weird problem and kernel panic after uping to 1.9
Hello dear proxmox team!
Usually i get answers for my questions here on the free community support forum and i greatly appreciate it. Thank you for your project and work.
I run 2 proxmox servers in production. one of them was updated to 1.9 without any problems. i run there openvz containers and kvm linux guests. (was small issue
on this server with hpacucli and new hpsa driver but got resolved very fast)
on the other server there is something very weird going on.
1. after cold reboot i run into continuously repeating grub error: Loading stage 1.5, after i press ctrl+alt+delete it boots fine and runs fsck.
What could be reason of this? i did run grubinstall /dev/sda1 (thats the /boot mount)
to be completely honest i should say, that i think, that this error comes out of the second error (it explains why i have to make a cold restart to the server via intel remote management console)
2. after upgrading to 1.9 and 2.6.32-6-pve kernel, this server started to crash with kernel panic (@ random time after reboot), so i had to boot with 2.6.32-4-pve kernel and it seems it runs well atm.
in the kernel panic messages i remember only something about net_if send blablabla... (i know i had take a pic of this error, but as it is production server, i had not enough time to think about this)
on this server there are openvz containers and (i suspect this one to be the root of the problem) one kvm guest with ms windows server 2000.
If You guys need those kernel panic rows i will reproduce this crash tonight (can't do this @ worktime) and attach it here.

there are problems with virtio for hdd, but network drivers for XP suit well. mby there is some change in kvm in 1.9 that runs in conflict with them.
