I have not seen behavior like this before. The kernel is displaying some messages that I haven't seen before. Arjan, can you explain what the following error messages mean?: <2>EXT2-fs error (device ide0(3,5)): ext2_check_page: bad entry in directory #32769: directory entry across blocks - offset=5316, inode=33092, rec_len=28780, name_len=114 <2>EXT2-fs error (device ide0(3,5)): ext2_check_page: bad entry in directory #32769: directory entry across blocks - offset=5316, inode=33092, rec_len=28780, name_len=114 I FOUND THE PROBLEM. This PC is running BIOS titled: ROM PCI/ISA BIOS (2A5LEF09) CMOS SETUP QTILITY AWARD SOFTWARE, INC. Under menu option "STANDARD CMOS SETUP" the hard drives can be set to LBA, NORMAL, or AUTO. I had been running this for months set to AUTO. The online GRUB manual said it might have to be set to LBA. That resulted in other errors. So in desparation I set in to NORMAL and the install went to completion and seems to be running OK. The only thing that does not work is the Linksys LNE100Tx NIC with the installed tulip driver. I will call support about this. Wow. That's a new one. How would you like to proceed on this bug report? This sounds like something the kernel team should be aware of. Closing since it seems resolved. The tulip problem is logged in other bugs and should be sorted by the current errata anyway |
