I am using Grub 1.96, seems lsmmap is not in the command list Here is the initial output about memory mapping: [0.00] Command line: BOOT_IMAGE=(hd0,1)/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35.13_test-x64_2.0 root=/dev/sda1 ro [0.00] BIOS-provided physical RAM map: [0.00] BIOS-e820: 0

That should be Ok as long as you’re using a 64b kernel. Can you run ‘lsmmap’ from a grub2 prompt and send the results? Also, it would be useful to get the beginning of a non-tboot boot in order to see how Linux is seeing the memory map. Joe From: Ning Qu [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesd

OK, I see the lines now. I think the following may be the problem: TBOOT: no e820 map, mem_lower=27a, mem_upper=33d5e4 Can you send your grub.conf file? Joe From: Ning Qu [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, February 28, 2012 4:18 PM To: Cihula, Joseph Cc: Wei, Gang; [email protected]

Yes, kernel works fine without tboot, but hangs up there when tboot loads the kernel, even if TPM is usable ... With tboot, the previous email has all the logs, you can tell it's from kernel when there is no tboot prefix in the line. For non-tboot boot, do you need the full log? Best wishes, --

Can you also capture the output from the Linux kernel (on both a tboot and non-toot boot)? (I presume the kernel works fine if you don’t use tboot?) Joe From: Ning Qu [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, February 28, 2012 3:44 PM To: Wei, Gang Cc: [email protected] Subject:
