I have now tried Fedora 7. The live CD runs, although it does not recognise the on-board LAN device. The I/O buffer errors on sr0 also occur. When I try to boot after installing from the live CD I get irq 18: nobody cares (try booting with irqpoll option) Disabling IRQ #18 usb3-1: device not accepting address 2, error -71 ata1.00 failed to set xfermode (err_mask=0x40) The last line is repeated 3 times, then the same for ata2.00 then for 3 and 4, which don't exist, although the error mask is then 0x4 It ends up with something about a kernel panic, being unable to sync, and an attempt to kill init The messages failed to set xfermode also occur with Ubuntu. Booting with irqpoll seems to be the answer. I tried it with the Fedora 7 I had installed from the live CD and it worked. I have now installed Fedora 9 from the i386 DVD and it has worked with that too. In fact I am using Fedora 9 to send this message. Is it possible to update the kernel to avoid the need for adding the irqpoll option? Some unknown device is spewing interrupts. When this problem happened on IBM machines it turned out that a BIOS update fixed the problem. 'noirqdebug' should work better than 'irqpoll' in the meantime... My vostro 200 has the same problem. I even could not install the fedora 9 by the DVD. This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
