Subject:   Cyclades multiport serial freezes on boot
Message-ID:  <20020304112038.GA35994@krijt.livens.net>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help

I'm building a terminal server box with a Cyclades Cyclom-Ye PCI
multiport serial board and a fresh installed 4.5-RELEASE.

The card is detected, but a bit later, the kernel freezes.

This only happens when the serial port extender box is actually
connected to the card.  (There is a host adapter, that you connect
with a SCSI type cable to an external box that has all the serial
ports.)

Also, when I first got the problem, the system freezed on the probe of
an unused ethernet driver.  I removed that driver from the kernel, and
the it freezed on something else, so I conclude that it just freezes
some time after the probe of the cy.

In the kernel config, I have just added "device cy" and commented out
unused an added some unrelated things, I don't think it's relevant, I
also tried GENERIC with just cy added.

Any ideas what I can do ?  (I searched google and the pr database)

Thanks,

Wim Livens.
