[Bug 221600] New: installer kernel hangs when loading sata_promise
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=221600 Summary: installer kernel hangs when loading sata_promise Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Beta 2 plus Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: kernel-maintainers@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: wstephenson@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de For "Promise PDC20579 SATAII 150 IDE Controller" which is on a "Micro-Star International K8T Neo 2 Motherboard". It works with brokenmodules=sata_promise. And 10.1 works fine with this hardware, although I don't have any disks attached to it. Google sees many other reports of trouble with this combination for other recent distros, and the kubuntu edgy and FC6 installers both barf on this hardware. -- 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.

Although the installer starts with brokenmodules=sata_promise, after first reboot the module is loaded again, and when other modules are modprobe'd, modprobe hangs. The workaround is to blacklist sata_promise in /etc/modprobe.conf.local. Increasing severity because this breaks installation. -- 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.

According to someone on the opensuse list (13/12 "openSUSE 10.2 Installation hangs" it even worked in beta1. I can only work around it using brokenmodules; fortunately I never used the promise controller on my home box, but others may depend on it. Is it a WONTFIX or a job for 10.3? -- 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.
