What problems are you having with the machine?
You're right, this is an upstream kernel problem, not a Fedora kernel problem. I can install and boot Fedora with an Emulex be3 network device, and the device will come up working and connected. However, when I use the latest "stable" upstream kernel 2.6.39.1, the system will boot, but the be3 network devices cannot initialize.
Sorry, wrong bugzilla. Please ignore comment #8
I see no apparent defect, but there must be a reason, why this error message appears ? Error: [RAMB] Namespace lookup failure, AE_NOT_FOUND (20110112/psargs-359)
Is this an HP ProLiant platform? If not, is it a desktop or workstation system?
It's a desktop system
We see this with an Asus P8H67-I Deluxe Rev 3.0 mother board, also a desktop mini ATX board. CPU Core i7 2600K Kingston DDR3-1333 Kernel 3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.3.fc16.x86_64
Please update the system BIOS and try again.
Still researching, in looking at the ASUS site the board has a newer version than what is available for support down load. Board has version 6.02 and support site has 5.02. So we will need to look at the forums to see if we can find out if ASUS pulled back the 6.02 version due to problems.

I see the same error (with no actual system problems that I've noticed other than this message) on my newly built system with an ASUS P8H67-V (REV 3.0) motherboard (which came with the latest rev bios according to the asus web site). I'd imagine the P67 and H67 are near identical other than the onboard video with the h67. from dmidecode: BIOS Information Vendor: American Megatrends Inc.

Unless this actually causes any problems, it's not an issue.
