When booting in secure mode or acpi switched off, I get messages as in bug 548165: [ 6.169153] ata3.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x4) [ 6.506022] ata1.00: qc timeout (cmd 0xec) [ 6.506032] ata1.00: failed to IDENTIFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x4) [ 6.626035] ata4: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300) [ 6.627152] ata3: SATA link up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 300) (I do have pictures from the screen available, for the case they are of interest I can post them too) When I switch the SATA controler off (boot from ide cdrom or usb), booting succeeds (Net install, check installation media as well as gnome live system) Anyway, this occurs only with os 11.2 64 bit system, 32 bit system installs fine. Also 11.1 64 system runs fine. Then I tried another distro (sabayon), with the same kernel (2.6.31): same results, can boot only if sata controler is switched off. Searching the web shows up issues with this kernel and serial ata. Can this be a kerne issue? What is the difference between 32 and 64 bit kernel? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
