I have a number of machines (on 2 different motherboards) that if I run
2.4 on hang with an NMI error about 2/3's of the way though boot (about
were crond starts on redhat 6.2).
2 of the machines are based on Supermicro P6DBEs the other is based on a
Gigabyte GA-6BXD. I am using the onboard ide and also have tried a Promise
20262. There are RAID 0 and 1 arrays on the manchines.
The exact hardware specs are:
Supermicro P6DBE
2x P3 650
512Mb SDRAM
2x ST310212A (mirrored)
2x Maxtor 53073U6 (Striped) on a Promise 20262
Gigabyte GA-6BXD
2x P3 650
256Mb SDRAM
2x Westen Digitals (model unknown as the machine is at home and I'm not)
I have posted a decoded oops sometime ago, I can generate another one
agaist a current test kernel (the latest I have tried is test9)
I can test experimental / unstable / eat your fs patches on the gigabyte
machine, the Supermicro boxes are production machines.
