I cant get any logs from netconsole. With ACPI enabled it drops dead just after the kernel hands control to Init. When I reboot with acpi disabled there is no trace of the previous boot in /var/log/message or kernel logs. The network card I have is a Tigon3 and its not initialised before the system dies... or so it looks (altho I cant seem to get any netconsole working - I suspect pebkac) I have tried to find an option where the kernel boot is logged explicitly to disk, but I cant seem to find the option. There is so much chaff I cant seem to get my brain to find the REAL options list thats up to date. Any pointers are appreciated Richard Andrew Morton wrote: > On Tue, 29 Apr 2008 07:53:57 +0100 Richard wrote: > > >> Hi all, >> >> Using an AMD Sempron notebook (HP Compaq 6715b) single processor >> machine, It shuts down during bootup when ACPI is fully enabled.
