Hangs computer during boot
Last modified: 2008-05-06 21:16:19 EDT
Description of problem: During Boot of the Test2 of FC7 6.91 DVD iso The computer locks up after the following 4 lines: io scheduler noop registered io scheduler anticipatory registered io scheduler deadline registered io scheduler cfg registered (default) Computer is a T3508 Emachine with an Intel Celeron D @ 3.33GHZ and 512 MB DDR SDRAM Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
FC7 Test 1 6.90 did not have any problems on this same computer.
Fedora 7 test bugs should be filed against "devel", not against test1/2/3. This isn't obvious, I know. Moving this report so it isn't lost. This is a bulk message -- I apologize if this was actually meant to be targeted against a different release. If so, please fix or let me know. Thanks.
It would be good to know if the current build has this fixed. You can grab an iso from.. http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386/os/images/boot.iso or you can try the vmlinux/initrd from http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386/os/isolinux/ if you are comfortable adding an entry for it to /boot/grub/menu.lst
with the boot.iso from above the computer still hangs but here is the debug info: io scheduler cfq registered (default) Calling initcall 0xc0746617: blk_trace_init+0x0/0xa4() Calling initcall 0xc0746830: audit_classes_init+0x0/0x40() Calling initcall 0xc04f88d2: pci_init+0x0/0x2c() Calling initcall 0xc0746e28: pci_sysfs_init+0x0/0x35() Calling initcall 0xc0746e5d: pci_proc_init+0x0/0x5f() Calling initcall 0xc0746ebc: pcie_portdrv_init+0x0/0x47() Calling initcall 0xc0746f03: aer_service_init+0x0/0xf() Calling initcall 0xc07470a6: fb_console_init+0x0/0x10f() Calling initcall 0xc0747ac1: vesafb_init+0x0/0x271() Calling initcall 0xc07481ac: acpi_reserve_resources+0x0/0xc8() Calling initcall 0xc0748fbc: acpi_fan_init+0x0/0x51() Calling initcall 0xc07490d4: irqrouter_init_sysfs+0x0/0x33() Calling initcall 0xc0749248: acpi_processor_init+0x0/0xc5()
booting with the option acpi=off avoids the hang.
