From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.3) Gecko/20070320 Firefox/2.0.0.3 Description of problem: When starting the system using kernel-2.6.20-1.3017.fc7 the system stalls with the loading ata_generic.ko. This happened with the 3003 kernel as well. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kernel-2.6.20-1.3017.fc7 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Turn on your computer. 2.When you get to the grub selection choose the kernel-2.6.20-1.3017.fc7 option. 3.watch until you get the error. Actual Results: The start up stopped at the loading ata_generic.ko message. Expected Results: The system should have taken me to the gdm login screen. Additional info: I don't have any outpout, since I cant copy/paste the boot up process.
ata_generic should only be loaded as a last resort if no other driver matches your hardware. Can you attach the output of lspci -n please ?
This bug is now no longer what is happening, I have posted another report (the problems seem slightly different to me). I guess this can be closed. Just to clarify the ata_generic.ko error does not seem to be coming up anymore.
