Bug ID: 62971
Summary: Kernel 3.11.1 and higher does not boot on VMware VM
Product: SCSI Drivers
Version: 2.5
Kernel Version: 3.11.1
Hardware: i386
OS: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: high
Priority: P1
Component: BUSLOGIC
Assignee: scsi_drivers-buslogic@kernel-bugs.osdl.org
Reporter: bojan@rexursive.com
Regression: No
See downstream bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1015558
It seems that changes to BusLogic driver in 3.11 may have caused this problem.
An interesting link, including a patch, is here:
http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-scsi/msg69044.html
AFAICT, it has not been merged into mainline or stable yet.
PS. Note that I am not in a very good position to test, bisect etc., because I
do not control the VMware installation, only the Fedora guest OS. However,
there are folks in the downstream bug that can test.
