Hi there,

I can’t boot my new Laptop (HP Elitebook 840 G) with CentOS-7-x86_64-LiveKDE-1804.iso. Boot proccess stops very quick with kernel panic.

Is there a ISO-Image with more recent kernel, maybe 4.17 from elrepo?

Mit freundlichen Gr

  • Not that I’m aware of, but nothing stops you from doing your own respin ?

    livecd-tools is available through Extras and so can be installed directly through yum For the kickstart files we are using, they are in git :
    https://github.com/CentOS/sig-core-livemedia

    So you can use that one as a base kickstart, just add the repo you need
    (like elrepo) and rebuild ?

    Cheers,

  • I have an experimental kernel based on 4.14.x LTS from kernel.org for x86_64 .. it is the same source code that we use for the armhfp arch. I
    use this on several x86_64 machines without any major issues and we keep it fairly up to date based on the LTS kernel set from kernel.org.

    You can get it here:

    http://mirror.CentOS.org/altarch/7.5.1804/experimental/x86_64/

    Here is an example repo file (look for Experimental Repository):

    https://wiki.CentOS.org/SpecialInterestGroup/AltArch/i386

    (that works for both i386 and x86_64)

    Right now, the released kernel is 4.14.52 .. but I should be releasing
    4.14.61 later today.

    Thanks, Johnny Hughes
