Bug#650119: linux-image-3.1.0-1-amd64: fails to boot on HP DL380 g4



Hello ?

When I am not wrong some stable kernels are taken from the list at kernel.org
cause they were buggy ... only few are left.

I had trouble with 3.1.2 and still with 3.1.5 (both stable), cause they dont boot
and hang themselves up with:
FATAL: Could not load /lib/modules/3.1.x/modules.dep: No such file or directory

Installation was done correctly.

Greetings
Val.

Ben:

   Now comes the head-scratching part.  When I modify the grub boot
command line to send output to my laptop through the serial port it
boots correctly!

[    0.000000] Command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.1.0-1-amd64
root=UUID=155d483d-563c-4c25-b9f2-bf0b61e14041 ro console=ttyS0,9600
console=tty0
and the cciss IRQ gets rerouted to 19.

The output appears on both my laptop and the main console screen.  I can
capture the output on the laptop and the kernel captures it in /var/log.

If I boot it with this command line it will lock up every time.

Command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.1.0-1-amd64
root=UUID=155d483d-563c-4c25-b9f2-bf0b61e14041 ro

The attached file CAPTURE.TXT was created on an old IBM laptop running
Win2k using Hyperterm and sneaker-netted to the Proliant using a USB
stick.  That means that at least the front USB port is working.

    Let me study the HP manuals tomorrow and see what I can do with the
Integrated Lights-Out module.  I've never used it on these machines but
have used Sun's LOM on my sparc servers many times.

Pete

Meanwhile ..............
