Are there any messages in the logs? I was actually working on this very question all afternoon. I can now say that I can see no pattern. There is certainly nothing directly related, no oopses or anything. There may be a link with BIND failures leading to NFS automount freezes on mounts that are defined by hostnames in DNS that aren't /etc/hosts .. maybe. I mention this as a "thought in progress" only. It is more likely that the problem is the other way round. ie The failure causes BIND and NFS problems. Are you using network-based auth and/or homedirs? All the user auth is "files" based. The ordinary users are autofs'ed off /home, but the directories are on this box. However, the root user cannot log in and the home dir is /root on the root filesystem, with the passwd entry being on /etc/passwd line 1. Can you enable sysrq and get sysrq-t (or -p or -m) to see what it's doing when it's hung? I also get very long latency on ctrl-alt-del. also the FC3 kernels hang instead of rebooting... when i want to reboot, it's the reset button (after everything's been unmounted). --stig An update has been released for Fedora Core 3 (kernel-2.6.12-1.1372_FC3) which may contain a fix for your problem. Please update to this new kernel, and report whether or not it fixes your problem. If you have updated to Fedora Core 4 since this bug was opened, and the problem still occurs with the latest updates for that release, please change the version field of this bug to 'fc4'. Thank you. This hasn't happened for a while now. Sorry, not sure what fixed it. |
