Please provide the debug output, when it fails. Doesn't fix the problem, and here is the debug: TSC calibrated against pm_timer 8927439 9106459 179020 640810145 tsckhz: 135069550000000000 640810145 210779356 Marking TSC unstable due to TSCs unsynchronized time.c: Detected 210779.356 MHz processor. (Perhaps if this debug effort has to continue, we could remove some of these gentlemen from CC?) -- Cheers, Alistair.
