Not strictly a Debian question, more a general hardware issue, i know.. but i gotta start somewhere.
I have a BP6 with 2xCeleron 433. And it seems that justabout any heavy disk activity towards the disks on the HPT366 controller freezez the system up completely to the point of cold boot. Has anyone any thoughts on this? Below is some output leading up to the lockup. cookiemonster:~# dmesg Linux version 2.4.18-686-smp ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) (gcc version 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)) #1 SMP Sun Apr 14 12:07:19 EST 2002 BIOS-provided physical RAM map: BIOS-e820: 0000000000000000 - 00000000000a0000 (usable) BIOS-e820: 00000000000f0000 - 0000000000100000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 0000000000100000 - 0000000010000000 (usable) BIOS-e820: 00000000fec00000 - 00000000fec01000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 00000000fee00000 - 00000000fee01000 (reserved) BIOS-e820: 00000000ffff0000 - 0000000100000000 (reserved) found SMP MP-table at 000f5ae0 hm, page 000f5000 reserved twice. hm, page 000f6000 reserved twice. hm, page 000f1000 reserved twice. hm, page 000f2000 reserved twice.
