Hello guys,
After preupgrading from fc14 to fc15, the kernel-fc15 was not installed.
So I fail to boot my upgraded fedora. When I extract
kernel-2.6.38.6-27.fc15.i686.rpm manually, I found that there is no
initramfs-2.6.38.6-27.fc15.i686.img in the RPM archieve.
I tried to create an initramfs file by dracut using livecd:
* mount /media/FEDORA /dev/sda6 # the disk where I installed fedora
ln -s /media/FEDORA/lib/modules/2.6.38.6-27.fc15.i686/
/lib/modules/2.6.38.6-27.fc15.i686
dracut initramfs.img 2.6.38.6-27.fc15.i686
* When I used the manully created initramfs.img to boot my system, it
complained "modprobe FATAL could not load
/lib/modules/2.6.38.6-27.fc15.i686/modules.dep". Actually, modules.dep file
doesn't exist in kernel RPM archieve.
So how can I install kernel manually? How to create a initramfs properly?
Thanks, any advices will be appreciated!
