BUG: nforce IDE DMA with APIC enabled bug has re-emerged Kernel 2.6.4

From: Richard James
Date: Fri Apr 02 2004 - 22:18:47 EST


The ugly nforce IDE DMA with APIC enabled bug has re-emerged on my system

Kernel 2.6.4 fails, they hard lock linux no ctrl-alt-delete, music goes
bzzzzt then stops. I have to either 6 seconds on the power switch or hit the
reset switch to reboot. This usually occurs within a few minutes of booting
or faster if I force a large disk read or copy.

Windows 2000 with the Asus provided drivers works fine.
