Description daRonin 2004-06-29 08:48:34 UTC 
Kernel 2.6.6 freezes on SunFire V100 after initializing ALI15X3 IDE controller. The freezing must be on hardware level. After reseting machine through LOM, probe-ide doesn't return any hard drives. Power needs to be unplugded and plugged back in for OpenBoot to see the IDE hard drives again. This doesn't happen if ide=nodman is specified as a kernel parameter.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot 2.6.6 kernel
Actual Results:  
Console: ttyS0 (SU)

Comment 1 Greg Kroah-Hartman (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-06-30 16:36:15 UTC 
Does this happen on a stock 2.6.7 kernel from kernel.org?
Comment 2 Daniel Drake (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2004-08-26 08:03:26 UTC 
Please retest with the latest clean kernel (currently 2.6.8) as already requested, and reopen this bug if the issue still exists. Thanks.
