12:35 | <cliebow_> well. i ha an idea ..but dont think i can pull it off..there is onemac mini in the buildng..was gonna try it..but it is intel based..
| |
12:40 | <xuxa> now that you mention it, I'm not sure if my friend's school's minis are PPC or intel based
| |
12:40 | I suppose they might be intel-based, in which case they would certainly work...
| |
12:40 | cliebow_: thank you anyway, I'll get more info from the principal and go from there
| |
12:40 | <cliebow_> not that it matters..just different kernel
| |

| |
12:50 | <pscheie> jammcq: you around?
| |
12:51 | <jammcq> ya
| |
12:52 | <pscheie> got a message from someone off the K12 list
| |
12:52 | he's got his server up, but client is failing to boot
| |
12:52 | can I pastebot the output for you to look at?
| |
12:53 | <jammcq> what's the problem he's having?
| |
12:53 | <pscheie> it's about 12 lines
| |
12:53 | 0000:00:04.0: Unknow PHY transceiver found at address 31
| |
12:53 | 0000:00:04.0: using transceiver found at adress 1 as default
| |
12:53 | eth0: SiS 900 pci fast ethernet at 0xddc00, IRQ 3 , mac address I think
| |
12:53 | Running dhcpd on port 67
| |
12:53 | eth0 media link off
| |
12:53 | input PS/2 Generic mouse
| |
12:53 | <jammcq> but in general, what's the problem?
| |
12:53 | <pscheie> ERROR! dhcpd failed!
| |
12:53 | Kernel panic
| |
12:54 | it says dhcpd failed but the fact that it says kernel panic means a kernel was downloaded, right?
| |
12:55 | general problem is client won't boot
| |
12:56 | <jammcq> looks like the card isn't being detected correctly
| |
12:57 | <pscheie> There are a whole bunch of lines about 'Unknown PHY transceiver found at address ' followed by an incrementing number between 0 & 31
| |
12:57 | <jammcq> what kernel are they using?
| |
12:57 | <pscheie> dunno
| |
12:57 | * pscheie checks k12 ver 5 & 6 | |
12:59 | <pscheie> k12ltsp 5 = ltsp 4.2 w/kernel 2.6.17.3
| |
13:00 | my k12ltsp 6 box is off ATM. I'll ask him which version he's got.
| |
13:01 | It sounds like you're suggesting that the problem could be fixed by using a different NIC in the client, eh?
| |
13:02 | <jammcq> could be
| |
13:02 | or.... try putting the card in a different slot
| |
13:02 | or.... see if there's a bios upgrade for the motherboard
| |
13:02 | other than that, I dunno
| |
13:03 | <pscheie> well, don't worry about the solution; I'm just trying to understand the problem that the errors are describing
| |
13:03 | <jammcq> it could be that the card isn't fully supported in Linux
| |
13:04 | maybe he could try booting an Ubuntu live cd or a knoppix cd on that machine, see how well the card behaves then
| |
13:04 | <pscheie> good idea
| |
13:05 | btw, are there any edubuntu devs/activists in the US?
| |
13:05 | <jammcq> umm, dunno
| |
13:06 | dtrask and moquist helped at the last ubuntu dev mtg
| |
13:06 | sbalneav and myself
| |
13:06 | although sbalneave isn't exactly US
| |
13:06 | <pscheie> is ogra the only official ubuntu-ltsp dev
| |
13:06 | <jammcq> I think so
| |
13:06 | <pscheie> sbalneav is close enough
| |
13:07 | I'm planning our next NCLS, for June 14-15
| |
13:07 | love to have you come if you can
| |
13:07 | wanted to get an edubuntu person if I could manage to
| |
13:07 | <jammcq> hmm
| |
13:07 | june's a pretty busy month around my house
| |
13:08 | but as we get closer, we'll see
| |
13:08 | <pscheie> NELS is June 19-22, which I'm actively trying to not conflict with
| |
13:08 | if you can't, I understand, but wanted you to know there is a standing invite for you
| |
13:08 | <jammcq> thanks, I appreciate that
| |
13:09 | <pscheie> we're gonna have it at a community college this year
| |
13:09 | Jeremy Anderson, who was there last year, teaches at the college
| |
13:09 | He says his school WANTS to host it, not just willing to host it
| |
13:10 | Plus, I may do some contract LTSP setup work for them.
| |
13:10 | Perhaps we'll develop the first LTSP Admin class ;-)
| |
13:11 | Only downside is last year's location was about 5 minutes from my house; the college is about 30 minutes away.
| |
13:11 | <jammcq> which direction?
| |
13:12 | <pscheie> There are two locations: SW and NW
| |
13:12 | SW = Eden Prairie, NW = Brooklyn Park
| |
13:12 | <jammcq> anywhere near the airport ?
| |
13:12 | <pscheie> Airport is SE, about 20 min. from the SW location
| |
13:13 | you just take I-494 west and turn off by the shopping mall
| |
13:13 | <jammcq> no promises, but if I do come, we'll need to find a much better steakhouse than what we had at the mall :)
| |
13:13 | <pscheie> I'd prefer the SW location, but Jeremy, who teaches at both locations, says he has better equipment available at NW loco
| |
13:14 | We're having lunch w/his boss tomorrow to discuss it.
| |
13:14 | sbalneav would probably prefer the NW location, as it would shave about 45 min. off his drive
| |
13:15 | We can go downtown to Murray's, Home of the Silver Butterknife Steak(TM)
| |
13:16 | It's arguably the most famous steakhouse around
| |
13:16 | <jammcq> let's just hold the conf there :)
| |
13:16 | <pscheie> There used to be a great Irish bar right next door, too
| |
13:17 | not sure if it's still there, and I haven't worked downtown for some time now
| |
13:17 | One plus of the college: They have a nice cafeteria/dining room, according to Jeremy
| |
13:18 | makes lunch easier
| |
13:18 | although I kinda like going out to local places
| |
13:18 | but since time is the tricky part, having a nearby place to eat during the conf. could be handy
| |
13:18 | Then we can go to Murray's for supper
| |
13:23 | jammcq: the fellow just wrote back; he's got the 2.6.17.3 kernel.
| |
13:24 | I'll tell him to try another nic in the client

19:56 | <jodell> any ubuntu/debian ltsp experts in the crowd?
| |
19:58 | <nofxx> Anyone sucessfuly booted 64 bits clients ? Semproms 64
| |
20:01 | <jodell> no. I have run into issues with 64bit server and 32 bit clients using debian
| |
20:02 | seems that using apt in the chroot caused 64bit libs to install
| |
20:07 | FernandoMM has quit IRC | |
20:09 | <nofxx> jodell: so if you are on 64 it'll install a 64 binaries for the clients ?
| |
20:09 | humm..I'm testing edubuntu 64 now....
| |
20:12 | <jodell> sorry was away for a minute.
| |
20:12 | that was my experiance.
| |
20:13 | As i am thinking about it I don't think there should be an issue booting a 64 but client.
| |
20:13 | <nofxx> well... let's see what will happen, with ubuntu i386 I couldn't boot my 64 bits clients.... but I had only one kind of mobo and processor to test... so I don't know if it is something to do with what
| |
20:13 | <jodell> I do this with sun hardware
| |
20:13 | <nofxx> jodell: yep..there shoulnd't...
| |
20:14 | <jodell> what were you seeing as an error on teh client?
| |
20:15 | <nofxx> Kernel panic: attempted to kill init !
| |
20:15 | after "register network 17"
| |
20:16 | nothing more after the panic line
| |
20:16 | <jodell> that was with a 32 or 64bit kernel?
| |
20:16 | <nofxx> 32
| |
20:17 | ubuntu 6.10 .. i think its the 2.x.16-10.... hmm i guess...
| |
20:17 | <jodell> hmm...
| |
20:17 | <nofxx> im trying to install edubuntu now on the machine .. can't check
| |
20:19 | <jodell> interesting.
| |
20:20 | feels like a nic driver issue, but that is an uninformed gut guess.
| |
20:21 | what nic do you have?
| |
20:21 | <cliebow_> if you wamt 32 bit chroot..bild om 32 bit machome..tar it up and move it to a 64 bit machine..or sparc..or a ppc server
| |
20:22 | the server doesnt care what chroot it offers..but the clients do
| |
20:22 | <nofxx> jodell: you mean the client nic?
| |
20:22 | onboard nvidia... ecs mobo.....
| |
20:23 | <cliebow_> im running ppc chroot on intel on this machine
| |
20:23 | <jodell> nofxx: make sure the module is in the intird (initramfs)
| |
20:23 | <nofxx> cliebow_: hmm...cool info
| |
20:24 | <jodell> cliebow: all teh 32bitters were diskless ;-)
| |
20:24 | luckily the server was a new build so I just rebuilt as 32
| |
20:24 | <nofxx> jodell: oh my...pardon my lack of knowledge.. heheh how to do that?
| |
20:24 | <cliebow_> build a chroot on a 64 bit machine it should be portble to any other server that offers basic services
| |
20:25 | <nofxx> chroot = all the files that ltsp serves to the client , right?
| |
20:25 | <jodell> nofxx: add the module name to <chroot>/etc/initramfs/modules
| |
20:25 | <cliebow_> yep
| |
20:25 | <nofxx> jodell: humm...gonna boot and try.. tnx.. let's see
| |
20:26 | <jodell> once you add the file you need to rebuild the image.
| |
20:26 | <cliebow_> /opt/ltsp/whatever...as long as the chroot matches the client
| |
20:26 | <jodell> you said ubunt
| |
20:26 | <cliebow_> u
| |
20:26 | <nofxx> edubuntu dont want to be installed today.... hehe... linux hates me...
| |
20:26 | <jodell> longday
| |
20:26 | <cliebow_> need sto wait til after full moon
| |
20:27 | <jodell> nofxx: did you install the ltsp-server package?
| |
20:27 | <nofxx> jodell: I did the easy way.... "ltsp-server-standalone"..and more 3 or 4 commands
| |
20:28 | <jodell> yes, same for debian.
| |
20:28 | <nofxx> jodell: i have 2 32 bits machines.. and both works.....
| |
20:28 | one is a laptop, btw
| |
20:28 | the 64 don't
| |
20:28 | ok...booted....let's see the modules
| |
20:29 | <jodell> to rebuild the image just run ltsp-update-kernels
| |
20:29 | <cliebow_> it is not trivial to muck with the modules in the initramfs
| |
20:29 | <nofxx> i have only initramfs-tools/ that's right?
| |
20:30 | <jodell> yep.
| |
20:30 | file modules.
| |
20:30 | <nofxx> ok.. inside "modules"...nothing on it
| |
20:30 | <jodell> hang on a minute though
| |
20:30 | <cliebow_> there is expert knowledge involved to alter the initramfs
| |
20:31 | <jodell> cliebow is right. I have to add a sis190 to my initramfs
| |
20:31 | <nofxx> no prob in fuc&*&* everything up... can't get worse.. xD
| |
20:31 | <jodell> let's make sure that your module is not already there.
| |
20:31 | <nofxx> xDD
| |
20:31 | <cliebow_> packing it in..
| |
20:31 | <nofxx> how to find what I need to add ?
| |
20:32 | <jodell> what borad/nic did you have?
| |
20:32 | cliebow_: deb/ubuntu makes it pretty simple.
| |
20:32 | <nofxx> the manual just says the north and south bridges.... nothing about the onboard lan...
| |
20:32 | <jodell> manufacturer/model?
| |
20:32 | <cliebow_> nofxx: with all respect to ogra..i think you need to ltsp-server-standalone on a 64 bit machine and use that to boot your client

20:39 | hehe but I have no idea how to translate this to that file
| |
20:40 | <jodell> let me look.
| |
20:42 | <nofxx> the bios says NIVIDA BOOT AGENT.... just for the records.... it says reverse enginered nForce drivers... network 17..... kernel panic......
| |
20:43 | <jodell> looks like forcedeth.. let me see if it is int eh default initram.
| |
20:46 | <nofxx> ah...it changes... but its always after "NET: Registered protocol family 17"......panic
| |
20:46 | <jodell> hmm.. not finding it
| |
20:47 | <nofxx> the module ?
| |
20:48 | <jodell> if you want to try it, add "forcedeth" on a line in <chroot>/etc/initramfs-tools/modules
| |
20:48 | no "
| |
20:49 | <nofxx> (yes/no)?
| |
20:49 | xD
| |
20:49 | <jodell> once that is done run ltsp-update-kernels
| |
20:49 | leave out tehe " from the line.
| |
20:49 | <nofxx> ok
| |
20:51 | ok... testing now!
| |
20:51 | need to restart the serv?
| |
20:52 | <jodell> no. the ltsp-update-kernels jsut rebuilds the boot image adding the new module
| |
20:53 | but you have to give it he chroot. sorry i forgot that
| |
20:53 | so: ltsp-update-kernels /opt/ltsp/i386
| |
20:53 | tehn reboot the client
| |
20:55 | <nofxx> jodell: no go... Kernel panic....
| |
20:56 | <jodell> it was worth a shot...
| |
20:56 | <nofxx> xD
| |
20:56 | cool...
| |
20:57 | <jodell> cliebow_: what is your dist?
| |
20:57 | <nofxx> maybe adding the broadcom module there ?
| |
20:58 | <jodell> nofxx ironically I have the same nvidia chipset. mine uses the forcedeth module.
| |
20:59 | i am using it fo rhte server thoug.
| |
20:59 | <nofxx> i see... let me check if I placed "forcedeth" correctly there...
| |
21:01 | yup it is... chroot is under /opt/ltsl/i386 on ubuntu right?
| |
21:01 | <jodell> that woudl be the default
| |
21:02 | <nofxx> yup... so its there...
| |
21:02 | so only the try edubuntu 64 choice is left for me
| |
21:03 | <jodell> if you can put a disk in the system (or a cd and run a live image)
| |
21:03 | you can do little more digging to see what the kernel call that device.
| |
21:04 | or at least find out if it will load all the way with a
| |
21:04 | "normal" install.
| |
21:05 | <nofxx> hmm. got it... gonna leave it for tomorrow then... the machines aren't mine and I'll need to open to install the cd drive
| |
21:05 | ty very much jodell
| |
21:05 | <jodell> there is a usb image floating around out there.
| |
21:05 | Sorry I cn't help.

21:23 | <jodell> I am seeing a strange issues with syslog on tehe client.
| |
21:24 | I must restart syslog on th client for remote loggin to happen
| |
21:24 | I have edited <chroot>/etc/init.d/ltsp-client-config and if I add a restart
| |
21:24 | at the end of the start process it seems to work.
| |
21:25 | I am setting the dhcp option as well, but that is not helping
