Here is the release information for that kernel - note the bit about hanging!! It does mention it for SCSI but I note a couple of things: - Serial ATA uses SCSI code in some instances - 2.6.11 release candidate 4 has support for blacklisting some problematic Serial ATA drives - mostly Seagates... If you are running Serial ATA and your new drive is a Seagate then this may be the problem . ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Dave Jones <davej(a)redhat.com> Date: Tue, 15 Feb 2005 20:38:13 -0500 Subject: Fedora Core 3 Update: kernel-2.6.10-1.766_FC3 To: fedora-announce-list(a)redhat.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2005-142 2005-02-15 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 3 Name : kernel Version : 2.6.10 Release : 1.766_FC3 Summary : The Linux kernel (the core of the Linux operating system) Description : The kernel package contains the Linux kernel (vmlinuz), the core of any Linux operating system. The kernel handles the basic functions of the operating system: memory allocation, process allocation, device input and output, etc. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Wed Feb 09 2005 Dave Jones <davej(a)redhat.com> - Backport some exec-shield fixes from devel/ branch. - Scan all SCSI LUNs by default. Theoretically, some devices may hang when being probed, though there should be few enough of these that we can blacklist them instead of having to whitelist every other device on the planet. * Tue Feb 08 2005 Dave Jones <davej(a)redhat.com> - Use both old-style and new-style for USB initialisation. * Mon Feb 07 2005 Dave Jones <davej(a)redhat.com> [2.6.10-1.762_FC3, 2.6.10-1.13_FC2] - Update to 2.6.10-ac12 --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/3/ 9a199e9b5ea398be70eefdbaa7d44ad9 SRPMS/kernel-2.6.10-1.766_FC3.src.rpm a74a341f850ec8c42b7a0ff6d7da4558 x86_64/kernel-2.6.10-1.766_FC3.x86_64.rpm 1bd4b68e82e2d166f1e9ab39100bafd7 x86_64/kernel-smp-2.6.10-1.766_FC3.x86_64.rpm 5cd961d5d3530db2fe30a0e6add85152 x86_64/debug/kernel-debuginfo-2.6.10-1.766_FC3.x86_64.rpm b143299deae186212d26a48ae78d1145 x86_64/kernel-doc-2.6.10-1.766_FC3.noarch.rpm 44b7cc733539619815020eae8b61062a i386/kernel-2.6.10-1.766_FC3.i586.rpm 65057eb315149d6657e42089c1af8a00 i386/kernel-smp-2.6.10-1.766_FC3.i586.rpm c5100f401158541766076dfa92389fe0 i386/debug/kernel-debuginfo-2.6.10-1.766_FC3.i586.rpm 6f034a6e59f1009b6a869303f7f3d4bf i386/kernel-2.6.10-1.766_FC3.i686.rpm 63cc52fd4998fe49b7d989886754e5bd i386/kernel-smp-2.6.10-1.766_FC3.i686.rpm 9a423b5e2afff92813947b126fe5749d i386/debug/kernel-debuginfo-2.6.10-1.766_FC3.i686.rpm b143299deae186212d26a48ae78d1145 i386/kernel-doc-2.6.10-1.766_FC3.noarch.rpm This update can also be installed with the Update Agent; you can launch the Update Agent with the 'up2date' command. --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- fedora-announce-list mailing list fedora-announce-list(a)redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-announce-list
