Subject: IBM xSeries 360 4 x Xeon kernel 2.2 problems
Date: Sun, 11 Aug 2002 21:29:51 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <3D570F8E.B0B8EE96@charter.net> (raw)
Hi-
There was an e-mail thread back in march where someone had trouble
running kernel 2.2.21 SMP on an IBM xSeries 360 w/ 4 processors in it.
I'm trying to get 2.2 running on one of these as we are currently
dependent on 2.2. A UP 2.2 kernel runs just fine.
I've tried SMP 2.2.21 and 2.2.21-rc4 and get the same results. It
behaves as if interrupts just aren't occurring at all. Apparently an
APIC table isn't being parsed properly -- the boot messages below can
help confirm this.
Any 2.4 kernel seems to run just fine on this system -- so the hardware
should be OK.
Does anyone know of any solution to this?? or forgive me if I missed an
already known solution out there -- I've scoured the web and IBM pretty
well and only found the earlier thread from march 2002 timeframe. Any
help would greatly appreciated / pointers to already known solutions
etc.
Thanks

Here's the boot messages showing that the box doesn't get beyond SCSI
RAID disk detection due to apparent lack of interrupts:
