hello , i have some terrible bug with 2.6.3 kernel
i use 2.6.3-rc3 before with any problems
the error began appearing with 2.6.3-rc4 and 2.6.3 kernel

-->>

and the error line is ...

-->> hda : max request size 1024KiB <<---

in this moment system was crashed....nothing further happens

i try to boot this kernel with severel boo params option (from documentation) but with any positive result...

reporting this bug to developers will be a nice idea propably ?

hdd : seagate barracuda 5 120gb 8 mb cache.

It's a bootsplash bug. Remove the initrd line from grub/lilo, and reboot.

I'm getting the same thing with 2.6.3 vanilla with self-patched bootsplash. Anybody know if initrd is broken in general, or if it's strictly a bootsplash thing? I kind of can't just disable my initrd (my root is on LVM2), but I could live without bootsplash...

Also using the vanillas...
I waited for the 2.6.3 release and skipped all rc because of the broken bootsplash patch. Now with the final relase I just patched it myself and now... :(
Btw - had to kill the whole bootsplash stuff because on the other consoles there were still the images in the background and the machine crashed right after switching into another console.

I hope for a new patch.... want my penguin back :)
