[arch-general] kernel 2.6.33.3 freezes on boot
Hi list, Since todays's update of the kernel (2.6.33.2 -> 2.6.33.3) my Dell inspiron 1012-9118 (new mini 10) netbook freezes on boot (after displaying "loading modules". I have to poweroff. It is an Atom N450 proc and an x86_64 Archlinux (up-to-date). Has anyone a similar problem?

In your grub line remove 'quiet' if exists and add verbose to see what's actually happening. Without backtrace we can't help. -- Nilesh Govindarajan Site & Server Administrator www.itech7.com मेरा भारत महान ! मम भारत: महत्तम भवतु !

Hi Nilesh Grub (no grub2 here) config file does not contain "quiet" nor "modules=" options. I have added verbose option to existing "rootfstype=ext4" and "single" ones already present for the "fallback" entry. Here is the trace of the boot: [...] loading modules [busy] [...] eth0: RTL8102e [...] input: PC Speaker [...] phy0: Selected rate control algorythm "minstrel" Registered led device: b43-phy0::tx Registered led device: b43-phy0::rx Registered led device: b43-phy0::radio Broadcom 43xx driver loaded [Features: PMLS, Firmware-ID:FW13] cfg80211: World regulatory domain updated (start_freq - end-freq @ bandwith),(max_antenna_gain,max_eirp) (2402000kHz - 2472000kHz @ 40000),(300mBi,2000mBm) (2457000kHz - 2482000kHz @ XXXXX),(300mBi,2000mBm) (2474000kHz - 2494000kHz @ XXXXX),(300mBi,2000mBm) (5170000kHz - 5250000kHz @ XXXXX),(300mBi,2000mBm) (5735000kHz - 5835000kHz @ XXXXX),(300mBi,2000mBm) and it freezes there (XXXX on the four las lines because I forgot to note exactly the bandwith) Seeing that I have deactivated wireless in the BIOS an there is the trace of the boot: [...] loading modules [busy] [...] eth0: RTL8102e [...] input: PC Speaker [...] scsi 4:0:0:0 Direct-Access Generic-Multi-Card 1.00 PQ:0 ANSI:0 CCS sd 4:0:0:0 Attached scsi generic sg1 type 0 sd 4:0:0:0 [sdb] Attached scsi removable disk And it freezes there here are parts of my rc.conf: [...] MOD_AUTOLOAD="yes" MODULES= !usblp !mii !r8169 !pcspkr !snd-mixer-oss !snd-pcm-oss !snd-hwdep !snd-page-alloc !snd-pcm !snd-timer !snd !snd -gda-codec !snd-hda-intel !soundcore acpi-cpufreq speedstep-lib cpufreq-performance cpufreq-ondemand cpufreq-conservative cpufreq-powersave cpufreq-userspace mii r8169 pcspkr snd-mixer-oss snd-pcm-oss snd-hwdep snd-page-alloc snd-pcm snd-timer snd snd-gda-codec snd-hda-intel soundcore [...] here are parts of my mkinitcpio.conf: [...] MODULES"ahci ehci-hcd uhci-hcd ext4 vfat intel_agp drm i915" BINARIES="" FILES="" HOOKS="base udev keymap autodetect pata scsi sata usbinput filesystems resume" Thanks for any clue.

Likely the update breaks some external modules. Do you have any module packages installed that are not part of the kernel package? If yes, you can append "disablemodules=module1,module2" to the kernel commandline. These modules may have to be rebuilt - if you find some, tell us which ones they are. If you have no idea, appending "verbose" to the commandline may give more clues.

I have not built any module myself, all my modules are provided either by kernel26 package or "core" packages.

I have done that, please refer to my answer to Nilesh. Thanks.

Which core packages have you installed that contain modules?

My first answer to your post seems to be blocked (too long due to the list of packages installed). Never mind: I think the kernel26* packages were corrupted during download; when I downloaded again the tree packages and installed them, the system became OK. Thanks.

Does it continue after hitting the 180s timeout? -- Sven-Hendrik
