From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.0.8) Gecko/20061025 Firefox/1.5.0.8 Description of problem: Both of the recent 2.6.19 kernels generate errors when booting and prevent system from booting. Having a difficult time getting screen captures so the following is basically me just trying to write down the things I see but hopefully it helps: HP CISS Driver (v 3.6.14) ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:04:03.0[A] -> GSI 51 (level, low) -> IRQ 20 cciss0: <0x46> at PCI 0000:04:03.0 IRQ 20 using DAC blocks= 35553120 block_size= 512 heads= 255, sectors= 32, cylinders= 4357 blocks= 426784320 block_size= 512 heads= 255, sectors= 32, cylinders= 52302 blocks= 426784320 block_size= 512 heads= 255, sectors= 32, cylinders= 52302 blocks= 35553120 block_size= 512 heads= 255, sectors= 32, cylinders= 4357 cciss/c0d0: p1 p2 blocks= 426784320 block_size= 512 heads= 255, sectors= 32, cylinders= 52302 Buffer I/O error on device cciss/c0d1, logical block 0 cciss cmd f7e0000 timedout ...lots more of the Buffer IO errors and timedout - goes downhill from here... The last 2.6.18-1.2849.fc6 kernel did not have this problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.19-1.2881 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Boot system Actual Results: Errors as above Expected Results: System boot without errors Additional info: Eventually, it contines on trying to boot but gets lots of timeout errors, and seems to stop trying to get past loading rpc idmapd, although it might go past eventually.... To me the root of the problem in the scsi driver though
Created attachment 144070 [details] messages log of problem Got a log file with the problem from boot till I rebooted using the last 2.6.18 fc6 kernel...
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Can you please try with a recent kernel and let us know if the problem still persists. Try Fedora 9, 10, or rawhide.
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 9. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '9'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
I am still getting periodic emails on this even though it is closed. Hopefully this message stop the requests. Thanks.
