Okay, I have now upgraded to the 1004 bios version, and reinstalled SuSE linux 7.1 using the minimum install, and added the packages required to compile the kernel.
Unfortunately I still have big problems with booting this computer.
SuSE installer installs 3 kernels: Linux Linux 2.4 Suse
All of these use kernel 2.4.0, but with different configurations.
All of these fails during boot, the last message i see is "Starting Syslog", then i get a blank screen and nothing more happens. Only thing that works then is a hard boot.
I managed to boot the 'suse' kernel once, and the attached files are from that session. The file 'config' is from the 2.4.10 kernel i compiled and tried to boot, but that too gets the same errors.
It seems to me that it has a lot of problems with the HDD/-controller, as it keeps complaining about it all the time.
Among others, these are the strangest in my openion: <4>Warning, log replay starting on readonly filesystem <4>hda: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } <4>hda: dma_intr: error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC } <4>hda: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } <4>hda: dma_intr: error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC } <4>hda: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } <4>hda: dma_intr: error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC } <4>hda: dma_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error } <4>hda: dma_intr: error=0x84 { DriveStatusError BadCRC } <4>ide0: reset timed-out, status=0xd0
I have tried changing the disk, changing cable, tested all HDD-settings (MW, SMART, DMA)
As this is a quite attractive server board, I hope I will get some good help with this problem.
Any additional information needed? Tell me..
