kernel modules lost

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I upgraded to the latest kernel 2.4.18-18.8.0 and used it for a day.  
Recently, I upgraded kde to 3.0.5 and was in the process of creating 
mozilla 1.2 rpm's when x crashed.  It would not restart, so I rebooted.  
On startup, a large number of error messages about modules not being 
available appeared.  Among these was the fs modules for vfat, so fstab 
could not be executed.

I restarted to the former kernel, then removed the kernel 2.4.18-18.8.0 by 
rpm -e.  I tried to install it again (rpm -ivh kernel-2*i686.rpm) and it 
won't install:

[root /downloads/8kernel]$ rpm -ivh kernel-2*i686.rpm
Preparing...                ######################## [100%]
   1:kernel                 ######################## [100%]
error: unpacking of archive failed: cpio: lstat failed - Input/output 
error

I am able to run ok on the older kernel version ... is there some problem 
with the new, or did I do something to crash it?  And now, why can't I 
reinstall it?
