On my system, the bootup hangs completely after the kernel has detected my
CD/DVD ROM. Last working version was 2.5.9. When .9 it comes up, it displays
(dmesg dump, probably non-useful stuff stripped off):
Linux version 2.5.9 (root@maciej) (gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (SuSE)) #3 Tue
Apr 23 21:54:54 CEST 2002
[...]
Sony Vaio laptop detected.
Kernel command line: auto BOOT_IMAGE=linux-2.5.9 ro root=301
[...]
CPU: AMD Duron(tm) Processor stepping 01
[...]
Applying VIA southbridge workaround.
PCI: Disabling Via external APIC routing
[...]
VIA Technologies, Inc. Bus Master IDE: IDE controller on PCI slot 00:07.1
VIA Technologies, Inc. Bus Master IDE: chipset revision 6
VIA Technologies, Inc. Bus Master IDE: not 100% native mode: will probe irqs
later
VP_IDE: VIA vt82c686b (rev 40) IDE UDMA100 controller on pci00:07.1
ide0: BM-DMA at 0x1c40-0x1c47, BIOS settings: hda:DMA, hdb:pio
ide1: BM-DMA at 0x1c48-0x1c4f, BIOS settings: hdc:DMA, hdd:pio
hda: HITACHI_DK23CA-20, ATA DISK drive
hdc: QSI DVD-ROM SDR-081, ATAPI CD/DVD-ROM drive
That's the last line I see from a 2.5.10 kernel booting up. 2.5.9 does go
farther:
ide0 at 0x1f0-0x1f7,0x3f6 on irq 14
ide: unexpected interrupt 1 15
ide1 at 0x170-0x177,0x376 on irq 15
ide: unexpected interrupt 0 14
[... and so on...]
No OOPS, no BUG, even not a blinking cursor anymore (vesafb).
