I guess I have same serious problem with modules. The serial one is always
"initializing", and macserial seems to not exist, this is what I got:
[root@fomalhaut]# rmmod serial
serial: Device or resource busy
running "depmod -a" (after changing modules.conf) I do not get macserial
loaded
[root@fomalhaut]# insmod macserial
insmod: macserial: no module by that name found
Moreover after updating to YDL2.1 I have this problem. When I come to the
login prompt I got this message:
"Machine check in kernel mode
Caused by (from SRR1=41030): transfer error ack signal"
"vector: 200 at pc=d992d084, lr=d9931b78, msr=41030, sp=d6ce9cb0[d6ce9c00]
current=d6ce8000, pid=554, comm=modprobe
mon>"
that I can skip by typing "x"...
And this is the last part of messages I get with "dmesg":
[root@fomalhaut]# dmesg
...
