Hello,

I have recently been trying to get Hardy working on an IBM 3850 M2
server. In each case it locks up during the kernel boot process. I have
tried pretty much every kernel boot append option that would normally
assist in getting past the boot process with no luck
(apic/noapic/noacpi/pci options/irc routing options etc).

Each time it boots it always bombs at this section

[ 10.058737] PCI: Using configuration type 1

The system is a 2 x Quad Core XEON system. Does anyone have any ideas or
solutions on trying to install Hardy (i386 or x64) on this platform?

Regards,

Jimmy

To resolve this issue Ive done the following maxcpus=1 in the kernel
append line. That allows the system to get through the install. Once the
system is installed the system appears to boot and run fine without any
problems.
