Server :: Unable To Use Northbridge EDAC Amd64 On HDAMA Mobo?
Oct 1, 2010
I have a 'Rackable Systems' server with an HDAMA mobo - Dual CPU Opteron 250 2.4GHz with 2x memory modules per CPU. It seems to run fine, but it hangs every hour or so! I am running Ubuntu 64-bot 10.10, which is currently a beta release so I haven't discounted that as the problem yet, but suspect it unlikely. However, I am downloading 10.04 as I type...dmesg spits out lots of awful messages like these:
[ 1314.920127] EDAC MC1: CE - no information available: amd64_edacError Overflow
[ 1315.920047] Northbridge Error, node 0, core: 0
[ 1315.920060] ECC/ChipKill ECC error.
[ 1315.920066] EDAC amd64 MC0: CE ERROR_ADDRESS= 0x1484410
[ 1315.920082] EDAC MC0: CE page 0x1484, offset 0x410, grain 0, syndrome 0x11c1, row 0, channel 0, label "": amd64_edac
(there are variations on the node, core, address, offset an syndrome etc.)I have tried swapping CPUs over and running with only CPU.I have also swapped all the memory around in almost every permutation.Another worrying symptom is that when I run memtest86+ from a boot disk, it shows zero errors up until the point where the server turns itself off without warning - it hasn't yet completed the test...

I built this computer recently
AMD IIX6 1090T cpu
ASUS M4A89GTD PRO USB3 MB
2- 4GIG DDR3
1- 2GIG DDR3
OS DEBIAN SQUEEZE
I only recently started using and noticed thes errors.
I checked my system bios, ECC was not enabled because, when I setup mobo I selected system defaults instead of doing them manually. So I enabled them.
The message has not gone away.
I looked up the message and it shows in bug list.

1. Had I have enabled Ecc before installing Debian, would I be getting this message.
2.How do I apply patch.
3. I only have 3mem sticks instead of 4' should I take out the 3rd or add another?

I used my computer this morning, but when I returned this evening, I am unable to reach the internet. Also the light on the mobo where the ethernet cable is plugged in is steady yellow.
My limited experience would tell me it is a hardware failure, but it seems so strange with nothing happening during the day. How might I best diagnose the problem?

I have a Phenom II X4 955 box running 8G RAM. Now I'm planning building a Phenom II X6 box running 16G RAM. But the 4G module/stick is very expensive, not easy to find. However most mobo can take max 4 sticks. I can't find mobo board on market except server taking 8 sticks.

Getting the following errors on a new server:
They appear randomly while the system is idle and in use. The system configuration is as follows:
Running the latest Centos 5.5plus kernel (b/c we are using XFS)
The errors appear randomly several times a day. Tried removing some memory, but no combination sees to cause the error to stop.
I see this error posted in many places all over the web - some claim faulty Ram, faulty CPU, faulty mobo, and kernel bug.
Has anyone seen this error and been able to nail it down?

It was a long time since my last post on this forum. The reason for this was that since FC7 I've moved to Debian Etch and then to Ubuntu, but now I'm back trying FC12 amd64 on my machine and seen how it changed.Almost everything is going well until now. After almost two years I see that a great development was made to build and gui to yum, but synaptic is still superior, imho.
Well, as I said, everything is going well with one exception: the *.tar.gz files.
Doesn't matter if I use the gui or the cli. If I try to compress or decompress any file to tar.gz it fails with the error message bellow. All other file types work perfectly.
Code:
/bin/gtar: Child returned status 1
/bin/gtar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
As I said, I'm running FC12 amd64. Gnome environment.

The way I usually boot Linux distros, and this has worked for every distro I have tried up to Kubuntu 10.10, was to install Grub2 on an extended partition, run "dd if=/dev/sda5 of=linux.bin bs=512 count=1", and then adding that bin file to my Windows boot.ini. What usually happens after is that I get the Grub2 menu after selecting it from the Windows Bootloader.
The problem is, with the latest Squeeze AMD64, all I get when I do this is a static cursor and the computer is frozen and I have to hit the reset button.I mounted the Linux partition with Ext2IFS (mkfs.ext3 -I128 /dev/sda5 to get 128KB inodes), and I can see that the Squeeze installer did indeed install Grub2, because I can see the files in their respective directories.

I installed the Nvidia driver for the on board GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a the "Debian way", according to this link Debian Nvidia Howto. The problem is that the only available screen resolutions are 640x480 & 320x240 and I need something more like 1024x768. The driver is installed correctly, or at least is properly recognized, as in Nvidia Xserver settings, GPU0 appears as GeForce 7025 / nForce 630a.
Here's the xorg.conf file.
Code:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "Layout0"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
[code]....
..only causes gdm not to start.On my Ubuntu partition, I have working the proprietary Nvidia driver (file: NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-260.19.36.run), and have had no problems from it at all. I was going to install this same driver onto Debian when I read several pages advising to go the "Debian way".

Hey, im new to linux but i like it very much. recently built decent computer and put Mint 10 on it. every thing works fine but get a strange message after I install the driver for nvidia video card. Message is an edac error "device not found" E7xxx.? Not sure of any of it. System still works fine. Graphics are working great. Also the linux mint boot screen changed to some generic looking screen that says Linux Mint 10 in an old dot matrix type format.
Here's what I have:
Tyan i7501 s2735
(2) 2.4 Xeon cpu's
320 gb seagate hd
2gb ram

Background info: Trying to get the i82975x module (drivers/edac/i82975x normally) on CentOS 5.4I'm using the latest stock kernel. I was trying to get edac monitoring working when I noticed that I couldn't find the i82975x module. I downloaded the full kernel source and it's not an option to enable. I realize it's a older kernel, but I noticed i5400 edac support was there, which is a newer chipset.

After the latest update of Debian Wheezy, about three days ago, one of my machines won't boot anymore. The update was done by:
Code: Select all/usr/sbin/update-smart-drivedb
apt-get update
apt-get -y upgrade
apt-get -y autoremove
I get the error message: "Alert! /dev/disk/by-uuid/71c... does not exist. Dropping to a shell!"
The dir /dev/disk contains only "by-id" and "by-path".
I booted with the rescue system, dropped into a shell and recreated the ramdisk with
Code: Select alldpkg-reconfigure linux-image-3.2.0-4-amd64
dpkg-reconfigure grub-pc
But without success. On another machine the update went flawlessly.

For whatever reason, I cannot for the life of me install server amd64 on my server machine. I have a quad-core phenom 1st gen. USB/CD/HD, it doesn't matter what media its from. It randomly freezes on unpacking or configuring, the steps after configuring the network. If I shutdown, I can sometimes get further, or sometimes its shorter. I can't have it connected to the internet when installing or it goes bonkers. I have tried most of the fixes suggested around the forums, to no avail.
Now here is the crazy thing, I installed Ubuntu 64 Desktop with no problems. So for now, I will continued to install desktop and using tasksel to change it to a server.Oh BTW, I just found out installing desktop works, but I have had this server install problem since Gutsy. The 32bit version installs just fine.

This has really thrown me. I have been using Ubuntu for a few years now and have just decided to upgrade my home server with a bigger hard drive. I have opted for a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.10 x64 server edition and have plugged my new SATA hard drive and existing IDE CDRom drive into my box.
The install disk burns fine and verifys itself. I have also checked that it is ok as part of the install and again it shows as all ok. The install starts fine and I can partition the drive (either mannually or guided) abd the base system starts to install but then at around 50% (roughly) I get a pop up box saying:
"Please insert the disc labeled: 'Ubuntu-Server 9.10 _Karmic Koala_ - Release amd64 (20091027.2)' in the drive /cdrom/' and press enter. Pressing enter does nothing. I can't eject the CD any way and obvioulsy have no second disk! I have burnt a fresh downloaded iso but again have the same problem.

Currently our cluster is based on AMD opteron processors. We are going to add more nodes however I want to know is it good to add Intel xeon processors. They both claim to be x86 compatible however I don't know if they are really math each other.Does a program compiled on Intel xeon really works on opteron (amd64)?

I'm about to add pci ethernet card. Currently the mobo nic is eth0. When I add the new card will it by definition be eth1 (or will it become eth0 and the mobo nic become eth1)? The broader question is: how are the "eth's" numbered at boot time? If I were to add a 2nd pci nic, could I predict which would be eth1 and which would be eth2 (based on pci slot number??)? Is there somewhere to readup on this to get a broader understanding?

On motherboard and GPU selection. I'm planning on an i5 on a Gigabyte P55 AUD4 board (think that's the numbers). I was thinking about an NVidia graphics card but the ATI 5775 has also been suggested. I'd thought NVidia was better for Linux but someone said this wasn't the case unless you were talking 3D. (I'll be dual booting windows, so windows 3D performance is relevant for midrange gaming) Can you advise on a good choice of graphics card that will be compatible with SUSE, +quiet, low-mid price bracket. ($150-200 Australian, about $100-$130 USD I guess.)

I would like to know as to how to save a boot order sequence...In my desktop PC I have a gigabyte MOBO housing Pentium Dual Core processor...
Whenever I have to boot from an external USB , I have to press del at boot , go into CMOS features and change the Order of Booting 1-DVD 2 USB-FDD 3. USB-HDD 4. Local Hard Disk
The problem is that everytime I have to repeat the above to boot from USB...I am also confused between USB - HDD and USB - FDD...Some utils partition and use the USB like a HDD while it is not the case with FDD I guess
How do you freeze the boot order so that on inserting any USB / External HDD at boot , the system should give it the priority over local hard disk..
Also in Giga MOBO I noticed that there is no "generic USB" mentioned in BIOS...It lists the USB device by name say "Kingston Data Traveler " "Sandisk Micro" etc ....
What should I do to make the boot order permanent?

I am a real debian noob. I may be too old for this (things have changed a bit since I first started hacking fortran in 1971), but will try one more time.I am editing this original post to clarify: my debian install will not boot to GUI. It will boot to a shell under the advanced option.I have tried loading debian 8.1.0 from DVD. The system will install, but will not boot after the install.On a regular reboot, the last command is fsck. Then it hangs.
On a recovery mode reboot, the last output is:[7.940682] FAT-fs (sdal) utf8 is not a recommended IO charset for FAT files (my handwriting is bad - may not be 100%). - then it will hang.The problem may well be the result of UEFI and the m5a97 R2.0 mobo I am using with my amd 8230E processor. I've been doing some research on UEFI and archlinux. It is a bit of a challenge for me.
I've managed to load ubuntu on this drive. I burned a debian 8.2.0 live DVD, but it will hang also. debian live will hang before it gets to a GUI. The debian live will run the GUI desktop environment with the amd64 fail safe option. When I install debian from the live DVD (the 1.4gb DVD, vs the regular 4.0 gb DVD), it will hang before it gets to the GUI.

I replaced my motherboard and processor but am keeping my old hard drive without reformatting it. Things work well except that I cannot connect to the internet. I am thinking that I just need to reconfigure the connection to see the new network hardware. I tried /etc/init.d/networking restart but that doesn't do anything. What am I missing? By the way it is a wired connection - not wireless.

Had to swap out my sandy bridge mobo. The new mobo is more or less the same. Interestingly the NIC is being detected as eth1. Curious if anyone knows how to make it eth0?

Somehow Fedora 12 does not find one of my Sata drives (Seagate Barracuda 500GB) on the motherboard (Asus P5Q pro). The drive is attached to SATA_E1, which is a Silicon Image Serial ATA RAID connector. The drive currently has Windows Vista 64-bit OS which has been working fine. Fedora install loads correctly without errors, but only shows my RAID system on SATA ports 1-6.
WHAT I HAVE TRIED:
I have tried showing RAID as IDE in the BIOS, and setting it to compatible mode. Still does not detect.
I have tried setting the drives to ACPI mode in BIOS. No effect.
OTHER INFO:
I'm installing the x86_64 version of Fedora 12. I have run the Debian i686 installer and it picks up this volume without issue.

I've just had to change the MOBO and trying to get the serial port working, I see from previous posts there are some problems lurking in the past.
setserial -g /dev/ttyS*
/dev/ttyS0, UART: 16550A, Port: 0x03f8, IRQ: 4
/dev/ttyS1, UART: unknown, Port: 0x02f8, IRQ: 3
/dev/ttyS2, UART: unknown, Port: 0x03e8, IRQ: 4
/dev/ttyS3, UART: unknown, Port: 0x02e8, IRQ: 3
but I'm not seeing anything from a GPS receiver in NMEA at 4800 no par 1 stp I know that was working about a year ago. I think udev was not helping ,as I was getting permission denied to the com port, I added myself to group dialout. and no message on startup now
I need to be able to talk to a piece of kit with 9600 baud and nothing. I have win32 s/w to drive it , but it falls over in wine. My laptop still has win7 on it in a tiny partition but no 9w d connector and I'm waiting for a USB converter cable. Too many variables ! I'd forgotten all the hassle of having to install drivers just to get basic things running. But as the stupid thing couldn't manage using the driver for my NIC, I was stuck with hyper-terminal, and nothing from the GPS board @4800 or another piece of equipment running at 9600. I suspect the com port on the new mobo doesn't wan to play

I have replaced my old mobo and CPU on a working 11.4 installation and was expecting some issues but not this.Contrary to expectations, the existing install booted fine first time but then would not reboot with the above grub error. As I understand it, this error usually occurs with old BIOS and new large hard disks which the BIOS can't cope with.OK, so I eventually decided that it would be a good idea anyway to reinstall openSUSE (/home is on a separate partition). During installation, I noticed a warning that Grub error 18 might prevent booting because the bootloader was on a partition larger than 128Gb. I proceeded anyway and the beast booted, but then refused to reboot today with that error.
Now I understand that a possible workaround is to install in a special, smallish boot partition but I'm reluctant to reinstall again, and don't understand why this should be necessary with a modern (Intel H67) motherboard.Other info that might be relevant: no dual boot involved, three SATA HDs with grub installed in MBR of first one (sda) and openSUSE installed to sdb1. Also, it cold booted fine this morning and the error only occurred after I edited the bootloader in YAST to change the VGA mode (it had complained about it during the cold boot).

I have 10.04 LTS installed onto an SSD and have a spinning disk for crud, and my brother wants to give me his old GA-PH67A-UD3 and 8GB of RAM if I buy an i7 2600 to put in it. The thing is, I'm happy with my GA-965P-DS3 with Q6600, so I don't actually need an upgrade. So, can I get away with replacing the mobo, chip, and RAM and putting the SSD in the equivalent SATA port on the new mobo (/dev/sda), and will it cope? Will the kernel detect a new board and chip and carry on accordingly? I'll have to remount my crud drive to the same mount point it expects, and if my user account as the same UID as the old system, I'm hoping that might cope, too. Of course, I might be suggesting complete evil, and if this was Windows, I wouldn't even dare think about it, but I have a sneaking suspicion that Linux might cope with this kind of change where Windows would fall over in a heap.
