Both machines are now back up and running with udev-068-r1 so I can't |
| 41 |
get the dmesg for when it went wrong at the moment. I'm running kernel |
| 42 |
2.6.13-r4 on both machines but I tried booting with 2.6.13-r3 and |
| 43 |
2.6.12-r10 and they made no difference. The drives in both machines are |
| 44 |
Samsung Spinpoint SATA drives. This is the only thing the machines have |
| 45 |
in common: The server is a P4 2.8 with Hyperthreading and therefore an |
| 46 |
SMP kernel while the HTPC is an AMD64. |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
I will upgrade udev to 070 again on the HTPC and try to get the dmesg |
| 49 |
for it a bit later on. The machines busy at the moment. When I do this, |
| 50 |
is there any other information I can get from the logs etc that will help? |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
Cheers, |
| 53 |
Dave. |
