From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.2; Linux) (KHTML, like Gecko) Description of problem: Kernel 2.6.9-1.6_FC2 was the last working kernel version that work with my fc2. Next last one's folowing give kernel panic pointing to harddisks lock. Could'n add fc3. That gave me same result. So what can i do now ? Stuck with fc2. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Kernel 2.6.9-1.6_FC2 was the last working kernel version 2.Next one's folowing give kernel panic pointing to harddisks lock 3. Additional info:
can you paste the exact panic text please ?
Can not copy/paste because of kernel panic, so i wrote it down and write it again here. Booting 'Fedore Core (2.6.10-1.14_FC2)' root (hd0,5) Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83 kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.10-1.14_FC2 ro root=LABEL=/ rhgb quiet [Linux-bzImage, setup=0x1400, size=0x165f85] initrd /boot/initrd-2.6.10-1.14_FC2.img [Linux-initrd@0x1febd000, 0x32d1e bytes] Uncompressing Linux...

Did not get last five kernel's to work with my computer !!! Look like that harddisk does'nt get sync ? Is this possible to fix ?

-Me myself. Well, I get it work when someone told me that add parameter "ide=nodma" to grub.conf. That slows down a little harddisks but must get come along with this. So now finally i got kernel 2.6.10-1.771_FC2 working.
Fedora Core 2 has now reached end of life, and no further updates will be provided by Red Hat. The Fedora legacy project will be producing further kernel updates for security problems only. If this bug has not been fixed in the latest Fedora Core 2 update kernel, please try to reproduce it under Fedora Core 3, and reopen if necessary, changing the product version accordingly. Thank you.
