[1.] One line summary of the problem:
Kernel Panic every 24-48 hours after upgrade from 2.6.15.4 -> 2.6.16.15
[2.] Full description of the problem/report:
After the upgrade the screen freezes, usually in the night with a kernel
panic,
but when I get there the screen is black so I never get to see the panic
itself. Anyways I
looked in the syslog and the last entry was:
May 16 04:22:39 [kernel] [234964.520730] hdi: dma_timer_expiry: dma status ==
0x61
When I downgrade to 2.6.16.4 the problems goes away. Have tried to read the
changelogs but
I am stumped as to what the problem is.
Hardware IDE wise is alot of disks, 9 IDE disks on 3 controllers, and the hdi
disk is on a Primise Tech 20269 controller. Smartctl does not report any
problems.
[3.] Keywords (i.e., modules, networking, kernel):
Kernel panic, dma_timer_expiry ide
