https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=291038#c1 Summary: grub 0.97-66 makes a Mobile-AMD(Athlon) based machine unbootable (reset) Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Alpha 5 Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: belphegor@belbel.or.jp QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: Beta-Customer After upgrading grub package 0.97-62 to 0.97-66 from openSUSE factory, a Mobile-AMD(Athlon) based computer became to be unable to boot. It seems to reboot while grub stage loading. None of grub messages (ex. "GRUB loading stage 2" etc.) appered. Downgrading grub package to 0.97-62 can avoid this problem. This is a workaround. This is the cpuinfo on that machine. user@machine:~> cat /proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 6 model : 8 model name : Mobile AMD Athl stepping : 1 cpu MHz : 599.993 cache size : 256 KB fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no f00f_bug : no coma_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid level : 1 wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat pse36 mmx fxsr sse syscall mp mmxext 3dnowext 3dnow up ts fid vid bogomips : 1201.48 clflush size : 32 user@machine:~> uname -a Linux topo 2.6.22-rc7-3-default #1 SMP 2007/07/05 15:54:09 UTC i686 athlon i386 GNU/Linux -- 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.
