I used the 2.4.5/1.0.1 RPM to upgrade my Redhat system (built
w/ XFS 1.0 CD). The kernel seems happy but upon booting reports
"unable to open initial console". I've seen this before when messing
with devfs. It basically means /dev/ is missing device files. I
read a while back that this kernel has devfs disabled by default. Is
there a trick to get the standard /dev back when upgrading from 1.0
to 1.0.1 RPM's? |
