Description of problem: When using rawhide 20060908 on an IBM R52 anaconda hangs after loading modules Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): anaconda-11.1.0.94-1 kernel-2.6.17-1.2630.fc6 How reproducible: Everytime Steps to Reproduce: 1. Boot from iso or use initrd/vmlinuz Actual results: Kernel boots, anaconda starts, loads `ohci' then `ahci' then hangs Expected results: "Choose a Language" screen should appear and install proceeds Additional info: kernel-2.6.17-1.2630.fc6 boots OK when installed on this machine under FC5. # lspci 00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/PM/GMS/910GML Express Processor to DRAM Controller (rev 03) 00:01.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation Mobile 915GM/PM Express PCI Express Root Port (rev 03) 00:1c.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) PCI Express Port 1 (rev 03) 00:1c.2 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) PCI Express Port 3 (rev 03) 00:1d.0 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #1 (rev 03) 00:1d.1 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #2 (rev 03) 00:1d.2 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #3 (rev 03) 00:1d.3 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB UHCI #4 (rev 03) 00:1d.7 USB Controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) USB2 EHCI Controller (rev 03) 00:1e.0 PCI bridge: Intel Corporation 82801 Mobile PCI Bridge (rev d3) 00:1e.2 Multimedia audio controller: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Audio Controller (rev 03) 00:1e.3 Modem: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) AC'97 Modem Controller (rev 03) 00:1f.0 ISA bridge: Intel Corporation 82801FBM (ICH6M) LPC Interface Bridge (rev 03) 00:1f.2 IDE interface: Intel Corporation 82801FBM (ICH6M) SATA Controller (rev 03) 00:1f.3 SMBus: Intel Corporation 82801FB/FBM/FR/FW/FRW (ICH6 Family) SMBus Controller (rev 03) 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Inc M22 [Radeon Mobility M300] 02:00.0 Ethernet controller: Broadcom Corporation NetXtreme BCM5751M Gigabit Ethernet PCI Express (rev 11) 0b:00.0 CardBus bridge: Ricoh Co Ltd RL5c476 II (rev b3) 0b:00.1 FireWire (IEEE 1394): Ricoh Co Ltd R5C552 IEEE 1394 Controller (rev 08) 0b:02.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 2915ABG MiniPCI Adapter (rev 05)
Current rawhide (20060910) fixes this.
Problem is back in rawhide 20060912. Several attempts using rawhide from in between days were all successful.
While playing around I noticed on one of the tty's before it locked up that device 0000:00:1f.2 "failed with error -12"
Changed summary and component. Exact error on tty4 is: ahci 0000:00:1f.2 version 2.0 ahci: probe of 0000:00:1f.2 failed with error -12 Kernel 2.6.17-1.2647.fc6 boots fine.
Do'h! Might help if I reassign to the right people.
The problem is that the kernel is saying that the PCI id is supported by both ahci and ata_piix so it's a tossup as to which gets loaded by anaconda -- the hang then shouldn't occur. This seems to be happening with a lot more frequency this time around... I'm wondering what's changed in sata land to be tickling this more
I have the same problem on my Dell Precision M20. Same message on tty4, and my lspci-output is the same. FC6 Test 3.
Being that this is not an uncommon chipset I'm adding it to FC6KernelBlocker. /me wants FC6 goodness too.
This may have been fixed by bug #195779 - however I'm not sure how to verify that it works now.
Carl is correct, the fix for bug #195779 seems to coincide with this working for me again.
