When booting 2.6.27.12-HEAD_20090122183653_0d7eb945-default x86_64 on
my system the system freezes immediately with black screen. With both
normal and safe settings. Nothing on the screen, nothing in the logs.
2.6.27.12- HEAD_20090120200141_5646759d works fine on that system.
How to get useful information for a bug report in that case ?
Do you know if any earlier version of the available KOTD rpms is
working for you? This would be helpful information .. since this would
bring it down to hopefully only few changes which potential caused the
regression.
As I said : the previous version 2.6.27.12- HEAD_20090120200141_5646759d
works fine
Wild guess - add to the kernel command-line "nohpet".
Not quite sure if the highres=off in the failsafe already disables hpet.
But there is also some hpet related patch between the two version - maybe
worth a try.
I think you are right, the hpet change causes the trouble. With disabled
splash screen I see now messages from hpet:
hpet: increasing min_delta_ns to nsec
The message is repeated after some other messages and the number becomes
higher and higher with every repetition.
Jeff, instead of bisecting, could you provide a kernel with hpet change backed
out ? Or do the hpet messages allready prove that the hpet change is the
cuplrit ?
