PC: SONY VAIO 505 laptop It was OK to use SONY CDROM(PCGA-CD51) for installation of RC2. But when system was booted after installation, CDROM is recognised as TOSHIBA CDROM,when mounted cdrom, system told: [root@localhost /root]# mount /mnt/cdrom mount: special device /dev/cdrom does not exist SONY CDROM was OK when on RHL6.2. Some info are listed below, hope the bug will be resolved ASAP, otherwise we will face the many,many complaints from SONY users. --- cardctrl ident: Socket 0: product info: " ", "NinjaATA-", "V1.0", "AP00 " -- cardctrl config: Socket 0: Vcc 5.0V Vpp1 0.0V Vpp2 0.0V interface type is "memory and I/O" irq 5 [exclusive] [level] function 0: config base 0x0200 option 0x61 status 0x00 io 0x0180-0x0187 [auto] io 0x0386-0x0386 [8bit] -- cardctrl status: Socket 0: 5V 16-bit PC Card function 0: [ready] -- /proc/interrupts CPU0 0: 199101 XT-PIC timer 1: 1796 XT-PIC keyboard 2: 0 XT-PIC cascade 5: 0 XT-PIC ide1 8: 1 XT-PIC rtc 9: 471 XT-PIC usb-uhci, i82365 12: 4829 XT-PIC PS/2 Mouse 13: 1 XT-PIC fpu 14: 226659 XT-PIC ide0 NMI: 0 --- /proc/ioports 0000-001f : dma1 0020-003f : pic1 0040-005f : timer 0060-006f : keyboard 0070-007f : rtc 0080-008f : dma page reg 00a0-00bf : pic2 00c0-00df : dma2 00f0-00ff : fpu 0180-0187 : ide1 01f0-01f7 : ide0 0386-0386 : ide1 03c0-03df : vga+ 03e8-03ef : serial(auto) 03f6-03f6 : ide0 03f8-03ff : serial(auto) fc90-fc97 : ide0 fc98-fc9f : ide1 fca0-fcb3 : usb-uhci
Did the system install properly from the CDROM device? Are the only problems after you reboot after a successful install?
Sorry to report the bug to anaconda, it is really a bug of kernel. Yes, system was installed properly with that magic code (boot:linux ide2=0x180,0x386) from SONY CDROM. For the second question, yes, only SONY CDROM has problems.
Please verify against the Wolverine beta, as this is supposed to be fixed.
Are there any further problems? I will mark this fixed if not.
