kernel-2.6.11-1.1226_FC4 is also affected. The problem has been solved by appending acpi=off ! I have identical hardware, had the same identical problem, and the above resolution worked. Seems like some sort of ACPI bug? Yes, it's ACPI related. Using acpi=ht, my server is running with a kernel 2.6.11-1.1226_FC4 for more than 3 weeks. I see this too on HP DL380-G2 single CPU hardware. Only tested with kernel-2.6.11-1.27_FC3 and kernel-2.6.11-1.14_FC3 (the install kernel - 2.6.9-1.667 - works OK). Setting acpi=ht works for me too I suspect this may be related to the HP CISS driver update - 2.6.2 to 2.6.4 - that happened between the install and 2.6.11 kernels. Why does setting acpi=ht on this system work? P3 CPUs don't support HT, so is this in effect the same thing as saying acpi=off? I had the same problem trying to build FC4 on a proliant DL380 G2. Compaq Smart Array 5i (Rev B, ver 1.16). Using the acpi=off trick did it for me. 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. Bug still present with 2.6.12-1.1372_FC3 Originally booted with SMP kernel, oops and crash on root mount. Also hung with same config, and acpi=ht Booted OK when used UP kernel and acpi=off Can probably do further tests on a different box if needed within the next few days. The box I hit problems with today is in use so cannot play much :-) This is a mass-update to all currently open Fedora Core 3 kernel bugs. Fedora Core 3 support has transitioned to the Fedora Legacy project. Due to the limited resources of this project, typically only updates for new security issues are released. As this bug isn't security related, it has been migrated to a Fedora Core 4 bug. Please upgrade to this newer release, and test if this bug is still present there. This bug has been placed in NEEDINFO_REPORTER state. Due to the large volume of inactive bugs in bugzilla, if this bug is still in this state in two weeks time, it will be closed. Should this bug still be relevant after this period, the reporter can reopen the bug at any time. Any other users on the Cc: list of this bug can request that the bug be reopened by adding a comment to the bug. Thank you. This is a mass-update to all currently open kernel bugs. A new kernel update has been released (Version: 2.6.15-1.1830_FC4) based upon a new upstream kernel release. Please retest against this new kernel, as a large number of patches go into each upstream release, possibly including changes that may address this problem. This bug has been placed in NEEDINFO_REPORTER state. Due to the large volume of inactive bugs in bugzilla, if this bug is still in this state in two weeks time, it will be closed.

If this bug is a problem preventing you from installing the release this version is filed against, please see bug 169613. Thank you. Closing per previous comment. |
