<0> No, board hasn't been changed
<0> it's definitely what came in there.
<1> roguedaemon, why u say xeon?
<2> f_newton: from the specs
<2> unless the manufacturer lied
<1> ah gotta 1 meg L2 cache etc?
<0> Well, it's a Xeon mainboard...
<0> I could unscrew the heatsinks and check. ;)
<2> f_newton: the board model/brand has been posted
<1> xeons are kinda a bit bigger then the standard p4 board
<1> k
<0> The mainboard is a Supero P4DPL-M rev. 1.21
<0> It's large, yes
<2> thats Super
<1> not really an ultra thin
<1> lol



<0> err, whatever
<1> ok my quad xeon runs fedora very well
<0> Hey, I'm just reading what RackSaver put on the outside of the 1U on the faceplate. ;)
<1> thats fine DanteAlighieri i am mainly curious as to the reason for your dilemna
<2> oh, i thought you said the cover was off it
<0> Well yeah... the cover is off
<0> I can read the mainboard model number
<2> DanteAlighieri: what other hardware is plugged into it
<0> But I was reading ultrathin from the front paanel
<0> that's where they labeled it a "RS-1100"
<0> What other hardware? Eh... a floppy... right now a CD-ROM drive via external USB
<0> a maxtor HD, new
<0> that's all really
<2> usb huh
<0> Yeah, there wasnt an onboard CDROM
<2> any way to take that out of the picture?
<0> Well, I could unplug it... but then I couldnt get into rescue mode
<0> And it works fine in UP, don't forget
<1> lol
<2> yeah, like use an ide cdrom
<2> DanteAlighieri: doesnt matter when youre digging
<0> The IDE cdrom they tried didn't work for some reason...
<0> I dont know why..
<0> I wasn't there when they did that.
<2> DanteAlighieri: ahh, the plot thickens
<0> Heh, oh yeah...
<0> We hired people to upgrade our cluster
<0> and then I got blank stares when "trouble" arose...
<2> well, sounds like they are as surprised as you
<0> So I'm doing my own investigation
<1> and what imperical data do you have?
<0> After a fresh install of the newest version of Fedora...
<0> attempting to boot from the HD causes a kernel panic
<1> fc4 correct?
<0> yup
<3> roguedaemon - the motherboard is radeon xpress 200
<2> DanteAlighieri: remember, you hired someone to install an experimental operating system on an unknown system
<4> clear
<1> DanteAlighieri, this box is running a type 3 scsi isnt it?
<3> roguedaemon - any known problems? here are the specs: http://www.ati.com/products/radeonxpress200/specs.html
<2> Anil: no, no known problems
<2> as far as i know
<2> which isnt very far
<3> hehe
<0> roguedemon: well... sorta. ;)
<0> f_newton: I don't know...
<0> We'll probably just end up going with RH Enterprise edition tomorrow or something and make THEM make it work. ;)
<1> DanteAlighieri, I could be off the mark here but it occurs to me that when you boot up it doesnt read from the storage device your data is on... like you are running an scsi sys and trying to boot from ide
<0> f_newton: how might I discover if this is the case?
<1> in your bios or just opening up the case and seeing if you can find the scsi card and or raid cars
<1> uh cards
<0> well there's a big empty spot on the mobo with the letter SCSI and a bunch of contacts...
<0> I'm guessing that's where the SCSI chipset would go
<1> how new is this?
<0> letter -> SCSI
<2> err...
<0> New? The board is from 10/02
<0> err, letter -> letters
<5> salut!
<1> i am surprised this cluster node is running ide... I find that hard to accept



<2> DanteAlighieri: did you post some pictures earlier?
<4> DanteAlighieri: Ugh. Redhat Enterprise? :|
<0> Only picture was of the error message on screen
<0> Want a photo of the mainboard?
<1> jsoft dont bite the hand that feeds fedora
<2> DanteAlighieri: yes, where is that
<2> DanteAlighieri: no, the error
<0> ok, one sec
<6> fun
<0> http://www.digitalgrapefruit.com/temp/Error.jpg
<2> ***y
<0> Gotta love old school viewsonic LCD monitors! ;)
<1> thats not an lcd nor is it a pic of the mb
<4> f_newton: I dont care about the hand the feeds fedora :P
<0> That's an LCD monitor
<1> I do
<1> looks like a cathode tube to me
<0> ViewPanel VPA 150
<2> DanteAlighieri: what happened right before that
<0> Trust me, I know what an LCD is. :)
<0> roguedemon: we turned the machine on. :)
<1> maybe its just a bad angle
<1> anyway... not the issue
<4> Good old kernel panics. Aint seen one of them in a while.
<1> I want to look down at the mother board and see what its missing
<2> DanteAlighieri: so what happened with the logs
<0> Well, I posted the latest one...
<0> http://rafb.net/paste/results/mcX9TQ74.html
<2> did you boot the smp kernel before you booted rescue mode
<0> yup
<7> DanteAlighieri, try this http://www.fedorafaq.org/#otherinstall
<2> and was the date on the file what it should be from that boot
<0> roguedaemon, well yeah... but I have just a date, not a time
<2> DanteAlighieri: why no time
<0> Well, ls -al didn't give time...
<0> what's the best way to view a timestamp?
<1> hey Southern_Gentlem Sonar_Guy says you aint showin up much anymore... how ya be?
<2> ls -al should show you the time
<8> DanteAlighieri: Does it always work with uniprocessor and never work with SMP?
<0> Southern_Gentlem : tried the acpi=off and apm=off earlier along with noapci and pci = bios and nobios
<0> gdb: that seems to be the case, yes
<0> rogue, one sec
<8> DanteAlighieri: This is AMD64 you said?
<0> No, dual Xeons
<1> no he said this is xeon
<1> but with 512k L2 cache?
<1> what xeon is that?
<0> Uh, lemme see
<8> DanteAlighieri: What model motherboard?
<0> The mainboard is a Supero P4DPL-M rev. 1.21
<0> "Super"
<0> Not supero
<2> f_newton: lots of them
<0> According to roguedaemon.
<1> I guess I just got lucky eh?
<2> supermicro
<0> http://www.digitalgrapefruit.com/temp/LCD%20001.jpg
<0> http://www.digitalgrapefruit.com/temp/LCD%20002.jpg
<0> f_newton: those are for you. ;)
<2> why are we looking at a crappy lcd
<0> newton didn't believe it was an LCD
<1> lol I must say that is an lcd
<0> a crappy LCD from the time before time, but an LCD nonetheless. :)
<2> well now that thats settled...
<1> I thought it was settled earlier
<0> Oh, actually, rogue, that first one shows you the ls -al with dmesg in it
<0> and, come to think of it... the computer thinks its tomorrow
<2> lame
<2> heheh
<2> so it does
<8> DanteAlighieri: Does this look like your issue?
<8> Q: I have ICP 8123RZ Raid controller in P4DME-M board with Red Hat 8.0, during the O.S. install everything went smoothly but when I try to reboot or shutdown the Server that give me a error message "Kernel panic&&&.." and system hang-up?
<8> A: This is known issue by Intel(ICP) Raid controller, so please contact with Intel(ICP) for detail, thanks!
<2> maybe thats the problem with the timestamps? ;)
