Hello,
I upgraded to CentOS 5.1 and everything went smoothly (Thanks for the awesome work!). But after rebooting, I get the following error:
EDAC MC: Ver: 2.0.1 Nov 30 2007 EDAC e7xxx: error reporting device not found:vendor 8086 device 0x2541 (broken BIOS?)
I found http://edacbugs.buttersideup.com/show_bug.cgi?id=21 with google but no solution. Is it safe to ignore the error or remove the EDAC module? I read their wiki but I'm new to this and I don't want to break anything?
Please advice on what to do next?
Thank you so much.

It's safe to not load EDAC at all, but also safe to leave it loaded and ignore the error (I'd actually call it a warning). If the functionality is very important to your then you might want to do as EDAC suggests and investigate BIOS upgrades (or just have a look at the relevant BIOS settings).

I think I will do as you suggest and just ignore it for now. Thank you very much.
