[opensuse-kernel] 11.2 kernel-rt-2.6.31-3.4 won't boot

Hi, I decided to try out the rt kernel as the description says optimized for desktop and I maintain rosegarden4 which I thought would benefit from it but it won't boot due to not being able to see my disk. It gets past grub and loads but cannot see any disks, even the ext2 boot partition that it was loaded from. I searched bugzilla and the only bug against was the lack of source and that was for 11.0. Does nobody use this kernel or am I missing something?

Last time I talked to Novell guys in person they mentioned their target is rather servers than desktops.

Yeah, I think this is just the RT guys not changing the description. It is _not_ optimized for the desktop. It's optimized for very low latency server loads, which comes with some trade-offs, most notably that throughput drops. - -Jeff - -- Jeff Mahoney SUSE Labs -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.12 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with SUSE - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iEYEARECAAYFAktXIV8ACgkQLPWxlyuTD7IFDgCfefARq3Lhp/r3EQT1hlRFDPmq 20AAnApRzQ1Bh1crTpyrgAIrU/SZNKD9 =/TUn -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help@opensuse.org

Will somebody change the description? It's not what I was looking for anyway but any idea why it doesn't boot? Regards Dave P -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help@opensuse.org
