Hi Atul, If I enable APIC on the 2.6.10 kernel I get exactly the same behavior as I got without APIC.... If I enable APIC-IO, then it starts barking about Interrupt 22 and never finishes... SO... At the minimum, both of these settings do not help and one makes the problem worse in that the sata-vsc module never finishes loading....
Thanks for your response though... At this point I am ready to climb a tree and bark at the moon if it will help.... ;) Dave ************************************************************************ On Mon, 24 Jan 2005, Atul Bhouraskar wrote: > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:linux-kernel- > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Sims > > Sent: Monday, 24 January 2005 13:57 > > > > I then downloaded and built kernel 2.6.10 which boots up fine without > the > > sata_vsc module....
