Summary|PROBLEM: ACPI check causes |BIOS CMOS boot-order reset
|BIOS to reset on restart |after booting Linux
------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-01-31 19:04 -------
Please boot Linux with "acpi=off" and see if the issue goes away.
If it doesn't, then by definition, this is not a bug in
the Linux kernel ACPI support.

Exactly what failure do you refer to? I don't see one.

No, I don't think Linux is writing to the boot sector.
Do you see a message from the BIOS on reset about an invalid CMOS
checksum and resetting to defaults?

note that bugzilla accepts attachments -- which is a preferable
way to put a dmesg in a bug report vs pasting it into the text.
BTW. it appears you are running a uni-processor kernel on an SMP -- why?
