Package: linux-image-2.6.18-4-686
Version: mptbase boot hang on Dell Precision 650
Severity: important


The problem is related to the Fusion-MPT SCSI card:

LSI Logic / Symbios Logic 53c1030 PCI-X Fusion-MPT Dual Ultra320 SCSI

The last kernel which boots successfully is 2.6.18-2. 2.6.18-3,
2.6.18-4, and 2.6.20 hang immediately following the completion of
init-bottom.

In some cases the mpt driver will trigger a backtrace
("mptspi_dv_renegotiate_work+0xc/0x37"); I haven't been able to capture
the actual backtrace however as it's usually lost in the flurry of
usb-related messages.

Based on #416210 and some googling I tried the following:
- Using the -486 kernel
- Using noapic, nosmp, acpi=off, acpi_serialize, pci=routeirq alone or
  in combination

-- System Information:
Debian Release: 4.0
  APT prefers stable
  APT policy: (500, 'stable')
Architecture: i386 (x86_64)
Shell:  /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash
Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-4-amd64
Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968)
