Fedora 10 dmesg for Asus K50IN laptop

Description of problem:

I've tried to upgrade my Fedora 10 using preupgrade package. It prepared the system for upgrade to Fedora 11, downloaded and installed the kernel (I believe it is 2.6.29.4-167.fc11). And now I have the grub menu item "Upgrade to Fedora 11 (Leonidas)". If I'm trying to use this menu I get the same bug.
So I have to use my old Fedora 10 grub menu item with kernel 2.6.27.25-170.2.72.fc10.i386. Fedora 10 works correctly. 

I've tried to upgrade using Fedora Live DVD (http://mirror.yandex.ru/fedora/linux/releases/11/Fedora/i386/iso/Fedora-11-i386-DVD.iso) and got the same bug.
When I've tried to use the rescue mode it wrote: Loding vmlinuz... Loading initrd.img... blinked about EDD check... and bug message.
I've tried to use edd=off kernel option, result is the same.

The same bug with Fedora Live CD.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kernel-2.6.29.4-167.fc11.i586

How reproducible:


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Download the Fedora 11 DVD (http://mirror.yandex.ru/fedora/linux/releases/11/Fedora/i386/iso/Fedora-11-i386-DVD.iso)
2. Prepare the Fedora 11 DVD disk.
3. Get the Asus K50IN laptop.
4. Try to boot the laptop in rescue mode from Fedora 11 DVD.
  
Actual results:

While kernel booting up the system halt with following message:
---

I not the steady user of Fedora, but the same bug occured on my notebook ASUS K40IN (K40IN-T420SCELWW).

When i'm trying to boot from Fedora-11-i686-Live, i'm getting exactly the same error.

But OpenSUSE 11.1 works fine:
alex@linux-b6dc:~> uname -a

Linux linux-b6dc 2.6.27.23-0.1-pae #1 SMP 2009-05-26 17:02:05 -0400 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

Comment 3 Kuznetsov Vyacheslav 2010-03-19 12:31:05 UTC
There is no such the bug anymore with current kernel versions (2.6.29 and up). So I'm closing the ticket.

Cheers.
