Kernel compile failure!

[Edgar Arroyo]

Hi, I got this error during a patch install:

Compiling conf.c...
Loading the kernel...
ld: Unsatisfied symbol "wsio_get_service" in file /usr/conf/lib/libpci.a[superio_centif.o]
1 errors.

I did 2 installs that required rebuild of kernel and they both failed with the same error. Is there a DEPOT with ***ALL*** the patches for HP-UX B.11.00 that I can reinstall and fix everything on this Visualize B2000?

My C3000 has HP-UX 10.20, what can I do to get it to 11i?

together with not being 100% sure, I think B2000 does not support anything more than 10.20. This may be the reason why you are getting this error. It sounds like it is looking for an io service and can not get it which may be due to the deficiency of old b2000 hardware.

to get 11i, your best and actually the only legal way is to contact the HP sales. There are people selling these sets of cdroms on ebay but legitimacy of this idea is questionable at best.

Fist, when loading the patches, did you get all dependencies that the patch needed as well? That is normally where I see problems like that when compiling the kernel. YOu MUST either already have the dependencies installed, or include the dependencies in the patch bundle and install them all at once.

As far as 11i on a B2000 goes it is definitely supported. Check the following link:

You best bet would be to back up your data and do a clean fresh install of HP-UX 11i on the B2000. I would not try an upgrade from 10.20 to 11i. I think you would have too many problems.

Hi,

Try this link,

http://www1.itrc.hp.com/service/cki/docDisplay.do?docLocale=en_US&docId=200000070865926

The itrc doc id is KBRC00006788.

Look for the section "Looking for wsio_get_service ... "

Hope this helps.

I give up... I tried what the document said and it will not let me reinstall PHKL_20165...

I'll just install 11i from scratch on both my machines... Anybody has 11i for sale used?
