I'm glad to see that others have problems with the 2.6.10 too :) Seriously, the first 2.6.10 deb worked fine for me, but the latest deb reboots just after SATA detection. > 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? No. I've looked at the Changelog but could not find anything useful. I also tried to recompile the kernel using the .config from the latest 2.6.10 deb, but that kernel did not even boot at all... though I think that was caused by my imcompetence, and usage of the wrong kernel build command. Anyway, I've been too busy to explore this... what's the easiest way to get debug information on the kernel boot? Does the dmesg of failed boots get cached somewhere? Or do you have to retype is on another machine... which is impossible if the machine reboots during a failing boot ofcourse :( BTW, my MB is a Tyan K8W S2885 (yes, I've seen the thread earlier today...)
