Error messages on latest kernel update

Issues & Assistance
1

I don't know if the errors in the below update output are something that can be ignored or are an actual problem. I'd like to know one way or the other before doing a restart. Thanks

So i messed up my kernel yesterday accidentally see this, and after i fixed it and did a full system update i had the
Deprecated feature: REMAKE_INITRD
error too, although i have no idea what
Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 5.15.8-zen1-1-zen (x86_64)
means, check the make.log

Would someone please take the time to answer this thread? Thanks

You've got 2 things going on that I can tell...first is

Commenting out the line with "REMAKE_INITRD" fixed it for me.

Tested by adding the vanilla kernel.

Of course I run Arch so I had to actually watch the sausage being made.

Next

Error! Bad return status for module build on kernel: 5.15.8-zen1-1-zen (x86_64)

Not sure about this one, I'd look at the make log to see whats going on.

Your problem, about a contentless post, it contains no new knowledge, to push up is not only rude and frowned upon in forums, but an imposition.

We are neither your free search engine nor your personal problem solving staff.

As usual, Black Arch DE receives no advice from us whatsoever.

7

The main thing I wanted to know was if it was going to be ok to reboot and have the system boot into the new kernel update without any issue and if that was just a erroneous message. I have done the searches and there was only one thing that I came up with and it has to do with USB WiFi which I don't have. I wasn't asking for help resolving the issue I just want to know from what's posted if I can reboot without issue. If it is going to be an issue it's not a big deal for me to reinstall using the non-blackarch ISO. Just would like to know one way or the other. Thanks

8

Where is the difference between expecting help and wanting to know?

Passing over my post tells me that you don't care if you are rude here in the forum.

There could be consequences.

Why do you have all those dkms modules for devices you don't seem to have in your machine?

I mean if we are good enough to help you out we would. I don't understand why post another message to help you out as the ones good enough will obviously be reading this thread to read your comment and would not be ignoring the rest of us can't do much. :man_shrugging:

11

SGS I didn't pass over your post. I answered you directly by clicking reply directly on your post. If it seemed like I bypassed your post that was not the case. As for the difference between expecting help and wanting to know there is huge difference. I did not ask for help to fix the possible issue. I simply asked if you guys thought it would be safe to reboot or not. If a reboot isn't suggested and it would be better for me to just reinstall to be on the safe side that's all I really want to know.

dalto as for the dkms modules They are whatever came from adding backup kernels. I opened the kernel dialog and installed the hardened and the lts kernels as I always do. I like to have 3 installed just in case one goes bad.

12

Those are network drivers for network adapters that don’t seem to be in your inxi. Those would not have come from installing kernels.

I see they are in the package list:

You didn’t address your unnecessary posting and bumping.

That was rude again.

You are trying to distract from the causal issues.
You have only one interest, that they solve your “problem”, everything else does not matter.

If someone asks me the time and I tell him, then I helped him.

Then to say he did not ask for help, he just wanted to know the time is nonsense.

15

I didn't address it cause I got the message loud and clear and didn't see a need to rehash it. As for asking for help or asking for an opinion again there is a huge difference.

16

To bring this to a close,

This will not prevent you from rebooting but if you have a network device that requires that driver then it won’t work. However, dalto says you don’t have a related network device, so that’s fine.

You can also use the rollback feature to revert back to a previous state - this is why it’s included in Garuda by default.
