The machine is running an athlon64 processor and the motherboard is a MSI K8N Neo V2.0 H nForce3 250. Machine works great other than hanging on shutdown. Looks like the hang is in umounting the filesystems in preparation for powering off. Almost looks like the hard drives are powered down too soon. This happens only after a long time running. Earlier kernels ( 2.6.25 ) don't do this. System has 2 pata drives on the on board nvidia IDE ports and one on a silicon image ATA controller. Reason for my confusion is that this in new behavior after going to the 2.6.3[0-1] kernel's . any help GREATLY appreciated.

Another thing is that this does not always happen. Only after the system has been running for a few hours and shutdown (10 or so) . I expect this will be a pain to diagnose due to the intermittent nature. I have done memory and disk testing with no errors found. Luckily the ext3 filesystem has suffered no damage so far but luck is not something I like to depend on. Also power off shutdown does not finish when this happens but again it's intermittent. |
