[Starlingx-discuss] Compute boot-loop

Ok, shame on me! 
I have to read all the hints from you and realy check all the details... I have an AMD EPYC 7601 (32 cores), and I didn’t realized that the point "IOMMU" in my BIOS the generic term for VT-d is, so it is all the time leave disabled -.-

After enabled this option, my VM seems to run, currently booted but still in "In-Test" mode... we will see...

Thx for help! Volker...

Ack Yong.

I received this initial internal response:  "The usual cause of this 
error is when they don't enable VT-d (Intel Virtualization Technology 
for Directed I/O) in the BIOS for the compute hosts."

Volker, please let us know when you've confirmed that.
