possibly a missing interrupt?
CONFIG_ACPI=y
any difference if booted with "acpi=off" or "acpi=noirq"?
Yes. In both cases, the system appears to boot normally but I'm unable to login or connect via ssh. Also there's a "device not ready" message after the scsi initialization which I don't normally see. I've attached the scsi initialization output. The PF_NETLINK error messages after the login prompt in this output are created whenever I try to log in or connect via ssh.
Please confirm that vanilla 2.6.13 has none of these symptoms.
Please apply just the ACPI part of the 2.6.13-mm1 patch to see if
these issues are caused by that or if they are caused by something
else in the mm patch.
