Description Chris Denice 2011-06-04 13:23:03 CEST
Exploring the sysrq commands shows kernel errors on firewire-core and
firewire-ohci modules. The concerned hardware device is

01:00.4 FireWire (IEEE 1394): ALi Corporation M5253 P1394 OHCI 1.1 Controller

I solved the pb by blacklisting them after having mounted my partition by other
means. I guess I am a bit unlucky on that one, but that certainly needs to be
reported in the install notes because is a no-go install for those having that
card :-/

That precise card is known to have pb with the firewire module, but up to now,
it was not imparing the kernel to boot:

Cheers,
Chris.

Hello sorry for the delay, bug still valid with the updates ?

P.S: the link https://ieee1394.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Juju_Migration in the Mandriva's bug doesn't work any more.
