Hello
I am running sarge
with an 2.6.9 kernel. with 4 SATA drives in my HP ml110 server. It has been good
for the last 7 months. But after a standard reboot it started to act very
strange in the boot process.
The boot partition
resides on /dev/sda, which recently was in a linux software raid1. but I had to
replace the other disc and havnt resynced it yet.
I get the error
(addrmarknotfound) and the system halts before mounting the discs and loading
the system. I first thought it was a faulty disc but I lifted it out of the
machine and iinto another sata based computer. there it booted without any
problem. Then I replaced both the controller (promise fasttrack sx4), the
motherboard and the SCSI card (adaptec based). Now the system boots every three
or fourth time I restart it.
I have tried to remove all the PCI cards and restart the
machine, the problem seems to be with the SCSI card, because when I remove it,
the machine comes a bit longer, but instead hangs at "Freeing unused kernel
memory:".
I have
searched for answer about this everywhere, can someone help me? Is it possible for this SCSI card to be incompatible
with my motherboard?
Best
regards
Simon
