Kernel-2.6.11-1.1267_FC4 Boot Problem

[RUSTY]

When I boot with Kernel-2.6.11-1.1267_FC4 I get the this error
Uncompressing Kernel.....
------------------------------------
Ran out of input date

System Halt

Is that a kernel problem or should I change something to make it work ?

[Finalzone]

Possibly a problem with the kernel on your system. Did that problem happen when using with the old kernel?

[RUSTY]

No it has never happened

This is almost certainly a corrupted vmlinuz image in /boot.... could you have run out of disk space during the kernel install? Or have you been having filesystem problems? Power loss / reboot / panic shortly after the kernel rpm install?

No I did not have any of these problems kernel installs fine and everything seems to be smooth until the reboot
Actually I just tried Kernel-2.6.11-1.1268 and I have the same problem. My boot space is only 22% used

I just installed FC4T2 on a new AMD64 computer and I get the same error with the kernel supplied: 2.6.11-1.1226_FC4

Any workaround?

hmm well maybe it is a kernel problem then

Is it a SATA drive? Perhaps the problem is an inability of grub to retreive the whole vmlinuz image, not that it isn't there.

I use a SATA drive.. Using a VIA K8T800 chipset (or perhaps it was K8T800 PRO).

nope mine is 400gb ATA seagate baracuda drive

If I edit grub at boot time and remove the acpi=off in the kernel line, the kernel boots further, until it actually asks me to enter a runlevel, complaining it can't find a inittab file... problem reading the root??

I'm gonna check this out ,, what if I put acpi=on

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok I just checked and I don't see any acpi=off in grub

[Joffer]

acpi=on gives me the same error (asking me for runlevel) as just removing the whole acpi option

Ok I just checked and I don't see any acpi=off in grub

I probably got it since I installed using acpi=off as an option during bootup of installer

[RUSTY]

acpi=on gives me the same error (asking me for runlevel) as just removing the whole acpi option

I guess we have to wait for a new kernel
