Sorry for the delay in responding.

I put the log here: http://ben.nerp.net/voyage-boot.log.bz2

serial8250: ttyS1 at I/O 0x2f8 (irq = 3) is a 16550A

The server stops at this line, but eventually keeps going, very very slowly.

I will run more tests tonight.

Hi Ben,

Since you are using serial console, I would suggest you put the console output for us to investigate.

Sorry, I forgot to mention in my earlier mail. These blade servers do not have a console at all, they only support serial installs.

I'm not sure exactly what the issue is yet, because after waiting a long long time (10+min) it eventually gets past the serial driver loading, but it never completes boot. It fails somewhere in the initrd. I will try and log a boot sequence. Unfortunately, the voyage kernel disables the kernel message timestamps so it will be harder to debug the length of time it takes to boot. Can those timestamps be enabled via boot args?

Hi Ben,

I suggest you to use console terminal option when installing, or remove ttyS0 option at grub prompt.

I'm trying to get voyage-current (as of yesterday) booted on a fairly old Trasmeta based blade server by RLX. I am able to boot Ubuntu hardy, but the 2.6.26-486-voyage kernel will not boot. It gets stuck after trying to load the serial drivers. I chose Generic PC for install, and serial console at 38400. (deafult for this system) I also had no problem booting lenny.
