CENTOS, Loading default keymap after a yum update...

general

Hi,

after I yum update,

I've got this error on boot.

Press 'I' to enter interactive startup.

Cannot access the Hardware Clock via any known method.

Use the –debug option to see the details of our search for an access method.

Setting clock (utc): Thu Jul 16 18:54:50 CEST 2009 [ OK ]

Starting udev: [ OK ]

Loading default keymap (us): /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit: line 396: /dev/tty0: No such file or directory

[FAILED]

Setting hostname localhost.localdomain: [ OK ]

is there a solution to that problem?

I know that is a common problem now but I don't know a solution.

please help.

thanks.

no one has this problem on linode?

I've never seen this error before so I couldn't really tell you if it's all that serious or not, but from memory, Xen Linodes have a tty1 but not a tty0, which I believe UML linode's used to have, so I think this would be the reason, I may be wrong though.

As for how to reconfigure it to use tty1, I'm not sure. Sorry.

the strange things is that I've got this error only after a yum update so now I would fix it :(

Have you tried looking in the vicinity of line 396 in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit? cat -n /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit | grep -C 10 396 is one way of doing that.

@Vance:

Have you tried looking in the vicinity of line 396 in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit? cat -n /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit | grep -C 10 396 is one way of doing that.

here the output of that command:

388 echo -n $"Loading default keymap ($KEYTABLE): "

389 else

Looks like the error occurs when it is trying to load the keyboard map (see man loadkeys for more). This is probably nothing serious in itself if your system is working otherwise. If you are successfully accessing the system via ssh directly, you may want to also try LISH and the AJAX console to see if the keyboard mapping is screwed up on one of these (would be unfortunate if you needed to use LISH or the AJAX console in an emergency and there was some weird problem!).

If /dev/tty0 does not exist on your system, I'd start looking into udev as the likely culprit. Check /var/log/yum.log to see which packages were upgraded most recently, focusing on initscripts and udev.

I can access LISH and SSH without problem…

here the yum log :(

please help

@sblantipodi:

Loading default keymap (us): /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit: line 396: /dev/tty0: No such file or directory

It is an error that really doesn't mean anything in the context of a linode. A keymap is used to map keyboard signals to corresponding letters in whatever language. Likewise, because you don't have a physical keyboard attached, this error is entirely meaningless and can be outright ignored. The closest you can get to this is lish.

You said it yourself, you can use lish and ssh just fine. No problems there, so this "problem" really isn't a problem.

That said, I do have a /dev/tty0 under my centos install.

ok,

after that, is there any reason why you have tty0 and now after a yum update I haven't anymore tty0?

:(

don't leave me alone :(

Our CentOS server also lacks /dev/tty0:

$ cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 5.3 (Final)
$ ls /dev/tty?
/dev/tty1  /dev/tty3  /dev/tty5  /dev/tty7  /dev/tty9
/dev/tty2  /dev/tty4  /dev/tty6  /dev/tty8

Doesn't seem to be a problem. I assume the same error would appear on boot for us because the relevant part of /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit looks the same. Haven't rebooted for about five months, though.

I'm glad to hear that from you… do you think that I should not worry about this error?

@Vance:

This is probably nothing serious in itself if your system is working otherwise.

If someone will find a solution to that problem I'll be glad to solve it also if it isn't so urgent :)

I don't sleep well if I know that my dear VPS has some error on boot…

My VPS is money and I can not afford to have downtime or other problem…

This really is not a problem. I just did a fresh install of CentOS and it does not have /dev/tty0.

'Fixing' it will involve messing with your udev config and/or the contents of /etc/rc.d. You run the risk of introducing errors or unforeseen results by changing things.

It ain't broke, so don't fix it.

I'm using linux for more than 12 years now and this "new theory" is quite strange for me but I can admit that it can work well… :)

You told me that you have the same problem with a fresh install of CentOS 5.3? Do you have the same error on boot???

I mean this error:

__Starting udev: [ OK ]

Loading default keymap (us): /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit: line 396: /dev/tty0: No such file or directory

[FAILED]__

@sblantipodi:

Yes, and other errors caused by Xen virtualisation / lack of physical hardware / stuff that's just not there, e.g.

Applying Intel CPU microcode update: FATAL: Module microcode not found.
/etc/rc3.d/S00microcode_ctl: microcode device /dev/cpu/microcode doesn't exist?

and

Loading additional iptables modules: ip_conntrack_netbios_ns [FAILED]

ok, since I hate see to error I can give you a tip for the last two error :)

for the first one, simply

disable the service cpu_microcode.

for the second one, edit /etc/sysconfig/iptables-config

and change this two lines from:

IPTABLESMODULES="ipconntracknetbiosns"

IPTABLESMODULESUNLOAD="yes"

to

IPTABLES_MODULES=""

IPTABLESMODULESUNLOAD="no"

If someone, will find a solution to the tty0 problem, will be really much appreciated.

You could just change the script to use /dev/tty1 instead of /dev/tty0 wherever it appears: sed -i.orig 's#/dev/tty0#/dev/tty1#g' /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit

Don't know what unintended effects that might have, though…

I don't know too what it could create, so I'll not change it…
