First time F10 install went well. One thing I did
differently in installing F10 was to:
1) Use the Volume based filesystems

I noticed that on every reboot, one must enter the password
long before seeing a grub display. Hmm... maybe for a server
this is not the way to go, but for a workstation, it's probably ok.
Anyway, the initial kernel I started with is:
(1) kernel-2.6.27.5-117.fc10.i686
I proceeded to get the latest updates and this was approx. 1 week ago.
I later added programs I wanted installed, configured the services I
wanted,
etc., etc., and everything went well. I was able to reboot, no
problems.
But then a few days later, more updates came through, but specifically
a new kernel was added:
(2) kernel-2.6.27.9-159.fc10.i686
Rebooting, I got the messages:
======================
ata1: ACPI get timing mode failed (AE 0x300d)
Loading /lib/kdb/Keymaps/i386/qwerty/us.map
Eh? Sure that's not "/lib/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty/us.map" (/lib/kbd NOT
/lib/kdb and no capital K)?
If what you posted is what's really being displayed, then we have
serious problems. The correct directory is provided by kbd RPM.
[hang]
So, I never got to the point where I needed to enter
the encrypted disk password for continuance.
To be sure, I rebooted back to the original kernel (1),
and it booted just fine. Leaving it there, I continued using
the system, but got yet another kernel update:
(3) kernel-2.6.27.12-170.2.5.fc10.i686
Same problem reported in (2) above. So I am still
stuck at using my initial kernel at (1).
Is there anything I can do or to check to understand why
I am not able to use the latest kernels?
If the system is looking for the keymap you've shown, it won't find it,
the console won't be set up and things will come to a screeching halt.
I run 64-bit kernels so I can't test it and I don't know where it's
getting that path from. I have run all the kernels you show and they
run fine here. None ask for that funky keymap path.
I double-checked and got that path wrong initially.
The correct path shown on boot up (but appears ONLY
with the later newer kernels) are:
/lib/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty/us.map
It still hangs. The interesting thing is, as I said, I can
boot with the first kernel (1) installed but not the ones
following. Still scratching my head...
Thanks!
