Description Jason 2005-11-27 18:53:35 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051118 Fedora/1.5-0.5.0.rc3 Firefox/1.5

Description of problem:
I did a fresh install of FC5T1 on Thursday (Thanksgiving).  I have been updating to rawhide daily since then.  Every kernel since 2.6.14-1.1709 freezes at udev initializing hardware...

I have an adaptec 2930U2 scsi card connected to 2 western digital hard drives.  I have an ide cd-rom burning attached to the system as primary master.  The motherboard is a tyan tiger 100.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  install kernel 1709 and watch the system boot
2.  install any kernel newer than 1709 and watch the system freeze
3.
  

Expected Results:  the newer kernels should work

This happens to me also on a HP Compaq NC4010 laptop. IDE harddisks with LVM.
1709 is the latest kernel that boots here.

Comment 2 Dave Jones 2005-12-01 09:46:55 UTC
this was likely the ehci bug. Can you try the latest from
http://people.redhat.com/davej/kernels/Fedora/devel  please ?

(Rawhide should also have it fixed now, but there are other issues you may hit
in that kernel preventing you from testing).


Comment 3 Kjartan Maraas 2005-12-01 10:18:33 UTC
This is fixed with the latest kernel for me at least.

Comment 4 Jason 2005-12-01 14:47:05 UTC
Today's rawhide (kernel 1729) fixed it for me.  Thanks everybody.
