FAQ that addresses this: KC13: I just installed a new kernel and it won't boot. Have you read that FAQ and checked the points it makes regarding your error? If you still need help, please pastebin the working and broken kernel configurations, and show us how you boot each of them (grub.cfg lines or equivalent). |

That's it! running | Code: | | dracut --kver 6.1.53-gentoo-r1-gentoo-dist |
solved it. It was -f because my knowledge of how dracut work is poor, After re-reading some docs I've increased some understanding of it. Thank you very mush. |
