BULLETIN NUMBER: SWB-050

DATE ISSUED: May 10, 2006

DATE CLOSED:

AFFECTED SYSTEMS: Systems running RedHawk 4.1

RELEASE LEVEL: RedHawk Linux Version 4.1

EXPLANATION: The message 'FATAL: Module acpi not found' appears on the system console at boot time. This message originates from /etc/init.d/cpuspeed which is by default “on” for run levels 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5. The script fails to find the module acpi because it is a static kernel module in RedHawk. An oversight failed to turn off this script in the RedHawk 4.1 installation.

RESOLUTION: Use the /sbin/chkconfig command to remove the cpuspeed script from execution.

Enter '/sbin/chkconfig --del cpuspeed'
