did you know you can disable this at boot time? Check it out: |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
| $ grep mce /usr/src/linux/Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt |
| 13 |
| mce [IA-32] Machine Check Exception |
| 14 |
| nomce [IA-32] Machine Check Exception |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
just add 'nomce' to your kernel boot line in grub and you should be able |
| 17 |
to boot with MCE turned of to reconfigure. |
