Hi Folks. When I booted 2.6.19 on an IA Superdome (Orca), the kernel caused an MCA around the "dmi_scan" function. When I set "CONFIG_DMI = n", it was automatically set back to "y" during the build. I had to workaround the problem by commenting out "core_initcall(run_dmi_scan)". On doing so, the MCA went away. So, my questions are: 1. Does the Orca actually have a DMI Interconnect, or is the Kernel detecting it wrongly? 2. Is there a cleaner way to disable DMI in such situations? I am sorry if these questions were answered on another list. I will be grateful if someone can point me to those posts.
