Sky2 NIC Problem? - Was F12 NFS Failures

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi

I have been fighting my problem with system freezes
described in the previous thread
I have added a 2nd NIC to the machine
and tested across an NFS mount using md2sum as before

The machine now has

An on board Marvell 8380 GB/s nic that uses the sky2 driver
A D-Link 530T GB/s nic that uses the skge driver

I am using a Netgear GS108T GB/s switch to a Centos 5.4
nfs4 server.

The machine is booted with only one NIC connected at a time

	D-link		Marvell
F11	OK		OK
F12	OK		Fails

Fails = Hardware button press required after "random" time during
read/checksum calc of 8GB file set

My conclusion was that it must be the F12 sky2 driver not NFS

I then down loaded the latest "Working" F11 kernel source rpm and
extracted sky2.c and sky2.h
and compiled these against the F12 kernel

I thought this must fix the problem - but no!
The machine still freezes during the md5sum test

I am rapidly running out of ideas !!

Any help appreciated

John
