Hi,

When the kernel boots, I get a relatively long wait (a minute or more)
at the harddisk detection. The HD is a IBM-DTLA/30.7Gb; CPU is Intel
1.7 GHz.
I don't know the answer to your question ... but I can say a few things
about the issue:
1) I have it happening on a few older machines
2) These machines are rock-stable in every other regard
Hope this is useful.

For the whole 'dmesg' output, see below in the PS; the place where the
wait occurs is here:
[...]

  uhci0: Intel 82801BA/BAM (ICH2) USB controller USB-A port 
0xb400-0xb41f irq 11 at device 31.2 on pci0
[...]

Any ideas why the kernel boot is not going smooth at that point?

Thanks!

Rob.

Long wait for harddisk detection during kernel boot

2003-04-03 Thread Rob Lahaye


Hi,

I'm using 4.7 Release.

When the kernel boots, I get a relatively long wait (a minute or more)
at the harddisk detection. The HD is a IBM-DTLA/30.7Gb; CPU is Intel
1.7 GHz.
For the whole 'dmesg' output, see below in the PS; the place where the
wait occurs is here:
[...]

  ata1: at 0x170 irq 15 on atapci0
  uhci0: Intel 82801BA/BAM (ICH2) USB controller USB-A port 0xb400-0xb41f irq 11 at 
device 31.2 on pci0
