I'm (still) at a loss on this one right now. can you attach dmesg -s 128000 output from the last working kernel please? also, if you boot with init=/bin/bash, does it get far enough to give you a shell ? if so, doing the same, and dumping it somewhere like /tmp/dmesg.new for later attaching here may also have some clues.
One hint, is that I can boot the new kernels if I add the following to the boot line. ide1=noprobe The CDRom drive does not work if I do this. I will attach the dmesg info in the next attachment
Created attachment 119671 [details] New Kernel with ide1=noprobe Could not boot without noprobe line. Without the line I get the following interesting lines 1F0 IDE Port Busy 170 IDE Port Busy ATA_PIIX Probe of 0000:00:1F Failed with Error -16 ... AHCI Probe of 0000:00:1F[B] Failed with Error -12
Created attachment 119672 [details] With the working kernel 2.6.13-1.1542_FC5
ahhh, I've met this one before. booting with hda=noprobe should have the same effect (and make your CD drive work). The big question is why the probe order of libata/ide changed.
This may be a dumb question but is there anything linking bug 171487 to this one ?
This seems to be fixed with the latest kernel. I can boot without hda=noprobe and the cdrom still works. 2.6.14-1.1807_FC5
