5.1 base. Fails on both x86_64 and ia32. This in on an Intel SDV box with
82G33/G31 graphics.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL 5.2 beta kit (-83 kernel)

How reproducible:
Try to install RHEL 5.2 on this hardware.


Steps to Reproduce:
1. install w/virtualization selected
2.

Actual results:
reboot during install crashes/resets

Expected results:
System should reboot ok

Created attachment 296118 [details]
Requested log

Note that the attachment is from a successful i386, non-virtualization install.
With the failing virtualization install the system fails to reboot and thus the
log is inaccessible. If needed I can reproduce and then recover the install
log. Same failure can be caused by just booting the xen kernel after loading it
on top of the normal install. My test system is in that state now.
172.16.83.133.

Moving back to kernel-xen as it looks like the issue is there. See dependent bz.

Comment 4 Bill Burns 2008-03-16 10:51:39 UTC

I have isolated this to starting with the -65 kernel. -64 HV&kernel work fine
and -65 fails. Tried the -65 HV with -64 kernel and all was well.
