From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0; Q312461) Description of problem: I have installed Red Hat AS 2.1 on a Fujitsu Siemens Computers Primergy T80 with 8 cpu's and 32 GB main memory. The Primergy T850 is the same hardware like the IBM x440. After installing RH AS2.1 out of the box I have installed the beta errata kernel 2.4.9-e.10.13: rpm -Uvh kernel-doc-2.4.9-e.10.13.i386.rpm rpm -Uvh kernel-headers-2.4.9-e.10.13.i386.rpm rpm -Uvh kernel-source-2.4.9-e.10.13.i386.rpm rpm -ivh kernel-summit-2.4.9-e.10.13.i686.rpm Additionally I use the boot option "notsc". The systems hangs approximate 30 minutes after starting our testsuite "Platform Load Test". I see a frozen graphic console, keyboard and mouse doesn't work and a ping doesn't work. I can not find any error messages. The same error happens with the kernel 2.4.9-e.10summit and 2.4.9-e.10.10summit. In the attachment you can find additional information about the system, a rpm with the testsuite and in the file start-plt.txt some information for starting the test. I think you can reproduce the error on a IBM x440 system because it is the same hardware. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.start the plt test like described in the file start-plt.txt 2. 3. Additional info:

I see the same error with the kernel 2.4.9-e.11summit.
I see the same error with the kernel 2.4.9-e.12summit.
Does capping memory (ie: booting w/ "mem=14G") help? Using 32Gigs of memory, you will quickly run out of lowmem, so you'll likely need to look into using the hugemem kernel.
Are there any updates on this bug from the fujitsu-siemens folks?
Is there any chance we could get an update on this bug from Fujitsu-Siemens? Otherwise I think it should be closed. Its close to being two years stale.
This bugzilla can be closed. There is no problem with the cuurent kernel.
