I recently installed FC5 on my AMD XP2400 system, without any issues,
until I updated the system to the latest available versions.
Unfortunately, with the 2.6.17-1.2174_FC5 kernel, my system no longer
boots. It gets to loading the dm-snapshot.ko, and stops. Even when
left alone for a couple hours.
It still works when I choose the 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5 kernel.
I have 3 hard drives installed, the boot drive on hda, a DVD RAM
drive on hdc, and 2 160GB drives on my motherboard promise controller:
PDC20276: IDE controller at PCI slot 0000:00:0f.0
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:0f.0[A] -> GSI 19 (level, low) -> IRQ 16
PDC20276: chipset revision 1
PDC20276: 100% native mode on irq 16
ide2: BM-DMA at 0xd000-0xd007, BIOS settings: hde:pio, hdf:pio
ide3: BM-DMA at 0xd008-0xd00f, BIOS settings: hdg:pio, hdh:pio
Probing IDE interface ide2...
hde: HDS722516VLAT80, ATA DISK drive
ide2 at 0xe000-0xe007,0xdc02 on irq 16
Probing IDE interface ide3...
hdg: WDC WD1600JB-00DUA1, ATA DISK drive
ide3 at 0xd800-0xd807,0xd402 on irq 16
setup in RAID (striping) mode in the BIOS.
If I disable the controller in the BIOS, the system boots up until it
stops and complains it cannot find the filesystem /home, and drops me
to a shell to fix.
Any ideas of where I can troubleshoot? What other information would
be helpful?
Thanks,
Kevin
