Congratulations, your bios doesn't like the kernel.
Try "apm=realmode" on the lilo "append" line, or on the lilo commandline
"linux apm=realmode" seemed to work OK. FWIW, I wasn't able to reproduce the oops when I booted with linux-up.
Were you using the apm=power-off option ?
This defect is considered MUST-FIX for Florence Gold release
no. the system is running with a default lilo.conf file. I just tried passing the apm=power-off option, and I didn't get an oops. Here are all of my results: linux-up --> no problems linux apm=realmode --> no problems linux apm=power-off --> no problems linux --> oops I just realized that some of the Call Trace was not included in my original posting. Let me know if you need me to attach another copy.
No need for the call-trace, it's the bios that faults. You seem to be the (un)lucky owner of a machine with a crappy bios. We can revert back to beta3 behavior, but that breaks for a hole lot of other people. The basic dilemma was <it doesn't work for a lot of people> vs <it oopses for a few, but we can give them the commandline option> Now, it woud be nice if we could make this PCI id dependend, so please post lspci and lspci -n here. (and also the brand of the motherboard + bios version is possible, as well as the dmesg output so we might be able to trigger on that)
The original oops was from a Dell PowerEdge 6300 server with 4 xeon cpus. BIOS: Phoenix ROM BIOS PLUS 1.10 A06. (Haven't determined the motherboard information yet.) The problem is also reproducible on an Acer Altos with 2 cpus. BIOS: ((I assume Acer...any other brandname wasn't obvious) v3.0 (R01-C4 01 EN) I know this is kind of cryptic, but the information is straight from the BIOS product information screen) MOTHERBOARD: Acer M19A The lspci and dmesg information will be attached below.
