[Bug 592989] New: installed 11.3 M4 kernel crashes at random places at boot (installation kernel works flawlessly)
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=592989 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=592989#c0 Summary: installed 11.3 M4 kernel crashes at random places at boot (installation kernel works flawlessly) Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Milestone 4 Platform: PC OS/Version: openSUSE 11.3 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: phdm@macqel.be QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.2) Gecko/20090730 SUSE/3.5.2-2.1 Firefox/3.5.2 hardware : laptop hp pavilion dv6-1300sb (Intel Pentium Dual-Core T4300 2.1 GHz 4Gb ram) I have installed, using the opensuse 11.3 milestone 4 DVD, opensuse 11.3 milestone 4 on my hp pavilion dv6-1300sb laptop. The installation kernel boots and works flawlessly, but the installed kernel always crashes (but at random points) without acpi=off, and often (but not always) also randomly crashes at boot with acpi=off.

I'm glad you filed the report upstream as well, but they're going to need to see it reproduced without our patchset. That's good info for us as well since it tells us whether it's a problem in our patches or the mainline kernel we base them on. -- 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.

When the installer tries to reboot with the installed kernel, the boot attempt fails. The only way to make it sometimes succeed is with acpi=off, acpi=ht or pci=noacpi, but that does not garantee succesfull boot, and the rest of the installation than fails midway. The only reliable kernel I have is the one of the installation disk. Because of that, I can currently not reliably boot into a linux environment enabling me to recompile a kernel. Can you look at https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=593325 so that I at least can compare dmesg's output between failed and successfull boot attempts. I'll try to work with the installation kernel either in rescue mode or installed on the hard disk and see what I can do. I am adding some other logs of boot attempts with various acpi-related parameters to https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15665 -- 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.

During the installation I added also the kernel-default package (automatically selected is the kernel-desktop one). For the automatic reboot during the installation, installer tried to restart with kernel-desktop. That kernel boot failed. I then rebooted using the kernel-default (an entry had automatically been created in grub, and is even the default one, thanks) and that kernel boot succeeded. There were some problems in the next phase of the installation, but that's another story. I more or less solved those and now have an installed 11.3 milestone 4 running with kernel-default, not with kernel-desktop. What do I miss ? How can I tell the differences between kernel-default and kernel-desktop ? -- 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.

Sorry, wrong information : I have 11.3-rc2 installed, but run with vanilla kernel v2.6.35-rc3. If I try to use the 11.3-rc2 kernel (2.6.34-12-desktop), my laptop does not boot; it blocks after the ssb messages :( -- 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.
