Thanks. I was hoping that would be it.
Yesterday when I went through several installs, I noticed I had
problems across the board with 2.6 kernels (SuSE 9.2 and 9.3, and
Trustix 3). TSL 2.2 (and previously TSL 2.1) worked fine on the exact
hardware.
I suspect the problem is in the Linux 2.6 kernel itself. SuSE also
had problems around disk partitioning, and occasionally other areas
as well, all related to the disks. I do not think the problem is EVMS
itself, unless you are exercising a different bug. 2.4 kernels do not
seem to have problems. It would be interesting (purely from a
troubleshooting perspective, I'm not eager to create the environment
to test it) to see if using a 2.4 kernel with Trustix 3 would work,
where the 2.6 kernels are not.
Sorry it didn't work.

What did it do?
Nothing, just hangs at 20% for several minutes. No disk activity
(that I
notice). As far as I can see, the "ide=nodma" didn't make any
difference.
I've reported this on Bugzilla, see
https://bugs.trustix.org/show_bug.cgi?id=784
this on a P-II or P-III at 500 mhz right? So that would put
that system at about 5 years old?
266MHz P-II. 5 years old or something like that.
[It's possible I'm confusing you with someone else, if so, what kind
of hardware, and how old is it? And did it work reliably on TSL
2.2?]
See the bug report for details. Yes, TSL 2.2 works with no
problems, but
at that time there was no Viper nor EVMS.
