If any of those below help you, please do not forget to inform about this or add your hardware to the list below.
NMI interrupts[edit]
Some hardware doesn't handle NMI interrupts correctly, and a machine oopses on boot.
Solution: try boot it with nmi_watchdog=0
At least the following hardware is known to be faulty/have problems with it:
- HP DL140G3 (OpenVZ Bug #514)
- HP DL180G6
APIC problems[edit]
Some nvidia chipsets are known to have buggy APIC. In this case user can experience different strange problems like crashes/hangs on boot, or peripheral device problems (like non-working ethernet adapter)
Solution: try boot your kernel with 'noapic' option.
At least the following hardware is known to be faulty/have problems with it:
- Tyan S5372 motherboard and e1000 adapters (Forum thread #2213)
