Hi,
Cent OS 5.5 x64 does not boot on certain AMD-based servers. Following error is displayed:
Code: 8b 72 40 48 8d 4c 24 1c 48 8b 7a 20 ba c4 01 00 00 e8 5f 77 RIP [<ffffffff8008192f>] cpuid4_cache_lookup+0x256/0x356 RSP <ffff810104737d60> CR2: 000000000040 <0>Kernel panic -- not syncing: Fatal exception This issue was noticed on Dell PowerEdge R715 with AMD Opteron 12-core processor. Is there any kernel specific patch which addresses this issue?
Thanks, Anumeha

Have you tried installing the most recent release (5.8 or 6.3 depending on your requirements)?
5.5 is pretty ancient and only the current code is supported for a given major revision number (ie CentOS5 or CentOS6 at this time given that CentOS5 is now end of life).

I have CentOS - it's probably 6.2 - running fine on a Dell R715 right now.

Thanks. I will indeed install Cent OS 5.8 and see if that resolves the issue. RHEL 5 had released some kernel-xen patch to address this issue. So, just wanted to know if a similar thing is available for CentOS.

Yes, if anything is incorporated into the main EL5 or EL6 lines upstream, it is also incorporated into CentOS. We build what they release.
