Hi! I am trying to get a 2.4 kernel running on my compaq presario 900z. So far the only kernel I got running on this is 2.2 which comes with debian installer (output from lspci-vv from it is attached). I tried prebuilt 2.4.19-k7 from unstable and self-built 2.4.19 , 2.4.20-rc2 and currently I am at 2.4.20-rc2-ac1 all with no success. The behaviour I was getting varied ( for example I had it hang right after it said "Partition check:" ). Right now what I have is that after the message "NET4: Unix domain sockets ... " I am getting the following:
------- hda: status timeout: status=0xd0 { Busy } hda: drive not ready for command ... ide0: reset timed-out, status=0xd0 ----- (this is repeated several times with fs messages about not being able to read superblock) ....and finally: ------- Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 03:02 ------------- earlier I get these messages, which suggest to me that there is a problem with interrupts: ----- .... IRQ routing conflict for 00:08.0, have irq 5, want irq 4 ..... PCI: No IRQ known for interrupt pin ? of device 00:0a.0. Please try using pci=biosirq yenta 00:0a.0: Preassigned resource 0 busy, reconfiguring... yenta 00:0a.0: Preassigned resource 1 busy, reconfiguring... yenta 00:0a.0: Preassigned resource 2 busy, reconfiguring... yenta 00:0a.0: Preassigned resource 3 busy, reconfiguring... Yenta IRQ list 0000, PCI irq0 .... ---------------------- and also (not sure this is related): ----- spurious 8259A interrupt: IRQ7. ----- any ideas as to what is happening and how to fix it? Would it be a good idea to forward this to kernel-dev? thanks for the help -- fedor. ---- "I've seen better heads on half a pint of beer."
