I've just done a new pure64 installation on my dual Opteron using 19-02-2005 netinst. This went smoothly until I tried to upgrade to the current 2.6.10 smp kernel (kernel-image-2.6.10-9-amd64-k8-smp_2.6.10-4_amd64.deb). It caused a lockup on first reboot with the following message:
modprobe [909] trap invalid operand rip: 2a956ea248 rsp: 7fbffff818 error: 0 NMI Watchdog detected LOCKUP on CPU0CPU 0 Modules linked in: ext3 jbd mbcache Subsequent hard reboot caused a lockup without the first line of the above message. In both cases the lockup followed a long list of error messages regarding various modules, eg. ERROR: Removing 'trm290': Device or resource busy There were so many of these they scrolled off the screen. I then tried an earlier version of this kernel which I had saved on a CD (kernel-image-2.6.10-9-amd64-k8-smp_2.6.10-2_amd64.deb) and it works fine. A diff shows no difference between the kernel configs except the earlier one has CONFIG_INPUT_MOUSEDEV_PSAUX_ENABLE=y and the new one doesn't contain this line. The motherboard is MSI K8T Master2 FAR (VIA K8T800/VT8237) with 2 x Opteron 240, 2 x 512MB RAM with chip-kill ECC enabled. Anyone got any ideas why this is happening?
