skill: "modprobe" is not support ?!?!

Sat Apr 12, 2014 9:31 pm

Hi Fellow RPi's :)

My RPi had a bad startup, so i ran a fsck, and it now boots Again, but it gives me some wierd errors now :(

The problem is that when the RPi at startup loads:
kernel module snd-bcm2835
kernel module w1_gpio
kernel module w1_therm

It gives me a

Code: Select all

skill: "modprobe" is not support
For more details see skill(1).
error :(

Ok i thought an update would help with that, so i ran a:
sudo apt-get update - ran with no errors.

then i ran a:
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and is finishes with this error:

Code: Select all

Then I ran a sudo rpi-update, but it also gives me an error :(

Type "man skill" to view the manual page for skill. (As an aside, get to know the man pages. They'll save your butt from time to time.)

What do you mean by "had a bad startup?" I can't be entirely certain at this point, but it sounds like fsck made the drive readable, but you lost some data to corruption. If it was me, I'd back up my data and reinstall, since even if you were able to repair the packages you've seen to be affected, you can't be certain that everything was repaired.

I think that you lost some important files. Backup any data and re-image your sd card.
