Getting lots of module errors

[ghost]

When I try to install on a fresh Gallium OS 2.0 install, I get these errors and then I can't boot into my system after a restart and have to reinstall Gallium OS.

I can confirm I'm getting the same module errors as the comment above when trying to install the linux-image-4.7.1-ph+. The strange thing is that the files that it says are not found do in fact exist but modinfo does not see them apparently. Then on boot up I get the following error and I can't start with the 4.7.1 kernel;

/scripts/init-top/unbind-ehci: line 15: can't create /sys/bus/pci/drivers/ehci-pci/unbind: nonexistent directory

But again, the referenced directory does exist on my system.

I'm running a dual-boot Xubuntu 16.04.1 on a Samus with Chrome OS that I did with chrx and I've been using Raphael's kernels for a while, currently on 4.4.2.

P.S. @penetrance it's not necessary to reinstall your entire OS. When you install a new kernel it doesn't uninstall your old ones automatically. You can always load the previously working older kernel from the GRUB menu > Advanced options (which is what I did). Then you can just uninstall the new non-working kernel. I know Gallium OS disables the GRUB menu by default but try the recovery mode or something and boot into the old kernel or just uninstall the new non-working one and you should be back to normal.

[raphael]

hmm could you try disabling module compression? (Enable loadable module support -----> Compress modules on installation). That is clone the repo, run make nconfig in the build/linux directory edit the option and rebuild / reinstall the kernel.

[chepurko]

When I run make nconfig in the build/linux directory I get a fatal error:

HOSTCC scripts/kconfig/nconf.o In file included from scripts/kconfig/nconf.c:13:0: scripts/kconfig/nconf.h:18:20: fatal error: curses.h: No such file or directory compilation terminated. scripts/Makefile.host:108: recipe for target 'scripts/kconfig/nconf.o' failed make[1]: *** [scripts/kconfig/nconf.o] Error 1 Makefile:544: recipe for target 'nconfig' failed make: *** [nconfig] Error 2

BTW I've never complied and installed kernels from source so I have little knowledge about it.

Update: Never-mind, I found out I have to install the libncurses5-dev package.

[chepurko]

Welp, there goes my Xubuntu installation! 😄 After poking around and finally figuring out how to successfully complete sudo make install, I restarted and I can't boot past SeaBios or even get the GRUB menu to try a different kernel. How the heck did that happen?

Here's what I had to do to successfully compile and install the kernel:

$ sudo apt install libncurses5-dev lzop
$ git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/raphael/linux-samus
$ cd linux-samus/build/linux
$ make nconfig

The I disabled module compression (Enable loadable module support -----> Compress modules on installation)

$ make -j4
$ sudo make modules_install
$ make bzImage
$ sudo make install

So now I guess i'm back to Chrome OS...

[reynhout]

@penetrance there's a test kernel 4.7 for GalliumOS that includes the audio patches. Check the comments on the other issue tracker.

[chepurko]

I've started over with a fresh GalliumOS install on the entire disk. I just tried to install the linux-image-4.7.1-ph+ again and I am getting the same module errors as above.

[chepurko]

Just ran the kernel compilation again on my fresh GalliumOS 2 install and it worked. I did not have to do the make bzImage this time.

The only issue I'm having is sound not working as described in this issue.

So is it safe to say that the module compression in the deb packages is what breaks installation on at least some machines?

[reynhout]

@chepurko just to make sure: do you need additional kernel config over what the GalliumOS kernel provides (aside from working audio)? If not, there's a GalliumOS kernel with working SAMUS audio in the galliumos-testing repo.

[raphael]

@chepurko I don't understand why the kernel packaged for Debian would fail to load compressed modules but it does seem to be the problem. I'll build the next release without compressed modules.

[chepurko]

@raphael I'm wondering if this occurred only on my machine and the OP's or on many other Debian/Ubuntu users.

@reynhout I tried the test kernel, it works awesome! Thanks a lot! I didn't know about this repo. What's the deal with this kernel in the testing repo, is it supposed to move through to beta and into stable eventually? Best place to track?

[raphael]

I just pushed release v4.7-3 which upgrades to Linux v.4.7.2 and does not compress modules on installation.

[reynhout]

@chepurko see https://github.com/GalliumOS/galliumos-distro/issues/100#issuecomment-241174776

@raphael sorry for distracting, just want to keep GalliumOS users in the least-complicated/most-supportable config that will work for them. :)

[chepurko]

Installation worked fine with v4.7.2, thanks. Can probably close this now.

[raphael]

@reynhout, no problem. Will have to take a look at the Gallium kernel.
