Suse 9.1 Online Update Problem - System wont boot
i'm kind of new to linux, so please excuse me if i word this a bit wrong.
Ive just updated my suse 9.1 system to kde 3.5 using the online update section in yast. After the update had finished, i restarted the machine, and now, when it boots up, i get:
hda: dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0x24
hda: DMA Interrupt Recovery
hda: lost interrupt
hda: dma_timer_expiry: dma status == 0x24
hda: DMA Interrupt Recovery
hda: lost interrupt
and so on. Thats as far as it gets - once it hits that point, its a constant loop with them 3 lines being repeated (to see if it was constant, i left it in boot for an hour, and it still did that.
Does anyone know what this is or how i can fix it - ive tried searching google, but everything on there is exactly the same, and doesnt even mention what causes it, let alone how to fix it.
thanks
