Post subject: | Newbie: Suspend2 2.2.8.4 at startup KnoppMyth |
Hi I have "successfully" (that's what the messages said) installed knoppmyth R5E50 under Fedora 5 kernel 2.6.18-1.2257.fc5 > VMWare 6. That hardware and VMWare6 version is successfully running Win XP Pro SP1 and connects various USB2 devices. Now, when I boot the KnoppMyth virtual machine I see the following message scrolling quickly on the console Suspend2 2.2.8.4 Missing or invalid storage location (resume2= parameter). Please correct and rerun lilo (or equivalent) before suspending. The VM has 256Mbyte memory. Any idea where the or what the problem could be or how to fix it? I am trying to run a Freecom / AVerMEdia USB DVB-T device with KnoppMyth. Anyone had success with that device? Thanks Clive |

Know and ignorable. You may also notice some initial warnings from udev and apache. |

Thanks for the very prompt reply. Unfortunately, the suspend2 messages just seem to loop until the following failure messages /linuxrc: Out of file descriptors /etc/init: Out of file descriptors Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! after about 15 seconds-ish Clive |

It loops with the suspend2 message. I am a Slackware expert, but I don't quite know where to look here to disable that. |

On real systems one needs to change the /etc/lilo.conf file. The append="....." line needs to contain a clause like: resume2=swap:/dev/hda2 noresume2 (with the hda2 replaced with your actual swap partition, of course). Then you will need to rerun lilo. |

Thanks Dale the Fix Code: append="resume2=swap:/dev/hda2 noresume2"
lilo -v works perfect ![]() |

Thanks. Any chance that gets into the "pamphlet"? Or maybe it is, and I didn't see it? |

Well the install scripts are supposed to do it 'right', but don't always. I'm trying to get a fix now for inclusion in the next release. |

I've added something to the R5E50 upgrade hints under Known Issue #5. |

Just another thing: Adding the "append=" line is not enough for a SCSI disk. The reason is that the driver module isn't loaded yet at the time suspend2 gets initialized. I am using a SCSI Raid, and had to load the modules at the start, in the initrd. See http://www.mysettopbox.tv/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=13144 |
