Hi Bruce,

Thank you.

Yes, I am running the latest BIOS available on Intel's site:

KG3822P.BIO (9/25/2009) Status: Latest

I am not aware of any workaround for the reboot problem on that particular board and do not have one of the boards myself. I've forwarded the issue on to a list of people who may be able to help. In the meantime have you tried re-flashing with the latest BIOS?

Kernel still hangs upon reboot.

Hello,

Bruce, it looks like that is coming from here:
http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/sb/CS-008326.htm

Is there any workaround for the reboot problem?
http://www.gossamer-
threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1141848?do=post_view_threaded

It looks like there was a similar bug on 965 motherboards, in which, Intel
issued a BIOS update that fixed it:
http://lkml.indiana.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0610.2/2215.html

Is Intel aware of this-- is there any communication/channels a customer
can utilize (besides LKML) to ask Intel about the status/ETA on a fix for
this issue?

Justin.
