https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=299340#c2 Juan Erbes changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |jerbes@gmail.com --- Comment #2 from Juan Erbes 2007-08-12 06:53:44 MST --- I filed the Bug 299575 - (Opensuse 10.3 beta1 X86-64 will not install on ATI SB600 / RD580 based motherboard - ahci module will not load) System mainboard: MSI K9A PLATINUM (SB600 / RD580) chipset CPU: Athlon64 5200 dual core RAM: 2 GB HD: Western Digital SATA2 Other: pata DVD writer I have a Athlon64 dual core in a MSI K9A PLATINUM motherboard, and for instaling OSS 10.2, I must to install with "install pci=nomsi" in the command line. Later I upgrade it to OSS 10.3 alpha 6, and it works without important problems (32 bit version). But now I downloaded the kde x86-64 iso, verified the checksum, it was ok, and it will not install on my SB600 / RD580 based motherboard. I must boot with the parameter "pci=nomsi" in 10.3 alpha 6, and I tryed to remove it, and the system do'nt loads. I tryed with "safe settings", "acpi off", and with "install pci=nomsi", but the ahci module will not load. The bios is setted to "Native IDE", but it was the same in 10.2 and 10.3 alpha 6 if it was setted to "ahci". Other detail, after the upgrade to 10.3 alpha 6, I changed the dvd burner from a Asus ATAPI, to a LITE-ON DVDRW LH-20A1H (20x burning dvds), and I must to change the driver from the ide-generic to pata_atiixp, to lograte that it works with k3b. In the installation process the system stops for about 2 minutes trying to load de ahci driver module (in 10.2 32 bits I got the same problem without the "install pci=nomsi" in the command line), but this option will not work now in 10.3 beta1 X86-64. Now the loaded modules for the disk controllers with 10.3 alpha 6 32 bits are: pata_atiixp 11904 0 ahci 25348 4 libata 120396 2 pata_atiixp,ahci scsi_mod 140248 5 usb_storage,sr_mod,sg,sd_mod,libata I read in the kernel list that the ahci driver is'nt mature enough so as the msi management and the problem appear with many chipsets: http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/7/31/669 -- 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.

The problems are mostly with chipsets which claim to support features when they actually don't. Please post the result of 'lspci -nn' in bug 299010 and file a separate bug report for 'pci=nomsi'. Thanks. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 299010 *** https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=299010 -- 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.
