*SOLVED* Errors when installing OpenVZ kernel
I just installed the 2.6.9-023, x86_64 kernel on centos 4.4, via yum and it spewed out a few errors related to some modules; WARNING: No module sata_sil found for kernel 2.6.9-023stab037.3-smp, continuing anyway WARNING: No module sym53c8xx found for kernel 2.6.9-023stab037.3-smp, continuing anyway WARNING: No module sata_nv found for kernel 2.6.9-023stab037.3-smp, continuing anyway WARNING: No module raid0 found for kernel 2.6.9-023stab037.3-smp, continuing anyway WARNING: No module raid1 found for kernel 2.6.9-023stab037.3-smp, continuing anyway Installed: ovzkernel-smp.x86_64 0:2.6.9-023stab037.3 Complete! -------------------- This system has 4 hard drives hanging of the nvidia sata controller. Some of these drives configured as raid0 and raid1 and lvm. The sata_sil module is no longer used by this server so I've removed it with rmmod and removed it from. I dont want to reboot this server now to find out if the system can still se my 'sata_nv' disks as it is at a remote site. I was wondering if anyone can tell me if the sata_nv and other modules are compiled into this openvz kernel? I'm hoping it does as the kernel seems quite a bit larger than stock centos/redhats, eg almost 50% larger. Cheers.
Re: Errors when installing OpenVZ kernel
I've just found the config for this kernel and it would appear that those modules are indeed compiled into the kernel. Sorry for wasting electrons.
Hello. I am facing the same situation. Remote server, same message about sata_via. In my case, grepping the kernel shows: [root@localhost boot]# cat vmlinux-2.6.9-023stab040.1 | strings | grep -i sata_via sata_via So i can assume module is compiled in. But as i really want to be sure, please can you confirm me you were able to boot successfully this kernel? Regards
