The UP kernel didn't change anything, same error on console. In addition this kernel crashes every second time or so immediately after boot (some pci stuff in backtrace), I'll try catch some error messages.... > Or ensure that you've enabled the io-apci in Kconfig and boot with > nmi_watchdog=1. Except the line "testing NMI watchdog ... OK." in the boot messages I don't see any difference. :-( thanks anyway, Markus -- A CRAY is the only computer that runs an endless loop in just 4 hours...
