Re: [Xen-users] Stretch Boot Failure

[ray@xxxxxxxxx]

Xen boot fails per the below description. 

 

I have booted into Debian (dom0) with no problem. 

 

I updated then upgraded from dom0, it booted once OK.  The second time it failed.

Should I have updated then upgraded Debian first? 

 

What would be a good recovery process?

 

BTW,  wireless doesn't work when I boot into Debian.  I had just gotten wireless to work in dom0.

Yes, rebooting worked.  I was able to exercise xl commands.

 

The next time I rebooted, the system errored.

 

The boot process progressed through a report

    Dom0 has a maximum of 4 CPUs

 

The next screen was a warning

    Failed to connect to lvmstad.  Falling back to device scanning

 

The next tow lines address /dev/mapper/mymachine-root:

    recovering journal

    clean, 399/1525920 files, 398509/6103048 blocks

 

The next 5 lines was a sequence of errors on attempting to load wireless drivers:

[    10.722951 iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: firmware:  failed to load iwlwifi-7265D-26.ucode (-2)

[    10.7xxxxx iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: firmware:  failed to load iwlwifi-7265D-25.ucode (-2)

[    10.7xxxxx iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: firmware:  failed to load iwlwifi-7265D-24.ucode (-2)

[    10.7xxxxx iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: firmware:  failed to load iwlwifi-7265D-23.ucode (-2)

[    10.7xxxxx iwlwifi 0000:02:00.0: firmware:  failed to load iwlwifi-7265D-22.ucode (-2)

 

(I do not know if this is relevant, but I just got wireless working on the laptop so I could install xen-tools.  I was able to get wireless to work through configuration of /etc/networks/interface.)

 

iwlwifi are Intel dual band wireless AC 7265 device drivers for different versions of the hardware.  I installed drivers when the system was originally built.  I only loaded the latest which was 7265D-25.  I just found 7265D-26 on Intel's website but I have no idea how to load it without a complete boot.

 

How should I progress?

 

Ray
