[Vini-dev] Kernel panic problem during VINI working

[HyunRyong Lee]

Hi all,

This is HyunYong who is interested in VINI.

I installed MyVINI testbed at my lab.
I have problems with running VINI (Trellis) on Dell Precision T3400 model.
During some operations with VINI on those machines (actually 5 T3400 machines), kernel panic problem happens and shows message like below.
I am also running VINI on another Dell machine and there is no problem like this (never!).

I asked to Dell service center about this problem and they said that it might be a problem of OS, not HW.
To check this issue, I installed Fedora 8 (since VINI is based on F8) on Dell T3400 and there was no any problem till now.
There are also many Dell T3400 machines running different Fedora versions (F7,F9...) in my lab and there was no problem like this.

Actually I am not sure but I think that there might be some problems(?) between Dell T3400 machine and VINI OS.

To solve this issue, I tried to install VINI (as guest OS) by using Sun VirtualBox on Ubuntu OS (8.10).
During installation, after showing "starting from new kernel" message, it shows same (not exactly same..) error message.

Is there anybody who can give me some comments?

Sincerely yours,
HyunYong.
