I've had acpi errors like the ones you list, that went away when I
installed SL6.0
Before then I had to boot acpi=off.  Your board is not SMP and does not
support ACPI.

Since my mail reader translated HTML to plain text, I see nothing in
bold nor in red.
Generally, people on mailing lists prefer plain text to HTML mail.

Put 'acpi=off' in the boot line since your hardware has no ACPI.

You don't need an SMP kernel, you have 1 CPU with 1 core only.

There's a suggestion I'd follow: boot line should have acpi=off
pci=biosirq

Since you're building your own kernel, you can switch off SMP and ACPI.
Likely APIC and IO_APIC also.
Since you have only 1/2GB RAM, I'd switch off things I wasn't going to
use.

OK.
But what could be the cause for throwing this ACPI errors?
I have enabled ACPI in kernel config and the same is working fine with
kernel-2.6.18-128 version.

Thanks for the Help.

You do know that the *stock* CentOS 5.x kernels (2.6.18-...) are already
built as SMP kernels?  That is, under RHEL 5/CentOS 5 you don't even get
uniprocessor kernels, unless you build them yourself (and there isn't

And if you tweaked the .config files in the SRPM, please post your
altered file or a diff against the original file.

[CentOS] ACPI errors during bootup

2011-03-23 Thread sri
Hi,

Am trying to build SMP kernel.
Took kernel-2.6.18-194.src.rpm, extracted, rpmbuilded with SMP option.
Successfully compile the new kernel and when using that kernel to boot up,
following errors were shown up(highlighted in bold & red color):
My kernel config file has ACPI and PCI configs enabled.

Any pointers to what caused the problem are appreciated.
