Proliant DL740 hangs with sles8 (k_smp 2.4.21-190) 2004-03-06 - By Sightler, Tom
As a followup to this certification, the notes on the page say that "acpi
=oldboot" is required for the 6650 with SLES 8 (including SP2a and SP3). Andrew
, are you guys using this boot option? Have you tried it?
Later,
Tom

It may be true that Dell does not certify SuSE, but it's also true that SuSE
does certify on Dell hardware and the 6650 is specifically listed on the SuSE
website as certified with SLES 7 and SLES 8. Take a look at:
http://www.suse.com/de/business/certifications/certified_hardware/dell/pe6650
/index.html
I would think that SuSE would be the proper channel for the best support (or
perhaps SuSE via Oracle). If SuSE is not very responsive to this issue it
would suprise me.
Later,
Tom
