Please Help, I have had a boot lockup problem for some time now. I thought it was the "VFS lock" issue but it is not. Can someone look at the following excerp and see if they know what is happening?? System configuration is: Supermicro X5DP8 with Dual 2.8 GHz XEONs 2GB RAM (1024MB allocated to system) Running Redhat 9.0 Stock kernel 14 x 147Gigabyte Harddisks setup for RAID 0 with LVM. Symptoms: 1. This boot lockup only occurs once in a while. But when it does it requires someone to push the reset button on the front of the unit. This really hinders remote operation. 2. The "VFS: Disk quotas vdquot_6.5.1" lockup only occurs conincident with a "boot-pause" and the immediately after on of the "Booting processor 1/1 eip 2000" lines. I have tried turning off hyperthreading and it does not help. If you notice a pause after the "Booting processor 1/1 eip 2000" line then the system will difinitely lockup when the forllowing line appears.
