The server I have is using an Intel SE7501CW2 server board with 1 Xeon

scsi drives. When I reboot the machine, via ctrl-alt-del, or typing
reboot, it syncs disks, then gives the messages:
All buffers synced.
Uptime: ##m##s
At this point, it just hangs forever and has to be powercycled. I've
tried installing 4.11, 5.4 and 6.0 on this box. The only version that
works properly is 4.11, however, at this point I would prefer to not put
another 4.x box in production. I have tried booting in safe mode and
rebooting and I get the same result. I've tried disabling usb in the
bios, in the kernel, and in both, and it still has the same results.
Any ideas what could fix this?
Hi Chris,
This is not my area of expertise, but this sounds like an ACPI problem to
me. You might try googling that (in conjunction with your motherboard) and
see what comes up.
HTH,
-Andy.
I have tried booting up with ACPI disabled. I still experienced the
same reboot problem. I also thought that safe mode disabled acpi? I
have also updated the bios on the motherboard and the bios on the raid
card to see if they were the problem. Same problem persists.
Chris
