Internal Error (using SAM)

[Lino Martinez_1]

1) In SAM Kernel Configuration
2) Configurable Parameters appears the next message:

Internal error: The kernel discovery tool used by SAM failed.
Kernel changes cannot be made by SAM. The standard error output of the command
is shown below:
getkinfo: Syntax error in system file.
Incorrect driver/subsystem statement(s): fddi

Each driver/subsystem shown above is not valid for one of the following
reasons: The driver (including any aliases) is not recognized; there is no
support for this driver in the kernel libraries; the driver is not supported;
one or more dependency drivers for this driver are missing, not supported, or
not included in the kernel
libraries.
Be sure all kernel libraries from HP-UX product filesets are installed, and
that the driver/subsystem names shown above are valid.
Refer to the SAM logfile for more information. getkinfo: Unable to read
the kernel file "/stand/vmunix".

3) I can't see the parameters.

This behaviour is a result of confusion about the fddi driver in the kernel.
It can be remedied fairly easily.

cd /stand/build
/usr/lbin/sysadm/system_prep -s system
vi system
remove the driver: fddi
mk_kernel -s system
move the new kernel into place and reboot:
mv /stand/vmunix /stand/vmunix.prev
mv /stand/build/vmunix_text /stand/vmunix
shutdown -r

If you need the fddi driver, you'll need to reinstall that from the application
cd.
