From: Mario Giammarco To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Type: text/plain Date: Sat, 13 Nov 2004 16:33:57 +0100 Message-Id: <1100360037.8303.7.camel@r50p> Mime-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Evolution 2.0.2 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org I have this situation: computer A: ahtlon 1600 with fibre channel hard disks connected with mpt fusion controller. computer B: dual pentium III with ide software raid. in computer A hard disks have unused partitions, so I connected computer B to fc hard disks in A with another mpt fusion controller. I have tried with kernel 2.6.8-2.6.9 with/without kolivas, smp and nosmp, etc. I have tried also raid/noraid smp/nosmp I use debian/unstable, tried with different "init" packages. I copy using computer B the ide raid contents in fc hard disks (cp -a) all ok without errors, I check filesystems: no errors. Now I reboot computer B from fibre hard disk and it hangs just after init: I have tried with several file systems: - with reiser it says filesystem corrupted - with jfs it hangs with "respawning too fast" - with xfs it hangs with init: segmentation violation I boot the same partition with computer A and it works... I am desperate, what can I do? Thanks in advance for any reply!
