Same thing for me : I insert noapic in GRUB, but my gateway still hangs randomly. I'll try to recompile the 8.2 kernel, and/or to downgrade to the 8.1 kernel (hope that the 8.1 kernel will run fine with the 8.2 distribution). N. Le Vendredi 17 Mai 2002 04:14, vous avez écrit : hi:

Don't know enough on this to say anything with authority, but I am curious about one thing. Near as I can tell the stock kernel with 8.1 came out before the change in the LVM and the ensuing wars the version in 8.2 has the new one. Could this be the cause of the trouble? I'm grabbing at

I should report that I got a message from Tom Wanka. The noapic boot option worked for him (he had a serverworks chipset), so this will probably also work for you. We do not use this chipset, so it is not clear if it will work in our case. There could also be a bug in the kernel. I found this

hi: noapic didn't work for me. the server will hang under high loading after 4 or 5 hours. i use ctcs testing program to test. mdk 8.1 or red-hat 7.2 didn't have this problem. sorry i didn't have a chance to test it with red-hat 7.3, bc4 the server is one line with mdk 8.1 now...
