RE: 2.4.[35] + Dell Poweredge 8450 + Oops on boot

2001-06-01 Thread Terry Katz

Just before I got your suggestion, I tried just that (disabling the PNP
Bios) .. I looked up the trace addresses in the system.map (which I
forgot to include) and saw that it was from the pnp bios) .. It did the
trick :)  I will also see if there's an updated bios available .. 

Thanks!

Can you check the firmware on the PERC 2/SC?  (You claim you tried a
different system with a dual-channel, but that would be the PERC 2/DC).
There's a bug in the megaraid driver for some versions of the PERC 2/SC
firmware which can cause an oops when the megaraid driver loads.  It's fixed
by upgrading to v3.13 firmware, available by link on
http://domsch.com/linux.  That *shouldn't* be the problem, as I don't see
the megaraid sign-on message, but it could be.

Also, the onboard SCSI adapter isn't an Adaptec, it's a Symbios 810.

Thanks,
Matt

2.4.[35] + Dell Poweredge 8450 + Oops on boot

2001-06-01 Thread Terry Katz

Hello,
  I'm trying to get 2.4 to run on a Dell Poweredge 8450, with no luck so
far .. 
  Below is what I get when I boot a 2.4 kernel (happens in 2.4.3(-ac9)
and 2.4.5(-ac5), 2.2.19 works fine).. I've attached a full boot log and
my config settings .. The settings, and kernels I'm trying (at least
2.4.3-ac9) work on other Dell boxes here, such as the 2450, and 6350
(with same internals, ie the raid (dual channel) + nic)...

  Quick spec of the box is:
Dell PowerEdge 8450
4x550 Xeon / 2gig
Onboard Adaptec SCSI
AMI MegaRaid Single Channel 16mb
  Dual Port Intel EtherExpress Pro/100+

  Any ideas as to why this is happening, are welcome :)

  If any more information is needed, it can be provided ...
