Re: F12 crash

Nermin,
2 Z800 HP server, 6 GBytes of ram with 1 80 GB sata for the os and 2 sata 1TB in software raid1.
The graphic board is an Nvidia Quadro FX380
I have other servers ( FC10 ) that mirrors locally the update and everything publicly available repositories.
As suggested by Brian Millet , I had to add the following to the boot kernel line in grubf .conf :
iommu=soft
and everything runs fine.
As I suspected, the problem is the video driver, and I've found some notes in the nvidia web site about that, but with the line above appended at the end of the line in grub.conf, just after the "quiet", all runs fine.
I've found some troubles using the LSI raid chips, and I've switched to the software solution and the Intel SAS, with a small modification in the rc.sysinit due to the time the raid need to become ready.
Anyway the Z800s are on and ok.
 
Cheers
Filippo

Filippo, If you don't mind can you please send the configuration files.
In the meantime, I passed my Z800 to the IT technicians, they diagnosed a hardware problem and changed the system board. Not sure if I want to install fedora; thinking of changing to red hat as it seems more stable.

Nermin,
After the very first update of my FC12_64 I've got the same problem on a couple of Z800, and seems related to the video hardware.
My Z800s has 3 disks, 1 for the boot and 2  1 TB in software raid1 and a runnlevel 3, so I can log in normally.
A startx does a 2 seconds of heavy work on the disks then reboots and no more disks  are visible, so a poweroff is the only thing I can do.
However, using the kernel found in the installation dvd my Z800s runs fine.
The nomodeset solution proposed in the fedora12 bug lists and the bios update from HP doesn't solved the problem for me.
I'm still looking for a solution, even if the systems are running fine.
If you are still interested, I will file you the detailed description of my Z800s configuration  ( tomorrow I will be in office )
