Hi,
I just received a Supermicro server back from factory repair.
Installed CentOS 6.3 x86_64 fresh from DVD (tried with 6.4, same
result). Everything goes fine until i install Virtualization* yum
groups. Virtualization is enabled in BIOS. Server boots, CentOS loads
and i have even a login prompt. If i'm fast enough to enter login name
and password, shell works for about 10 sec. Then, it seems to hang.
Pressing CTRL-C seems to work as i see it on screen (CTRL-C text).
I'm used to Xen in CentOS 5 where we can choose a non-Xen kernel at
boot time. With CentOS 6 and KVM, i'm kinda lost! I Googled a lot and
didn't find anything to disable KVM / select a a non-KVM kernel a boot
up time. The server has been repaired but i'm not sure if there is
still other problems that prevent KVM to work. I know that they
installed the last BIOS version. I have other identical servers that
works well with KVM. I tried to disable all i saw for virtualization
support in BIOS, result is the same. I did memtest86 tests without problem.
Here are the specs:
Supermicro 6026T-3RF (mainboard X8DT3-S)
BIOS 03/17/12 15:50:21 Ver 2.1
Xeon E5520
Kingston 12 Gig RAM (Triple Channel)
LSI 9240-8i
What should i do to debug this? Any pointers, URL, etc would be
greatly appreciated!
Thanks all.
