using "echo reboot $kernel>/dev/reboot" with mp irqs, i'm getting one of three conditions 1. a normal and very quick start of the new kernel. (one odd bit: lapicerror: 0x00000000. i assume that's the unanswered ipi.) 2. a reset and not a reboot 3. a hang right after after the LAPIC: ... line.
i can get all three conditions on my little atom machine. other machines would rather not boot the new kernel, they either reset or hang. so the question is, is this a known problem or is this a hardware or operator error? - erik
