Hi,
I am trying to install intel media server studio essential 2015 R5 on the latest version/build of CentOS (3.10.0.229.4.2). I am following the steps provided in the getting_started_guide, but after the "rpm -Uvh kernel-3.10.*.rpm" step, I am not able to reboot the system. During reboot, I am getting the following error: "file /vmlinuz-3.10....... not found. Error: you need to load the kernel first". I repeated the process 3 times and got the same issue. It seems that there is an issue with the kernel installation step.
Could anyone tell me how to fix this problem? Specifically, I am following these steps:
Processor type: Intel Core i7-4790K
1. OS installation: Installed CentOS 7 with "Development and Creative Workstation" base environment and the following add-ons: additional development, compatibility libraries, development tools, hardware monitoring utilities, office suite and productivity, and Python. This installs kernel 3.10.0.*.x86_64 of the CentOS with root and "admin" user.
2. Installing SDK UMD:
# su
# ./install_sdk_UMD_CentOS.sh : successful
# mkdir /MSS
# chown admin:admin /MSS
# exit
3. Building the kernel:
# cp build_kernel_rpm_CentOS.sh /MSS
# cd /MSS
Made following changes in build_kernel_rpm_CentOS.sh file:
INTEL_MSS_RELEASE_NUM=5 (original 4)
CENTOS7_LATEST_KER_BID=229.4.2 (original 229.1.2)
I also tried without making any change to this file, but the end result is still the same: not able to reboot!
# ./build_kernel_rpm_CentOS.sh ; the build step seems to be successful
4. Installing the newly built kernel:
# su
# cd /MSS/rpmbuild/RPMS/x86_64 : there are 3 rpm files in this directory:
kernel-3.10.*.rpm, kernel-devel.*.rpm, kernel-headers.*.rpm
# rpm -Uvh kernel-3.10.*rpm : this command (as suggested in the start guide) probably installs only the first one. I tried to install all three also in my third attempt, but the end result is the same
# reboot
While rebooting, I get stuck with the following error: "file /vmlinuz-3.10....... not found. Error: you need to load the kernel first".
Please let me know what is the possible cause of this problem and how can I resolve it.
Thanks and Regards,
Kapil
