(In reply to comment #0) Additional notes. The cpu is a dual core AMD X2 3800+. I discovered that a i386 installation DVD does not have any of the problems mentioned here (or in bug 231059). The kernel messages do not show anything, to me, that seems unusual or troublesome. (A thumb usb drive can be seen. If someone can tell me how to get the messages copied to the drive, I'll forward them.) All devices are detected and both cpu processors are recognized. But I want to install 64-bit rpms and applications. The problems did not occur with SuSE 10.1. They are new to 10.2. Likely the loading of a kernel-module crashes the box. Steffen, any idea how to debug this? My bug 231059 was marked as a duplicate of a more recent bug 232013. I have attached some files there that might be useful. They include the output of a semi-successful install (with 1 cpu processor lost), a recent boot.msg file, a hwinfo log file, and the output of the firmware check program (latest version). I hope that, with more people looking at it, the problems I (and others) are having will be rectified. Thank you. (In reply to comment #2) All of my problems are resolved by installing the latest kotd. See bug 232013 for 2 successful reports, and also lots of information. In bug 231205, it was found that the bug apparently originates in a SuSE kernel patch, not known which one. The people who are working on these bugs all need to coordinate. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 231205 *** |
Computer: HP Pavilion a1520n. Motherboard: Asus A8N-LA (Nagami2-GL8E). 1 GB memory. 2 SATA disks (one added for Linux). SuSE 10.2 x86_64 DVD iso (and CD1 also) downloaded and burned. All mdsums OK. When "Installation" starts, computer freezes with ~22 lines of text on the console. No log files can be obtained. A (hand) copy of the screen display is attached. A workaround is to use ACPI disabled. However, no hard disks are found in probing the system (a separate bugzilla report). This bug is similar to #229217, which is waiting for information. The only information available is attached here. Sorry, I can't see how to make an attacment, or to get it to work.
