https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=890702 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=890702#c6 --- Comment #6 from Michal Hocko <mhocko@suse.com> 2014-08-07 12:04:10 CEST --- Ohh, wait a second. I have completely overlooked this: [ 0.952231] Unpacking initramfs... [ 0.958647] NMI: PCI system error (SERR) for reason b1 on CPU 0. [ 0.960017] Dazed and confused, but trying to continue Which means that there was a critical error reported by a PCI device. It seems that the error was fatal because recoverable errors are usually reported by MCE. I am not familiar with PCI internals enough to tell you details though. I have no idea what b1 as a reason means. I have also no idea why the issue is seen only with pae kernel (maybe the memory layout is slightly different) or maybe there is a BIOS bug which results in an overlapping areas or a weird PCI setup when PAE is enabled. Will try to look deeper into it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
