Description of problem:

I have FSC Celsius V830, 2 x Opteron 275, NVIDIA chipset, 
1 SATA disk, 3 x SCSI attached to Adaptec ASC-29320 U320
fedora 10 could be installed without problems, but first boot hangs.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
2.6.27.5-117.fc10.x86_64 / 2.6.27.9-159.fc10.x86_64


How reproducible: 
always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. install fedora on FSC Celsius V830
2.
3.
  
Actual results:
system hangs in first boot
after message 
Dec 30 02:51:15 localhost kernel: sd 1:0:3:0: [sdc] Write Protect is off
Dec 30 02:51:15 localhost kernel: sd 1:0:3:0: [sdc] Write cache: enabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA
Dec 30 02:51:15 localhost kernel: sdc: sdc1
Dec 30 02:51:15 localhost kernel: sd 1:0:3:0: [sdc] Attached SCSI disk


Expected results:
system should work as it did on fedora 9 or rhel 5.3


Additional info:
after bringing the actual f9 kernel (2.6.27.9-73.fc9.x86_64) into the installation of f10, the system came up.

The system works with the actual installation of rhel4.7, rhel5.3,
openSUSE 11.1, SLED 11, Sabayonlinux 4
and it looks like that for the same reason ubuntu 8.10 does not work
( live installation of ubuntu 8.10 is okay )

There is also no problem with the LIVE KDE CD.

Comment 3 Winfrid Tschiedel 2009-01-28 19:19:03 UTC
Problem is solved with new kernel -

[root@V830-2 ~]# uname -a
Linux V830-2 2.6.27.12-170.2.5.fc10.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Jan 21 01:33:24 EST 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
