Hi, just a short question, is this mailing list also intended for discussion about the 10.0 Beta version or should anything with regard to this topic go to the relevant bug system? I just checked, that my problem with the 4GB BIOS memory remapping on my A8V is still there, even with Beta 2, and wanted to report this to the appropriate folks. Ciao Siegbert

There's an entire community devoted to 10.0 beta over at opensuse.org, separate mailing lists are there too (under communications). Scott -- POPFile, the OpenSource EMail Classifier http://popfile.sourceforge.net/ Linux 2.6.11.4-21.8-default x86_64 SuSE Linux 9.3 (x86-64)

Are you sure this is not a BIOS problem? Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126

O.k., so I will open a bug there.

No, I'm not, but I don't know how to find out. Could you tell me, what I should do to be sure whether to blame the BIOS or Linux? From Asus I got the answer some time ago, that memory remapping should work for RedHat Enterprise and Win 64bit edition, but they didn't test Suse. Frank Steiner wrote on this list in <42DB5EDB.1090007@bio.ifi.lmu.de> under the subject "Re: [suse-amd64] PCI memory hole and remapping (was -> Re: [suse-amd64] Memory Problem: 3Gb instead of 4Gb, TYAN K8WE s2895, 2x252 Opteron )" that memory remapping works for him with the same mobo. The apparent difference between our systems is that I use SCSI hard disks and the initialisation of them is exactly the point, where booting fails at least since Suse 9.1 upto 10.0 Beta 2. As the boot process up to this point is actually reading exactly from this SCSI hard disk, it should be possible to use this disk. I don't know what init is trying to do at this point. In message <4309DC41.9020705@gmx.de> on this list with the subject "Re: [suse-amd64] A8V, Suse 9.3 and BIOS memory remapping" I wrote the complete error messages passing on the console for Suse 9.3. With 10.0 Beta 2 the messages are worded quite different, but it is again during the SCSI part of init. Ciao Siegbert
