Dear Maintainer,
*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***
* What led up to the situation?
Images testing for SW RAID release 11.6
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
Installation testing option test matrix option #3 with the following
disk partitions
sda1 primary 1GB B K raid (#1)
sda3 primary 15GB K raid (#0)
sda5 logical 1GB F swap swap
RAID1 #0 jfs /
RAID1 #1 ext2 /boot
* What was the outcome of this action?
kernel crash with
[ 2.671938] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000028
(console output attached)
* What outcome did you expect instead?
Boot into fresh installed system :-)
* More details
(1) I have demonstrated this to Sledge on MULTIPLE instalations, both
BIOS and UEFI and various degraded RAID configurations.
(2) It appears to be Machine spacific; i.e. Sledge has been unable to
reproduce the problem on his hardware
(3) We have seen the problem on installations of debian 11.5 as well
(4) Occasionally I have been able to get lucky and the system has
booted. This, coupled with #2 might suggest a race hazard / timing
issue?
Sorry
/Andy
