BL35p Opteron 250 kernel panics on X86_64 SMP kernels

 

BL35p Opteron 250 kernel panics on X86_64 SMP kernels

I'm setting up Fedora Core 4 on a set of dual processor BL35p blades. The blades have 2 Opteron 250 (2.4Ghz single-core) CPUs installed. When I boot with the 2.6.11 or the updated 2.6.12 SMP kernel I get a kernel panic and the system halts. The non-SMP kernels boot just fine. Has anyone else experienced this? Any known solutions? Thanks,

Clay

Additional info:

If I boot the smp kernel with the "nosmp" option, it doesn't panic, but still has trouble when it gets to the IDE controller. The message "hda: lost interrupt" appears, then it retries and you get the same thing over and over.
