Description Stephan Böni 2005-10-06 08:14:18 UTC

I'm using the newest xen build from ftp.opensuse.org:

kernel-xen-2.6.13.2-2.i586.rpm
xen-3.0_6715-3.i586.rpm

System startup with xen kernel fails on detecting the boot device, which is 
attached to the qla2300 fibre channel host bus adapter.

qla2300 0000:05:01.0: Found an ISP2312, irq 185, iobase 0xf8812000
qla2300 0000:05:01.0: Configuring PCI space...
qla2300 0000:05:01.0: Configure NVRAM parameters...
qla2300 0000:05:01.0: Verifying loaded RISC code...
qla2300 0000:05:01.0: Waiting for LIP to complete...

Until here it's alle fine, but then:

input: PS/2 Generic Mouse on synaptcs-pt/serio0
qla2300 0000:05:01.0: LIP reset occured (f7f7).
qla2300 0000:05:01.0: LOOP UP detected (2 Gbps).
qla2300 0000:05:01.0: Topology - (F_Port), Host Loop address 0xffff

qla2300 0000:04:02.0:

Waiting for device /dev/sda4 to appear: .....not found --- exiting to /bin/sh

With the bigsmp kernel it goes on without any problem:

SCSI device sda: 41943040 512-byte hdwr sectors (21475 MB)
SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back
SCSI device sda: 41943040 512-byte hdwr sectors (21475 MB)
SCSI device sda: drive cache: write back
 sda: sda1 sda2 sda3 sda4
....usw.

Even with the last build of Xen 2.0 it works fine.

***  S O L V E D  ***

A new BIOS update has solved my ACPI problems. And with running ACPI the xen 
kernel does booting without any problems.
