Thanks for the report, Bill.

Based on the CPUID [1] and core speed [2], I am guessing that this is
a Geode LX 800; can you confirm this?
  


Correct.  The board is an Advantech PCM3353:

http://www.advantech.com/applied/products/PCM-3353.pdf


Have you tried running the long NOP test app, posted at bug 464962?
  


Nope.  I'll try to get to that.

Bug#463606: Test results on Geode

2008-02-14 Thread Bill Gatliff

Guys:


Seeing similar problems here too, with 2.6.24-686.  2.6.23-686 worked 
fine.  My details:


# cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor   : 0
vendor_id   : AuthenticAMD
cpu family  : 5
model   : 10
model name  : Geode(TM) Integrated Processor by AMD PCS
stepping: 2

cache size  : 128 KB
fdiv_bug: no
hlt_bug : no
f00f_bug: no
coma_bug: no
fpu : yes
fpu_exception   : yes
cpuid level : 1
wp  : yes
flags   : fpu de pse tsc msr cx8 sep pge cmov clflush mmx mmxext 
3dnowext 3dnow up

bogomips: 1001.54
clflush size: 32

(Yes, I know this machine isn't _technically_ a 686!).

linux-image-2.6.24-1-486 seems to run fine.

No, this means someone provided a patch, which the grub maintainers could or
not use to fix the problem in an upload to unstable.

You could apply those patches to the grub package and rebuild it otoo.
 



Nothing makes my palms sweat faster than tinkering with grub...  :(

I patched up my /etc/lvm/lvm.config and now the kernel package installs 
clean.  It won't successfully boot, however.  It hangs with:


...
Waiting for /sys/block/sdb/dev
...
/sys/block/sdb/dev seems to be down
...


The /dev/sdb device is where my root filesystem is at.  Not quite sure 
why the kernel can't find it...


Any ideas?

One other thing.  When I try to --purge the package, I get this:

Bug#337974: linux-image-2.6.12-1-k7: i2o controller probe failed err -110

2005-11-07 Thread Bill Gatliff

Package: linux-image-2.6.12-1-k7
Version: 2.6.12-10
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system


Kernel hangs at boot after failing to init iop0:

...
iop0: get status timeout
iop0: reset rejected trying to clear
iop0: unable to clear (status=0xbe)
i2o controller probe failed err -110
[hang]

The very same system boots fine under 2.6.8, where it uses dpti instead
of iop.  The dpti driver on 2.6.12 looks like it issues the same messages
as it does under 2.6.8 (suggests that it is working properly), but
apparently iop steps in shortly thereafter and tries (unsuccessfully) to
take over.

My dmesg from 2.6.8:

...

Vendor: ADAPTEC   Model: RAID-5Rev: 370F
Type:   Direct-Access  ANSI SCSI revision: 02

A grep for iop0 in my 2.6.8 dmesg produces no results.

I don't have a dmesg for 2.6.12, since the system won't boot.   :)

lvdisplay belongs to lvm2 I believe. Why do you file this bugreport
against yaird? It seems to me that you have problems with your LVM
headers or something.
 



Alright.  I'll send a report to lvm2.
