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.
