From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3.0.0-10; Linux) Description of problem: Kudzu detects that hardware has been removed when it has not been removed. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install redhat with text pci=bios 2.install as normal 3.after reboot errors occur. Actual Results: On the first boot up after installation. Kudzu detects the following has hardware has been removed: Realtek|RTL-8139/8139C CMedia Electronics Inc| CM8738 SIS|7001 Silicon Integrated Systems USB VIA Technologies|USB VIA Technologies|USB 2 I atleast wanted to get the ethernet working and I didn't remove any hardware. I also tried to use insmod to load the ethernet driver and it failed saying "errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters". So I installed a ethernet pro 10/100 card and completely reinstalled the machine and still in kudzu it said that I removed it. Expected Results: Installation normal and beable to work on the net. Additional info: For sanity's sake I installed windows 2000 and both ethernet cards appeared and I was able to use them.Therefore the devices must be working properly in order to work on windows. Originally I installed 7.3 and got it up and running but I started seeing some problems with afs. So I decided to reinstall it and this is when the problems occured as described above. What type of information besides what is provided currently? Any /var/log/messages? Configuration is: Memory 2 x 184pin DDR DIMMs 200/266 SDRAM crucial Mushkin OCZ Corsair Geil Chipset SiS740 North Bridge SiS961 South Bridge Onboard Graphic Integrated SiS315 VGA TV-Out S-Video Out VGA driver Audio CMI 8738 5.1 Channel Hardware Audio Audio Driver Onboard Realtek 8100B
I think you'd need to continue to boot with pci=bios; this is a kernel issue with the PCI bus not being read correctly, it seems.
