Summary: Kernel hangs with "Marking TSC unstable due to TSC halts
in idle"
Product: Platform Specific/Hardware
Version: 2.5
KernelVersion: 2.6.28
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: blocking
Priority: P1
Component: i386
AssignedTo: platform_i386 at kernel-bugs.osdl.org
ReportedBy: rantingman at gmail.com
Latest working kernel version: 2.6.10
Earliest failing kernel version: 2.6.26
Distribution: Debian Sid
Hardware Environment: Celeron-266 (Covington) in QDI Legend V motherboard,
640MB RAM
Software Environment: Debian Sid
Problem Description:
This machine has been running 2.6.10 since it was current. I recently installed
the Debian distribution kernel of 2.6.26 and got this error:
Marking TSC unstable due to TSC halts in idle
The kernel hangs at that point (just after enumerating the usb and ata
controllers). To check that the problem is not Debian-specific I downloaded the
2.6.28 source and compiled it myself: the problem is identical.
Neither the CPU nor the RAM is overclocked; FSB is 66MHz.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Install kernel version 2.6.26 or 2.6.28
2. Attempt to boot from either of the above kernel versions
