? kernel panic while installing?

Post by John Roge » Sun, 27 Aug 1995 04:00:00



while trying to install linux on a PCI motherboard w/ an AMD 486DX4-100MHz chip
I got a kernel panic & everything stopped. Can Linux be installed on this
system?  The error occured while loading the ram disk:
    Kernel panic:  VFS: Free block list corrupted
    ll_rw_block: trying to read non-existent block-device 0000 (35389440) [0 0
    353894401]
after this there was half a screenful of numbers.

I have 8M of 72pin RAM, so it can't be running out of memory.  Do I need
something special to install linux on a machine with an amd cpu?  I know there
are special kernel addons for the cyrix chip.
The version of linux on my boot and root disks is 1.2.3 (the version I was
going to install is 1.2.8).  Can anyone help?

Thnkyou in advance,
  John Rogers

I solved the ramdrive problem by disabling the external cache but now I have
another problem -- "unknown interrupt". I romoved allcards form the expansion
slots and still get the problem.  I booted into dos and used msd to check the
IRQ settings and all seem normal.  Has anyone else had this problem and solved
it or does anyone have any suggestions?  I am using a PVI-486SP3 motherboard
with built in IDE/floppy/IO controller and an AMD 486DX4-100 cpu.

Thanx in advance,

1. Kernel panic: aha152x panic (during LILO install)

Hi,

I've read through the FAQ, and saw nothing pertaining directly to my problem.

During the Install protion of LILO, upon writing the partition information
to the disk, I receive a loud constant beep from my mother board, and a Linux
error report that looks like this:

aha152x_panic: unable to send message
QUEUE STATUS
issue_SC:
current_SC:
0x00368769: target=0; lun=0; cmd= ( 0a 00 00 00 02 00 ); residual=1024; buffers=0; phase |; in other ( MESSAGE OUT ); next=0x00000000
disconnected_SC:

on bus: SCSISEQ ( SELI ); SCSISIG ( MESSAGE OUT ); INTSTAT ( hi ); SSTAT ( SELDO PHASEMIS REQINIT ); SSTAT ( PHASEMIS REQINIT ); SXFRCTL0 ( CH1 ); SINGAL ( ATNI BSYI REQI ); SELID ( 81 ), SSTAT2 ( SEMPTY ); SFCNT ( 0 ); FCNT ( 0 ); DMACNTRL0 ( 16BIT PIO READ );
enabled interrupts ( ENPHASEMIS ENREQINIT )
Kernel panic: aha152x panic

I'm in the early learning stages of unix, and I'm brand new at SCSI, so if I'm
making a simple/stupid mistake hear, I apologize.  I've got a SIDE VLB
controller card, which is "completely compatible" with Adaptec AHA1522 cards.
I'm using a 486 DX2 66 platform with ISA/VLB board.  I've tried reassigning
the Quantum Empire 1.08 GB drive from SCSI ID 6 to ID 0, but get the identical
message.  I hope someone out there can help me out with this.

Either e-mail or post responses are OK with me.

Thanks in advance,

Steve

PS.  The above error hangs the system, requiring a reboot.
