Description Chris Ricker 2005-02-02 16:06:34 EST

kernel-smp-2.6.10-1.760_FC3 continuously reboots during bootup

This is on a Dell PowerEdge 2850 running x86-64

Reboot appears to occur after the megaraid-mbox driver loads

kernel-smp-2.6.10-1.741_FC3 boots successfully on this same box

Comment 1 Dave Jones 2005-02-02 16:40:35 EST

I think I know what this is, I'll push out a test build soon.

Comment 2 Lorenzo Luconi Trombacchi 2005-02-03 06:17:49 EST

Same problem on my Appro Dual Opteron System

Comment 4 Rik Burt 2005-02-04 12:02:56 EST

I am also experiencing the same problem.  Dual opteron on Tyan S2885
mobo.  I turned pnp os off and booted with acpi=off.  With this the
machine just stopped after setting up the LVM and the last line read:

NMI Watchdog detected lockup on CPU0CPU 0

Comment 5 Thomas J. Baker 2005-02-04 13:31:22 EST

I also get this on a Dell Precision 670n workstation. It seems after
the aic79xx module is loaded and is doing scsi discovery.

Comment 6 Troy A. Griffitts 2005-02-04 15:58:32 EST

Just confirming this same problem on my Appro dual Opteron 244.
Would like to add that:
2.6.10-1.12_FC2 (non smp) boots just fine

Comment 7 Michael Miller 2005-02-04 19:05:15 EST

I have a dual PII 333 Dell PowerEdge 2200 that freezes up while
loading the kernel.  It gets past the CPU timing check and freezes. 
I'm running kernel-smp-2.6.10-1.760_FC3 kernel.  If I boot into the
non-SMP kernel it boots fine.  The last SMP kernel booted fine it was
kernel-smp-2.6.10-1.741_FC3.

Comment 8 Sam Varshavchik 2005-02-05 01:10:28 EST

I am experiencing a continuous reboot with 2.6.10-1.12_FC2 x86_64 SMP.

Comment 9 Sam Varshavchik 2005-02-05 01:12:47 EST

I also have the same observation as comment #6: the x86_64 UP kernel
boots fine, the SMP kernel just keeps rebooting...

Comment 10 William Kucharski 2005-02-08 00:15:39 EST

Same here but it appears to only occur during a warm boot; a cold boot
will usually allow the kernel to boot, but it will often hang later
for some other reason.

Comment 12 Phil Hale 2005-02-08 09:54:12 EST

Can confirm the same issue with my Dell Precision 670N.  System
continues to reboot right after the Red Hat Nash starts.  Reboots at
initializing ramdisk.  Single Processor Kernel doesn't exibit the same
issue.

Comment 13 Chris Ricker 2005-02-08 12:34:27 EST

At least for me, kernel-smp-2.6.10-1.762_FC3 fixes this

Comment 14 Rik Burt 2005-02-08 16:10:35 EST

Kernel-smp-2.6.10-1.762_FC3 seems to work also.  Thanks

Comment 15 Paul Iadonisi 2005-02-09 15:17:03 EST

I had this problem with 760 as well  (the continuous rebooting).  762 fixes it
for me.

Comment 16 Philip Goisman 2005-02-09 16:26:24 EST

Is there a fix for 2.6.10-1.12_FC2smp yet?

Comment 17 Dave Jones 2005-02-09 17:08:16 EST

2.6.10-1.13_FC2 is in updates-testing with the same fixes.

Comment 18 Dave Jones 2005-02-10 14:34:27 EST

Just confirming that the fix works on IBM x336 (dual intel EM64T) - .13 boots
fine, .12 panics.

Comment 20 William Kucharski 2005-02-16 00:01:53 EST

Confirmed fixed in 2.6.10-1.766_FC3smp, released in updates 2005-02-15.
