[K12OSN] power outage problem

[Daniel Kuecker]

I did reboot the server today, and chose the older kernel. i think it was 2.6.15 and now it works fine. the newer kernel on the server was causing the problem! thanks for the input. it saved me! ;-)

Interesting ....

I have access to 3 Athlon64- based machines. The 2 which run 32- bit
Core 5 lock up about 10 seconds after the boot phase is finished IF I
select that 2187 kernel, but run just fine on the 2174 kernel. Adding
"noapic" to the "kernel" line in grub.conf makes no difference, FWIW.

The 64- bit OS system is OK with 2187

Anyway, it sounds like I'm not the only one with a problem with the
new kernel, and it's not just Athlon- related.
