Description Wolfgang Ulbrich 2011-08-18 21:49:41 UTC 
Description of problem:
kernel freeze during the udev boot process. If udev boot the system components the system freeze.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.40.3-0.fc15
kernel-2.6.40.2-1.fc15
kernel-2.6.40.2-1.fc15 without Patch10: CVE-2011-2905.patch

How reproducible:

Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
system freeze

Expected results:
no freeze

Additional info:

Sorry, i've no log information about this bug because at this time during the boot prozess nothing is logged.
With kernel-2.6.40.2-0.fc15 the system boot correctly.
I've try kernel-2.6.40.2-1.fc15 without Patch10: CVE-2011-2905.patch but it doesn't help.
So, i think the problem occurs with the linux-3.0.2 patch.
Also i've try the 2.6.40.3-0.fc15 debug kernel but i find no more info about this bug in my logs.

With a aktual fc14 installation on the same system i've no problems.

If you need more info's let me know, or pls can you help me to use a debug-kernel to get more information.
Comment 1 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2011-08-20 23:31:21 UTC 
OK, after an aktual firmware and bios update of my controller, my system starts well with all mentioned kernels.
So i will closed this report.
