hello, I have encounter a series problem.

originally, I just want to install ulogd packages, which lead to this result:

Code:
 The following packages were automatically installed and are no longer required:
  ipset libipset2 libmnl0 libnetfilter-log1 novnc-pve
Use 'apt-get autoremove' to remove them.
The following extra packages will be installed:
  pve-kernel-2.6.32-45-pve
Suggested packages:
  ulogd-mysql ulogd-pgsql ulogd-pcap ulogd-sqlite3
The following packages will be REMOVED:
  proxmox-ve-2.6.32 pve-firewall pve-manager qemu-server
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  pve-kernel-2.6.32-45-pve ulogd
0 upgraded, 2 newly installed, 4 to remove and 121 not upgraded.
Need to get 37.2 MB/37.3 MB of archives.
After this operation, 95.2 kB disk space will be freed.


I am no brains to confirm and process, then the whole world crash. after I reboot, if I choose the pve-kernel-2.6.32-45-pve, boot failed. the whole screen is full of udevd timeout killing /sbin/modprobe.
if I choose the pve-kernel-2.6.32-34-pve, the proxmox could boot propertly, but miss pve-manager, qemu-server.
If I apt-get install qemu-server pve-manager, there is another problem.

so my question is : how to downgrade the proxmox 3.4 to proxmox 3.3

my pveversion command is missing too, so I can't tell you gay, which version I am currently on now.
 
well, there is little pve* command I could use
pvecm status

I know, I have apt-get purge ulogd immediately. but problem is still there, the new kernel seems imcompitable with my hp dl385 g8

when choose pve-kernel-2.6.32-45-pve, the system will hang on
udevd timeout killing /sbin/modprobe

any idea how to fix it?
 
I fixed it.

the reason was I added additional kernel boot options before when I installed 3.3. the default kernel is not compatible with hp dl385 g8, so I add "pci=noacpi noapic amd_iommu=on panic=20", after upgrade to 3.4, these options cause boot hang, after delete these options, 3.4 could boot successfully.
