Description of problem: Install crashes with: <0>Kernel panic - not syncing: drivers/block/ll_rw_bloc.c:1281: spin_lock (drivers/scsi/scsi_scan.c:de84fc14) already locked by drivers/scsi/scsi_lib.c/1326. (Not tainted) Hardware is vmware. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): FC4T1 installer. How reproducible: Install workstation. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run installer on vmware 2. Select workstation 3. Start install Actual results: Lots of Gtk errors about Gtk.FALSE being deprecated followed by the kernel panic. Expected results: Install completes normally. Additional info: Hopefully the file/line pairs in the panic message will allow the bug to be tracked down and fixed.
fixed in later builds ?

[This comment has been added as a mass update for all FC4 kernel bugs. If you have migrated this bug from an FC3 bug today, ignore this comment.] Please retest your problem with todays 2.6.12-1.1398_FC4 update. If your problem involved being unable to boot, or some hardware not being detected correctly, please make sure your /etc/modprobe.conf is correct *BEFORE* installing any kernel updates. If in doubt, you can recreate this file using.. mv /etc/sysconfig/hwconf /etc/sysconfig/hwconf.bak mv /etc/modprobe.conf /etc/modprobe.conf.bak kudzu Thank you.
