I have resumed a Tyan S2895 with two dual-opteron, placed in 2 slots of 400MHz Kingston DDR1 ECC, two sata 250GB Maxtor, new CD-ROM and floppy, PS2 mouse and US keyboard (it was previously running fine with 16GB RAM, two WD 150GB Raptor, and different CD-ROM and floppy; then the machine remained unused for one year)
I have yesterday installed on this machine Debian amd64 lenny 5.0.0 (netinstall from CD-ROM) creating 3 partitions 1 2 3 on sda and sdb of 0.2G, 1.0G, and nearly the rest of the drive. Selected all the partitions to be a raid device configure raid md0 = sda1 sdb1 md1 = sda2 sdb2 md2 = sda3 sdb3 selected md0 as type ext2 mount /boot selected md1 as type ext3 mount / selected md2 as type lvm device configured lvm for /home /usr /var /tmp /swap /opt. Installed grub on master boot record. Reboot: OK. Next day, on booting: Phoenix Trusted Server 1.03.2895 CPU0 MemClk 200MHz Tcl=3.0 Trc=3 Tras=8 Trp=3 CPU1 MemClk 100MHz Tcl=??? Trc=0 Tras=Trp=0 LTD frequency=1000MHz LTD width=16 bit DOWN-16 bit UP 2048M System RAM passed 2048K Cache SRAM passed System BIOS shadowed Video BIOS shadowed ATAPI CD-ROM: HL-DT-STDVD-RAM GH22LP20 Mouse (PS2) initialized System configuration data updated ERROR Resource conflict - PCI Mass Storage Controller in slot 01 Bus:01, Device:04, Function:00 was unable to run due to memory constraints. ===== Well, I am no system maintainer (there is nobody here that qualifies for that) and I can imagine a lot of different possibilities, from faulty RAM (that suspicious reading 200MHz and 100MHz, while they are 400MHz) on...
