Title: Doorbell Error at bootup ??
Post by: steve288 on January 23, 2009, 03:46:00 PM

We have installed 7 on a new server IBM eserver xSeries 335, (new to us anyway). We are attempting to move from 6 to 7.  The new server is giving the following error when it boots up. The system hangs here for about a minute or more then continues on and from all looks appears to be working fine. What does this error mean and can I (should I) remove it.

Thanks.

Steve,

Could you please open a bug detailing hardware and what steps you have taken so far ?

Thanks.

I'd suggest that you ask google and IBM.
