[Bug 209209] New: Suse Linux 10.1 LIVE DVD kernel panics on Intel 64bit systems during bootup
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=209209 Summary: Suse Linux 10.1 LIVE DVD kernel panics on Intel 64bit systems during bootup Product: SUSE Linux 10.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SuSE Linux 10.1 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: cerebus_8@yahoo.com QAContact: qa@suse.de I have this issue on every x86-64 and intel 64bit system I've tested. using the downloaded Suse Linux 10.1 LIVE DVD from novell. The disk will boot, and comes up with the Gnome/KDE selection screen. As soon as I select either one (Doesn't matter which, the problem happens), the system shows a kernel panic. I've tested this several times on many systems and it's always the same. The opensuse 10.1 GM DVD works ok, as well the Suse Linux ("Pro") 10.1 dual layer DVD boot also works ok too. Just limited to "live" version. Here's some info on the box (currently running suse 10.1) - Linux TEST-XXX 2.6.16.13-4-smp #1 SMP Wed May 3 04:53:23 UTC 2006 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 3.00GHz stepping 02 Brought up 2 CPUs Don't know what else you might need. It has a gig of ram, and uses a 160gig SATA drive. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

I could take some time and try and write down the actual text, but that could take a while. is there anything else you could use in the mean-time? -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=209209 ------- Comment #5 from cerebus_8@yahoo.com 2006-09-30 08:10 MST ------- There isn't any other information shown on the screen before the first modprobe listed above. and I didn't think the few lines after the init error would help much either. but if you really think you need them, I can post them - they are rather typical. also, to clarify a bit perhaps help you narrow it down - after the Gnome/KDE is selected it comes up with the typical Blue screen with the Novell logo - I call this the "loading" screen it sits there for probably a few seconds (can't really tell what it's doing) then the errors come up. I'll run through it again and see if I can press ESC at the first sign of the "loading screen" - on the other versions this switches to the ascii screen and may show me more information about what it's doing so we can see where it is. This isn't available in all places though. Is there an alternate screen I can look at - I can try alt-f2 or something, or does LIVE just lock you out completely? Keep in mind this is a system with a SATA hard drive, and I believe the DVD rom drive it has is SCSI, but I'll have to double check that. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.

Do you have any Linux running on that box and can you find out how the DVD drive is connected? Including that unknown driver, if it exists, would be the solution for future Live media. -- 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, or are watching someone who is.
