I fixed a similar problem, but I cannot tell if it is the same before I see a decoded oops. A number of fixes is required to use 128 SCSI disks, and their introduction was staggered both in Red Hat and Linus kernel. Please do not say "the vanilla kernel from kernel.org", it is not informative. Please say "2.4.16" or other particular version. I fixed this problem in Marcelo tree starting with 2.4.18-pre3. The rawhide after 2.4.16-0.13 is fixed, and can be used for testing. The same fix in 2.4.9-XX is done, but not in the field yet. Please refer for Bug #55420, RFE #58442. DO NOT DUP PREMATURELY. I must see an oops from this bug before I can dup. Requestor(s), please test the 2.4.9-21 RPM, which came out today. The ia64 version is available. If 2.4.9-21 fixes the symptom, I'll dup it with 55420. Be ready that sd_mod may refuse to load on some configurations (it does this now instead of simply oopsing :). The RFE addresses that.

What about binary RPMS, do they work? Please do not drop such huge logs into comment box, but attach them instead. Bill tried this and got.... -----Original Message----- From: peck, william Sent: Friday, January 25, 2002 3:00 PM To: 'Lucio DiGiovanni' Subject: RE: Re-compile with default Config... I tried to install the binary kernel image for you.. It complained that it needed newer versions of mkinitrd e2fsprogs and modutils. I went back to the ftp site and grabbed those for you too. When I tried to upgrade mkinitrd it wanted a newer version of filesystem. I gave up here becuase the ftp site didn't have a new version of filesystem. :-( [root@l82bi050 /root]# rpm -ivh kernel-smp-2.4.9-21.ia64.rpm error: failed dependencies: mkinitrd >= 3.2.2 is needed by kernel-smp-2.4.9-21 [root@l82bi050 /root]# rpm -Uvh mkinitrd-3.2.6-1.ia64.rpm error: failed dependencies: filesystem >= 2.1.0 is needed by mkinitrd-3.2.6-1 [root@l82bi050 /root]# rpm -qa | grep filesystem filesystem-2.0.7-1 Sorry... I forgot to mention that the version of filesystem that mkinitrd requires is not in the 7.1 updates section I thought you'd just run up2date and voila - it's there. Consulting with our ia64 wizard now... filesystem is in the noarch directory. As to the compiler error, use the 7.2 gcc and it should work fine. |
