Folks,
While attempting to get xorg working[1] in vesa and fbdev mode with the CF52 I
have, I tried using the nosmp boot option and received an unexpected result on
boot. Fortunately I don't require nosmp to get the system working, but I
definitely was not expecting the nosmp option to cause a failure of the ata
subsystem.
The system:
a Panasonic CF-52, see attached lspci for some details
reformatted to clean, then installed from F8T3 [2],
immediately following install it was fully yum updated to the
fedora/linux/development/i386/os/ as of "Nov 6 08:15" [3].
nothing from any non fedora/linux/development/i386/os/ has been installed.
I also tried the system after modifying the bios setting which
enables|disables both cores in smp.
grub outputs:
kernel /vmlinuz-2.6.23.1-42.fc8 ro root=LABEL=/ nosmp rhgb quiet
---- Console output -----
Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel.
Red Hat nash version 6.0.19 starting
ata1: COMRESET failed (errno=-16)
ata1: COMRESET failed (errno=-16)
ata1: COMRESET failed (errno=-16)
---- end Console output -----
followed by the nash script output about swap and mounts not working because
the disk is not available.
nosmp bios result
----- ---- ------
!use smp Boots and works normally, modulo X problems.
!use !smp Boots and works normally, modulo X problems.
use smp Fails with ata1: COMRESET failed
use !smp Fails with ata1: COMRESET failed
Is the above and attached enough information?
[1] or at least track down why it is not, which is a subject for a different
thread.
[2] No torrent allowed at my location, so I am using what I have.
[3] TZ=EST I think, based on when repodata/comps.xml was set at the mirror
also the last updated file in development/i386/os/Package was
Nov 2 14:01 selinux-policy-3.0.8-44.fc8.noarch.rpm
