Subject: question on a kernal "uhhuh" message To: fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx Message-ID: <48B31A7A.6040309@xxxxxxxxxx> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed While running a long "yum update", I got the following message in the middle: (367/406): cscope-15.6-2.fc9.i386.rpm | 141 kB 00:01 (368/406): gstreamer-p 86% | 20% |== | 57 kB/s | 192 kB 00:12 ETA Message from syslogd@chowder at Aug 25 11:55:03 ... kernel: Uhhuh. NMI received for unknown reason a1 on CPU 0. Message from syslogd@chowder at Aug 25 11:55:03 ... kernel: You have some hardware problem, likely on the PCI bus. Message from syslogd@chowder at Aug 25 11:55:03 ... kernel: Dazed and confused, but trying to continue (368/406): gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.19-2.fc9.i386.rpm | 929 kB 00:12 (369/406): exempi-2.0.1-1.fc9.i386.rpm | 297 kB 00:03 I am assuming that the second occurrence of "(368/406): gstreamer-plugins-base-0.10.19.2.fc9.i386.rpm" indicates that it did finish that rpm given that the rpm_debug_check and Transaction Test seemed to have passed. So, I am figuring this is my computer burping somewhere. Even though it is trying to point me at my PCI bus, I do not know what test / diags I should be running to find out if there really is a hardware problem and, if so, where and then how to deal with it. Any suggestions appreciated ... if I can provide any more info, please let me know what would be helpful. This is related to my prior email "update error on F9 -- round two" if more context is needed. Thanks, Paul
The last time I got one of these "dazed and confused" messages was when I was running a Fedora distribution on a motherboard with multiple PCI domains. Do you get a "dazed and confused" message during your boot process, or did it only show up during the yum update?
