Hi,

In fact, I don't really believe in a hardware problem like a false contact on a temp sensor.
I also noticed that a boot time, it stays blocked at "waiting 15s for scsi device to settle" during arround 10 min what would indicate that it's more an OS / driver problem.
In my previous mail, I indicated that it runs under 4.2-stable, in fact it was 4.2-release. I updated the system to 4.3-rc2, which has a mly driver code 5 month older (2001-03) than on 4.2-release (2000-10). I'm waiting to see what will happen.

thanx for your help
