What platform is this? This looks very similar to: http://bugme.osdl.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3147 The bug in 3147 above happens on some BIOSes when: 1) You try to load speedstep-centrino module first, which calls _PDC method. It fails beacuse BIOS doesn't support MSR based transition. 2) Then you try loading ACPI module, which does _PDC again and fails with an oops. And it was root caused to BIOS, which cannot handle multiple writes to _PDC. Can you check whether you have speedstep-centrino being tried before acpi. Try disabling speedstep-centrino in your config and check whether the failure goes away. That should say whether this BUG is same as 3147 above. 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. Please retest this bug on the latest errata kernel. (If running SMP, make sure you upgrade mkinitrd seperately _first_) |
