Stresslinux community

hi, i really want to use stress linux for system tests.
But i'm not able to pxe boot stresslinux, it always hangs at "vesafb: scrolling: redraw"
do you have any idea how i can solve this problem?

another thing is the pxelinux.cfg/default file, could you please have a look and correct the errors, there is an option "initrd" but in the .msg file there is written "noinitrd"

is the mailing list still active? i always get 404 errors if i access the list archives!

First of all I want to say thanks to everyone who worked on this project... It sounds like a really great thing to add to my Linux toolkit, but I can't get it working on one of my systems!

I get the same thing as above on boot...

I'm running on a VIA EPIA EK10000G 1Ghz mainboard with a 1 GHz VIA Luke CoreFusion processor. On boot, I get:

Quote:

vesafb: , , (OEM: VIA PN800/PN880
)
vesafb: VBE version 3.0
vesafb: protect mode interface info at c000:adcc
vesafb: pmi: set display start = c00cae1a, set palette = c00cae8b
vesafb: VBIOS/hardware supports DDC2 transfers
vesafb: monitor limits: vf = 75 Hz, hf = 81 kHz, clk = 140 MHz
vesafb: scrolling: ywrap using protected mode interface, yres_virtual=9830

then it stops...

I saw in another post that I should try this command on boot:

Quote:

stress video=vesafb:640x480-32@60,nomtrr,ywrap

but I just get:

Quote:

vesafb: unrecognized option notmr (NOTE: this is missing an r ??)
vesafb: , , (OEM: VIA PN800/PN880
)
vesafb: VBE version 3.0
vesafb: VBIOS/hardware supports DDC2 transfers
vesafb: monitor limits: vf = 75 Hz, hf = 81 kHz, clk = 140 MHz
vesafb: scrolling: redraw

Then it seeks the CD for a little while and stops.

Any help would be appreciated..

Thanks
