Cleaning up Bootlog - FC2

[Harryc]

I've been slowly cleaning up the FC 2 bootlog on my machine. I have listed those boot entries that I have not been able to resolve as yet. Has anyone had any luck getting rid of any of these errors? How did you do it? Thank-you.

Jul 5 15:28:32 localhost kernel: vesafb: probe of vesafb0 failed with error -6
Edit: Another bug - https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=125890

Jul 5 15:28:32 localhost kernel: ide: Assuming 33MHz system bus speed for PIO modes; override with idebus=xx

Jul 5 15:28:33 localhost kernel: agpgart: Unsupported Via chipset (device id: 3188), you might want to try agp_try_unsupported=1.

Jul 5 15:28:33 localhost kernel: cdrom: open failed.
Edit: Well, apparently this one can be ignored if there is no CDROM in the drive on boot. - http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-test-list/2004-May/msg01193.html

for the ide prob, check your bios settings for the ide bus mode. also use hdparm to check if udma is being used: /sbin/hdparm -d /dev/hda
Oh, and while your at it, post the results of: /sbin/hdparm -Tt /dev/hda

Thanks for the reply. My linux drive is hdd by the way. (secondary/slave)

IDE Bus Mode is set to Auto in BIOS. It lists PIO 4, Multiword 2 DMA and UDMA 5 as supported. WIndows XP lists the drive as running at UDMA5. Is there some other BIOS parameter that I could check that is pertinent?

/sbin/hdparm -d /dev/hdd
[root@localhost root]# /sbin/hdparm -d /dev/hdd
/dev/hdd:
using_dma = 1 (on)


/sbin/hdparm -Tt /dev/hdd
[root@localhost root]# /sbin/hdparm -Tt /dev/hdd
/dev/hdd:
