From: Sjors van der Pluijm on 4 Feb 2010 04:40 Hi, I'm reinstalling a system that has been running debian for at least 2 years. Installation goes fine, but while doing an upgrade to squeeze it gives me kerneloops (see attached document). I seriously doubt this is a software problem. The system occasionally freezes and kernel panics occur. Any idea where to look? Thanks

I used to have a computer that worked fine for about six months, then all of a sudden, for no apparent reason, it just wouldn't boot. It would get a SCSI error during POST and just wouldn't boot. I took the cover off, removed all the disk drives and expansion adapters, cleaned everything thoroughly, put it back together again, and it worked fine. It would be good for about another six months. Then the same thing would happen again. And again, another good cleaning solved the problem. In your case, you might also want to remove, clean, and re-seat the memory chips too. Just make sure that there is no moisture present before you reassemble everything. Everything must be clean and dry. It can't hurt. And it might help. Maybe you'll be lucky. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmaster(a)lists.debian.org |
